Ryan is correct, the mean is about 8.1.
To find the mean, you have to add up all the values, then divide by the total amount.
For Sample A:
60 x 6 + 90 x 7 + 145 x 8 + 150 x 9 + 55 x 10 = 4050
If you add up all the adults, you have 500.
Dividing 4050 by 500 = 8.1
Sample B will produce a very similar result.
Written out, this would be (x / 7) - 10 < -6
solved, it would be x < 28
We know that
points are
x intercept
A (4,0)
y intercept
B (0,11)
step 1
find the equation of a line
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)--------> m=(11-0)/(0-4)------> m=-11/4
with m and the point B (0,11)
y-y1=m*(x-x1)y-11=(-11/4)*(x-0)---------> y=-(11/4)x+11
the answer is
the formula of the function is y=-(11/4)x+11
see the attached figure
um 600?? I'm sorry if that's wrong
