To find the slope you use the equation:
m = (y₂-y₁) ÷ (x₂-x₁)
You plug in the two points into this equation to find m (m is the slope)
m = (1 - 0) ÷ (0 - 2)
m = 1 ÷ (-2)
m = - 1/2
Next you use this equation:
y = mx + b
Because you know m you plug it in.
y = -1/2x + b
Now you need to find b. To do so you plug in either of the points into this equation(you come out with the same answer for b)
y = -1/2x + b
1 = -1/2(0) + b
1 = b
Finally you plug in b and you get your new equation.
y = -1/2x + 1
You can approximate the square root of 30 by taking the square root of a number close to it. This is called local linearization. You can take the square root of 36, which is 6, and the square root of 25, which is 5, and state that the square root of 30 is approximately somewhere between 5 and 6
Solution :
The null and alternative hypothesis is given by


Assume that the level of significance, α = 0.05
The t-test statistics is, t = 1.484
Degree of freedom :
df = n - 1
= 14 - 1
= 13
The P-value is given by
P-value = 2P (T>|t|)
= 2P(T>|1.484|)
= 2P(T>1.484)
= 2(=T.DIST.RT(1.484,13))
= 0.05
T x -4

-25
The sign in the middle means "more than or equal to" or "at least"
