Answer:

y = -1/2x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

A line in slope-intercept form in y = mx + b

"m" is the slope

"b" is the y-intercept

x and y represent points on the graph

To write an equation, you need "m" and "b".

We already know m = -1/2

The point (0, 2) is the y-intercept. The y-intercept occurs when x = 0.

Points are in the form (x , y), so x = 0 and y = 2.

Therefore b = 2.

Substitute m = -1/2 and b = 2 into the equation:

y = mx + b

y = -1/2x + 2

\mathbb P(286
\mathbb P(286

The empirical rule says that approximately 68% of any normal distributed data set lies within one standard deviation of the mean.

\mathbb P(-2
\implies\mathbb P(-2

The same rule states that about 95% lies within two standard deviations of the mean. Using this rule, and the fact that any normal distribution is symmetric about its mean, you have

\mathbb P(-2
0.95=2\mathbb P(-2
\implies\mathbb P(-2

\implies\mathbb P(-2
