Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Rearranging the weights in ascending order, it becomes

5.4, 5.7, 5.7, 5.8, 6.0, 6.6, 7.1, 7.1, 7.5, 7.5, 8.1, 8.7, 9.3, 9.4, 9.4

The formula for determining the percentile is expressed as

n = (P/100)N

Where

n represents the value of the given percentile

P represents the given percentile

N represents the number of items(weights)

From the information given, the number of items, n is 15

P = 53

Therefore,

n = (53/100) × 15

n = 7.95

n = 8

Therefore, the weight that represents the 53rd percentile is the 8th value. It becomes 7.1

53rd percentile is 7.1

Find the slope of the line that goes through the given points (8,5) (6,7)
vazorg [7]
To find the slope of a line that goes through given points with known coordinates, you divide the subtraction of the y of the second point minus the y of the first point, by the subtraction of the x of the second point minus the x of the first point:
m = (yB-yA) / (xB-xA)

Let A(8,5) and B(6,7).
With yB = 7; yA = 5; xB = 6; xA = 8
m = (7-5) / (6-8)
m = 2/-2
m = -1

So the slope of the line that goes through the given points (8,5) and (6,7) is m = -1.

I've added a pic of the line with both points under the answer.

Hope this Helps! :)
