Answer:
Y = 2/3x - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall the general equation for a straight line is
y = mx + b
where m is the gradient and b is the y-intercept
given 2 points whose coordinates are (x1, y1) and (x2, y2), m can be found with the following formula:
m =
in this case, x1 = 3, y1 = -1, x2 = 6, y2=1
applying these values to the formula for m will give
m = (-1 -1) / (3-6) = 2/3
We can see immediately that only the first (top-most) answer has this value for m and we can guess that this is probably the answer.
But we can still check to confirm:
If we substitute this back into the general equation, we get:
y = (2/3)x + b
In order to find the value for b, we substitute any one of the 2 given points back into this equation. Lets choose (6,1)
1 = (2/3)(6) + b
1 = 4 + b
b = -3
Confirm Y = 2/3x - 3 is the answer.
Answer:
c. 6.2 ± 2.626(0.21)
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.
The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So
df = 101 - 1 = 100
99% confidence interval
Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 100 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of . So we have T = 2.626
The confidence interval is:
In which is the sample mean while M is the margin of error.
The distribution of the number of puppies born per litter was skewed left with a mean of 6.2 puppies born per litter.
This means that
The margin of error is:
In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.
Thus, the confidence interval is:
And the correct answer is given by option c.
