Answer:
y = -2.8x +69.4
Step-by-step explanation:
The 2-point form of the equation of a line can be used to find the equation of the line through points (3, 61) and (13, 33). The general form of it is ...
y = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)·(x -x1) +y1
For the given points, this is ...
y = (33 -61)/(13 -3)·(x -3) +61
y = -28/10(x -3) +61
y = -2.8x +69.4 . . . . . the equation of the line through the given points

<em>Comment on the problem</em>
A "line of best fit" is one that minimizes some measure of deviation from the line. Usually, what is minimized is the square of the deviations. Choosing two points to draw the line through may be convenient, but does not necessarily result in a line of best fit.

Answer:
320
Step-by-step explanation:
5, 20, 80,5,20,80,5, comma, 20, comma, 80, comma is not a geometric sequence.
However, if you mean 5, 20, 80 it is a geometric sequence.
It is being multiplyed by 4 each time
so 80*4=320
The next number would be 320.
Answer:
20
Step-by-step explanation:
20 x 2 =40
40 is under 58 and the closest to 58
the next 10 is 30 and 30 x 30 is over 58 with 60
Given:
p = 7.6% = 0.076, the percentage of people who stay overnight at the hospital.
E = 1.5% = 0.015, margin of error
95% confidence interval.
The standard error is
Es =

where
n = the sample size.
The margin of error is

where
z* = 1.96 at the 95% confidence level.
Because the margin of error is given, there is no need to calculate it.
The 95% confidence interval is
p +/- E = 0.076 +/- 0.015 = (0.061, 0.091) = (6.1%, 9.1%)
Answer:
The 95% confidence interval is between 6.1% and 9.1%.
