The equation is:
y

Explanation:
The slope-intercept form of a straight line is
y
=
m
x
+
c

In this case we have a point,
(
x
,
y
)
and the slope,
m
so all we need is a value for
c
.
Substitute into
y
=
m
x

Answer:

y= 1  1/4x -1

Step-by-step explanation:

first, plot the point (8,9)

now lets plot some more points, points that are part of this line.

rise/run 5/4, so 5 up and 4 to the right, and a point on the left, 5 down 4 to the left. I'll do that again, 5 down and 4 to the left. In other problems, do this until you find the y intercept. (which ended up being (0,-1)

slope-intercept form is mx+b

m is the slope, b is the y-intercept

in this case b is -1

the y-intercept coordinate will always have the x value being 0 so it would be (0, varies) which in this case it is (0, -1)

now lets find the value of m.

since the slope, 5/4, can not be simplified to a whole number, it'll just be 1  1/4.

m ends up being 1  1/4.

fill it in, now.

y= 1  1/4x -1

-----------------

the process to find an equation knowing only a point and the slope for future reference:

plot the points until you find a y intercept (sometimes you have to make a line and find a fraction for a y intercept)

simplify the slope

fill it into mx+b

m=slope

b= y-intercept

hopefully this was helpful

A study was done that looked at how much red meat people consumed and how long they lived. The correlation r was found to be 0.9
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the correlation r was found to be 0.98 (a value closer to 1).  

Let X =how much red meat people consumed

let Y = how long they lived.

where the x-values are the values of the deviations of co-ordinates X from Xₙ, their mean value and the y-values are the values of the deviations of co-ordinates Y from Yₙ, their mean value.

That is, x=(X−Xₙ) and y=(Y−Yₙ).

The results of this determination give values of r lying between +1 and −1, where;

+1 indicates perfect direct  correlation,

−1 indicates perfect inverse correlation and

0 indicates that no correlation exists.

Between these values, the smaller the value of r, the less is the amount of correlation which exists.

Generally, values of r in the ranges 0.7 to 1 and −0.7 to −1 show that a fair amount of correlation exists.

therefore, it can be seen that there is a perfect relationship between the quantity eaten and how long the person live

But, the correlation does not consider those that does not consume meat, and it is very hard to determined the answer to the question.

the answer is false because there are other reasons that determined longevity of life apart from meat consumption.
