Hi. You could easily find the slope-intercept form equation if you plot the points and do data fitting. You can use this with a software like MS Excel. The figure is attached in the image. Hence, the equation is y = 33x + 132, where y is the number of riders and x is the number of hours of Tara's shift.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
3 minutes 59.1 seconds = (3*60) + 59.1 seconds = 180 + 59.1 seconds
=> 239.1 seconds
4 minutes 3.8 seconds = (4*60) + 3.8 seconds = 240 + 3.8 seconds
=> 243.8 seconds
4 minutes 1.6 seconds = (4*60) + 1.6 seconds = 240 + 1.6 seconds
=> 241.6 seconds
Mean = Sum of data / No. of Data
Mean = 239.1 + 243.8 + 241.6 / 3
Mean = 724.5 / 3
Mean = 241.5 seconds
<u>In Minutes and Seconds:</u>
= 241.5 / 60 = 4.025 minutes
= 4 minutes + 0.025 minutes
= 4 minutes + (0.025 * 60) seconds
= 4 minutes 1.5 seconds
