Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form of the equation is y - y₀ = m(x - x₀), where (x₀, y₀) is any point the line passes through and m is the slope:

m = -1

(-5, 5) ⇒ x₀ = -5, y₀ = 5

The point-slope form of the equation:

y - 5 = -1(x + 5)

So:

y - 5 = -x - 5 {add 5 to both sides}

y = -x ← the slope-intercept form of the equation

Delvig [45]

Answer:

(F.) the mode of the data for website K is greater than the mode of the data from website L

Step-by-step explanation:

Mode simply means the parameter that occurs the most.

In website K, the one that occurs the most is 8 hours while in website L, the one that occurs the most is 2 hours.

This means that mode of website K is greater than that of website L.

Thus,statement F is correct

Range is the difference between the highest value and the lowest value..

For website K, Range = 14 - 1 = 13

For website L, Range = 13 - 1 = 12

Thus,range of both websites are not the same and as such statement G is wrong.

For a symmetrical distribution, the left and right hand sides of the centre value line of the distribution have to mirror each other.

In this case neither website K nor L have that. Thus, statement H is not correct.

Skewed to the left means that more o

dot points are found to the left of the graph.

For website L, more dot points are located to the left while for website K, it's not the case. Thus, statement J is not correct

Which of the following best describes how the y values are changing over each interval?

ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

y=ax+b

a=-0.6020457867

b=-2.256697516 <------- There is your value for b, which is the answer to the problem.

You can use these values for a and b to generate an equation in slope-intercept form, which you can then enter under Y= and view the graph.

A random sample of 64 freshmen spent an average of 14 hours per week watching television. the sample standard deviation was 32 h

NemiM [27]

Answer:

+/- 1.9983

Step-by-step explanation:

The critical values for a confidence interval for the population mean, with population standard deviation not known, are obtained from the student's t distribution.

The sample size is given as 64. The degrees of freedom will thus be;

sample size - 1 = 64 - 1 = 63

The confidence level is given as 95%. The level of significance will thus be;

100 - 95 = 5%.

The area in the right-tail will thus be 2.5%. Therefore, we looking for a t-value such that the area to its right is 2.5% and the degrees of freedom being 63. From the t-tables we have;

+/- 1.9983
