Answer:
y=-1/4x+1
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi there!
We're given the point (-8,3) and a slope of -1/4
lines are typically written in the formula y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
as we are already given the slope, we can substitute its value into the equation
substitute -1/4 as m
y=-1/4x+b
now we need to find b
as the equation passes through the point (-8,3),we can use it to solve for b
substitute -8 as x and 3 as y
3=-1/4(-8)+b
multiply
3=2+b
subtract 2 from both sides
1=b
substitute 1 as b
y=-1/4x+1

Answer: 8</h3>
=====================================================
Explanation:
According to the table, 10 people have brown eyes. This is out of 1+10+1+1+7 = 20 people total. So 10/20 = 0.50 = 50% of the group has brown eyes.
If this trend holds up, then we expect 50% of the next group of 16 people also have brown eyes.
50% of 16 = 0.50*16 = 8
We expect 8 people to have brown eyes in this next group. This is of course assuming that the first group is unbiased and represents the population (or is close enough).
