Hello!

If a you want to find an equation of the line that is parallel to the given line, we must know that if two lines are parallel, then their slope will <em>always</em> have to be equal.

This means that the new equation must have a slope of -1/3.

Also, you would need to substitute the given point (6, 8) into the equation with the slope: -1/3 as well. Following these steps allows you to find the equation of line.

y = -1/3x + b (6, 5)

5 = -1/3(6) + b

5 = -2 + b (add 2 to both sides)

7 = b

Therefore, the equation of the line is y = -1/3x + 7.

Answer:

The best estimate for the proportion of ticket buyers that make purchases using their smart phones is 0.45.

Step-by-step explanation:

We take the estimate from the website, and expand for all buyers, to find the proportion that use their smartphones.

400 users of the website were randomly sampled from the existing database and 180 were found to have used their smart phones.

180/400 = 0.45

The best estimate for the proportion of ticket buyers that make purchases using their smart phones is 0.45.
