Step-by-step explanation:

In the equation y=mx+b, 'm' is the slope of the line and 'b' is the y-intercept.  

First, you should find the slope of the line.  To do this, use the equation M=y2-y1/x2-x1.  Using the two given points (3,6) and (8,4), you can solve for M.  

M=4-6/8-3

M=-2/5 (-0.4 in decimal form)

Now, your equation is y=-0.4x+b

Next you must solve for b to find the y-intercept.  You can do this by subbing one of the given points in for x and y.  

Using the point (3,6):

y=-0.4x+b

6=-0.4(3)+b

6=-1.2+b

Isolate b:

6+1.2=b

b=7.2

And now you have the equation of the line!

y=-0.4x+7.2 (IN FRACTION FORM: y=-2/5x+36/5)

Heron Island is a coral cay in the Great Barrier Reef. Around Heron Island (and elsewhere in Australia) there are 2 color morphs
kobusy [5.1K]

In case A, as the error would be a difference of 1, the assumption could be mantained, but in case B the difference will be bigger, showing that the ratio is not 3:1 but 4:1.

<h3><u>Ratios</u></h3>

Given that a preliminary study was carried out to test the hypothesis that the ratio of white to dark herons on the island was 3:1, but A) a small census found 16 white morphs and 4 dark, to determine if the assumption of a 3 :1 ratio could be rejected, and B) to determine the same question if the census were larger with 160 white morphs and 40 dark, the following calculations must be made:

A)

  • 3 + 1 = 4
  • 16 + 4 = 20
  • 4 = 20
  • 3 = X
  • 60 / 4 = X
  • 15 = X
  • Therefore, as the error would be a difference of 1, the assumption could be mantained.

B)

  • 3 + 1 = 4
  • 160 + 40 = 200
  • 150 = 3:1
  • In this case, the difference will be bigger, showing that the ratio is not 3:1 but 4:1.

A restaurant's small salt shakers contain 0.6 ounces of salt. It's large shakers hold twice as much. The shakers are filled from
Ratling [72]
First you have to multiply the 0.6 of the small shakers times two which gives us 1.2 the amount of salt of the large shakers. divide the 18.6 by 1.2 which is 15.5 the amount going into the 8 shakers. Then subtract 15.5 from 18.6 which gives us 3.1. Then you divide that by 0.6 = 5. 5 small shakers can be filled with the remaining salt.
