Answer:
y = (4/3)x − 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Rewrite in slope-intercept form.
The slope-intercept form is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is they-intercept.
y = mx + b
Subtract 4x from both sides of the equation.
−3y = 8 − 4x
Divide each term by −3 and simplify.
Divide each term in −3y = 8 − 4x by −3.
(−3y/−3)= (8/−3) + (−4x/−3)
Cancel the common factor of −3.
y= (8/−3) + (−4x/−3)
Simplify (8/−3) + (−4x/−3)
y= (4x/3 - 8/3)
Reorder terms.
y= 4x/3 - 8/3
Using the slope-intercept form, the slope is 4/3
m = 4/3
To find an equation that is parallel, the slopes must be equal. Find the parallel line using the point-slope formula.
Use the slope 4/3 and a given point (6, −2) to substitute for and
in the point-slope form.

y − (−2) = (4/3) ⋅ (x − (6))
Simplify the equation and keep it in point-slope form.
y − (−2) = (4/3) ⋅ (x − (6))
solve for y
y = (4/3)x − 10
Answer:
The 95 percent confidence interval for the population mean is between 14.736 tons and 16.864 tons.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the population's standard deviation, so we can find the normal confidence interval.
We have that to find our level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:
Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of .
So it is z with a pvalue of , so
Now, find the margin of error M as such
In which is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.
The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 15.8 - 1.064 = 14.736 tons
The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 15.8 + 1.064 = 16.864 tons
The 95 percent confidence interval for the population mean is between 14.736 tons and 16.864 tons.
