How to find Gradient and y intercept

Mathematics
1 answer:
lyudmila [28]2 years ago

Gradient:

Find two points on the line and with those two points, calculate the difference in height(y coordinates) divided by the difference in width(x coordinates). If you get a positive value, then your line will be uphill.

Y-intercept:

Use y=mx+b
Find the slope first using the slope formula which is y2-y1 OVER x2-x1. Once you have that, take a point from the line and substitute the x and y coordinates along with the slope into y=mx+b.

So if your slope was 2/1 and your point was (4,8), it would be:

8=2(4)+b
8=6+b
*subtract 6 from both sides*
b=2

The seasonal output of a new experimental strain of pepper plants was carefully weighed. The mean weight per plant is 15.0 pound
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

There are 118 plants that weight between 13 and 16 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

For any normal random variable X with mean μ and standard deviation σ : X ~ Normal(μ, σ)  

This can be translated into standard normal units by :  

Z = \frac{(X - \mu)}{\sigma}

Let X be the weight of the plant  

X ~ Normal( 15 , 1.75 )  

To find : P( 13 < X < 16 )  

= P(\frac{( 13 - 15 )}{1.75} < Z < \frac{( 16 - 15 )}{1.75})

= P( -1.142857 < Z < 0.5714286 )  

= P( Z < 0.5714286 ) - P( Z < -1.142857 )  

= 0.7161454 - 0.1265490  

= 0.5895965  

So, the probability that any one of the plants weights between 13 and 16 pounds is 0.5895965  

Hence, The expected number of plants out of 200 that will weight between 13 and 16 = 0.5895965 × 200

                                            = 117.9193  

Therefore, There are 118 plants that weight between 13 and 16 pounds.
