Slope = (10 - 5)/(-9 + 15) = 5/6
y = mx + b where m = slope and b = y-intercept
b = y - mx
b = 5 - (5/6) (-15)
b = 5 +12.5
b = 17.5
Equation y = 5/6 x + 17.5
Y-intercept = 17.5
X-intercept when y = 0
So
5/6 x + 17.5 = 0
5/6 x = -17.5
x = (-17.5) (6/5)
x = -21
Answer
Y intercept (0, 17.5 )
X intercept (-21 , 0)
Answer:
Y=-4x+8
Step-by-step explanation:
We can adjust the data by adding 4 to everything before we calculate the statistics. Or we can calculate the statistics on the given data and just add 4 to everything at the end. We'll get the same answer either way.
Let's sort the seven data points: 5 5 5 7 7 9 10
Those add up to 48 so the mean is 48/7 = 6.9
The one in the middle is 7 so the median = 7
The mode is the most common one, mode = 5
The range is the difference between max and min, so range = 10 - 5 = 5
In the second week we add four to everything. Since that adds four to the min and max, the range doesn't change.
Answer: mean=10.9, median=11, mode=9, range=5
