3/4 is a equivalent fraction for 6)8
Answer:
y-intercept: (0, 5); slope: 1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope (m) is found from ...
m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)
Using the first two points in the table, this is ...
m = (8 -6)/(12 -4) = 2/8 = 1/4 . . . . . eliminates choices A and C
__
Then, the point-slope form of the equation of the line can be written as ...
y -y1 = m(x -x1)
y -6 = (1/4)(x -4) . . . fill in known values
y = 1/4x -1 +6 . . . . . add 6
y = 1/4x +5
Then the value of y when x=0 is ...
y = 0 +5 = 5
So, the y-intercept is (0, 5) and the slope is 1/4, matching the last choice.
Answer:
(a) 
(b) 
(c) 
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for calculating the equation of line in point - slope form is given as :
where m is the slope
Given from the question :
m = - 4
= 2
= 6
Substituting into the formula , we have :




Therefore :
(a) the equation of the line in point - slope form is 
(b) to write it in slope - intercept form , we will make y the subject of the formula , which will give : 
(c) the equation of line in standard form is ; 
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
the mean is given by:

In our case this is:

side note: the main difference between sample mean and population mean is in the 'context'. However, the method to calculate them is the same.
By context I mean: if this the items are taken from some larger category for example: the ages of a few 'students' from a 'class'. Here 'students' are the sample from a larger set that is 'class'. The mean of the 'few students' will be called sample mean. In contrast, if we take the mean of the ages of the whole class then this is called population mean. (population mean == mean of the whole set)
In our case we aren't told exactly where these numbers come from, is this the whole set or a sample from it, the lack of context allows us to assume that the mean can either be population mean or sample mean. So we can safely use any symbol

No, line graphs are used only to show change over time
