Step-by-step:
Use slope formula to find the slope. (y - y)/(x - x)
Make sure the x and y in front of the minus is a pair that goes together, as well as the x and y behind the minus sign. So
8 - -4 goes on top, that's 12
0 - -1 goes under, thats 1
12/1 is the slope which is just 12. Use either point to fill in the second x and the second y in the point-slope equation. m is the slope.
y - y = m(x - x)
y - 8 = 12(x - 0)
y - 8 = 12x
Simplify. Combine like terms
12x - 9x = 3x
7 - 15 = -8
3x - 8 is your answer
hope this helps
Median = middle number
Total ten numbers so
median = (17 + b)/2
given median = 18
so
(17 + b)/ 2 = 18
17+b = 36
b = 36 - 17
b = 19
Now you have the data set
7, a , 12, 15 , 17, 19, 20, 22, 24 , 25
Mean = (7 + a + 12+ 15 +17 + 19 + 20 + 22 +24 +25)/ 10
Given mean = 17
so
17 = (7 + a + 12+ 15 +17 + 19 + 20 + 22 +24 +25)/ 10
17 = (a + 161) / 10
a + 161 = 170
a = 170 - 161
a = 9
answer
a = 9
b = 19
