Answer:

The equation of the line is y = -\frac{1}{3}x - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line:

The equation of a line has the following format:

y = mx + b

In which m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Slope of - 1/3

This means that m = -\frac{1}{3}

So

y = -\frac{1}{3}x + b

Through the point (-6, -6)

This means that when x = -6, y = -6. So

y = -\frac{1}{3}x + b

-6 = -\frac{1}{3}(-6) + b

b + 2 = -6

b = -8

The equation of the line is y = -\frac{1}{3}x - 8

In this data set, the largest number is 22 and the smallest number is 5 so the range of the data set will simply be 22 - 5 or 17.

So the range of this data set is 17.
