Answer:

The three points that lie on a line y = -2/5x with a slope -2/5 will be:

(0, 0)

(5, -2)

(10, -4)

Please check the attached graph also.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the slope-intercept form of the line equation is

$y = mx+b$

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

Given

slope = m = -2/5

We suppose the line passes through the origin.

so b = 0

substituting m = -2/5 and b = 0 in the slope-intercept form

$y = mx+b$

y = -2/5x + 0

y = -2/5x

Thus, the equation of line with the slope m = -2/5 and passes through the origin (0, 0) will be:

y = -2/5x

As the equation of line passes through (0, 0), thus the point (0, 0) lies on the line.

Putting x = 0 in the equation y = -2/5x

y = -2/5 × (0)

y = 0

Thus, (0, 0) is the point which also passes through the line

Putting x = 5 in the equation y = -2/5x

y = -2/5 × 5

y = -2

Thus, (5, -2) is the point which also passes through the line

Now, putting x = 10 in the equation y = -2/5x

y = -2/5 × 10

y = -4

Thus, (10, -4) is the point which also passes through the line.

Thus, the three points that lie on a line y = -2/5x with a slope -2/5 will be:

(0, 0)

(5, -2)

(10, -4)

VMariaS [17]

Answer:

He must survey 123 adults.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of $\pi$ , and a confidence level of $1-\alpha$ , we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

$\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

In which

z is the z-score that has a p-value of $1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}$ .

The margin of error is:

$M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

Assume that a recent survey suggests that about 87% of adults have heard of the brand.

This means that $\pi = 0.87$

90% confidence level

So $\alpha = 0.1$ , z is the value of Z that has a p-value of $1 - \frac{0.1}{2} = 0.95$ , so $Z = 1.645$ .

How many adults must he survey in order to be 90% confident that his estimate is within five percentage points of the true population percentage?

This is n for which M = 0.05. So

$M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

$0.05 = 1.645\sqrt{\frac{0.87*0.13}{n}}$

$0.05\sqrt{n} = 1.645\sqrt{0.87*0.13}$

$\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.645\sqrt{0.87*0.13}}{0.05}$

$(\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.645\sqrt{0.87*0.13}}{0.05})^2$

$n = 122.4$

Rounding up:

He must survey 123 adults.
