Slope-intercept form of a line is y=mx+b where m= slope and b=y-intercept.

First step is to compare this line with the given line y=5x+2 to get the value of m.

After comparing we will get m=5.

Now slope of all parallel lines are equal which means if slope of this line is 5 then slope of the line which is parallel to this line will also be 5.

Point- slope form of a line is:

$y-y_{1} =m(x-x_{1} )$

Given the line passes through (-6,-1). So, plug in x1=-6, y1=-1 and m=5 in the above equation. So,

y-(-1)=5(x-(-6))

y+1=5(x+6)

y+1=5x+30

y=5x+30-1

y=5x+29.

The average fuel efficiency of U.S. light vehicles for 2005 was 21 mpg. If the standard deviation of the population was 2.9 and

statuscvo [17]

Answer:

1) The probability that the mean mpg for a random sample of 25 light vehicles is 0.042341.

2) between 20 and 25 --> 21-25/2.9 = -1.38

Step-by-step explanation:

Problem #1:

Using the z-score formula, z = (x-μ)/σ/n, where x is the raw score = 20 mpg,μ is the population mean = 21 mpg , σ is the population standard deviation = 2.9, n = random number of samples.
