Answer:

The slope of the line that joins the points is negative.

i.e m = -6/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Taking two points from the graph to determine the slope

(-3, 4)

(2, -2)

Finding the slope between (-3, 4),(2, -2)

$\mathrm{Slope}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$ '

$\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(-3,\:4\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(2,\:-2\right)$

$m=\frac{-2-4}{2-\left(-3\right)}$

$m=-\frac{6}{5}$

Therefore, the slope of the line that joins the points is negative.

i.e m = -6/5

Dogs are inbred for such desirable characteristics as blue eye color, but an unfortunate by-product of such inbreeding can be th

sesenic [268]

Answer:

The probability that the dogs are blue eyed and deaf is 13.02%.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

P(Blue eyes) = 31%

P(Deaf) = 38%

P(Deaf | Blue eyes) = 42%

Formula for conditional probability:

$P( A|B) = \displaystyle\frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(B)}$

Now, let A be the event where the dog is deaf and B be the the event where dog is blue eyed.

$P( \text{ Deaf}|\text{Blue eyes}) = \displaystyle\frac{P( \text{Deaf} \cap \text{Blue eyes})}{P(\text{Blue eyes})}\\\\0.42 = \displaystyle\frac{P( \text{Deaf} \cap \text{Blue eyes})}{0.31}\\\\P( \text{Deaf} \cap \text{Blue eyes}) = 0.42\times 0.31 = 0.1302 = 13.02\%$
