Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Okay, so hopefully my crude diagram helps you visualize the problem. When in doubt, always draw a picture.
All I did was graph the points and formed a line.
Slope: It's going to be 0 because it doesn't change at all (no different y values)
(y2-y1)/(x2-x1) = (6-6) / (4-2) = 0/2 = 0
Y intercept is where the line crosses the y axis- this is also where x=0 (find it in your chart!)
Equation is y= 6; I don't know how to explain this, but trust me, it's right
Answer:
The probability is 28 % ( approx )
Step-by-step explanation:
Since, there are only two possible outcomes in every trails ( residents are in their forties or not ),
So, this is a binomial distribution,
Binomial distribution formula,
Probability of success in x trials,
Where,
p and q are probability of success and failure respectively and n is the total number of trials.
Let X be the event of resident who are in his or her forties.
Here, p = 12% = 0.12,
⇒ q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.12 = 0.88,
n = 9,
Hence, the probability that two or three of the people in the group are in their forties = P(X=2) + P(X=3)
