The equation of a line is given by y = mx + c; where m is the slope.
The given equation is 9 - x = 2y
y = -1/2 x + 9/2
Therefore, the slope is -1/2 and the y-intercept is 9/2.
To find the answer, you need to divide 90.5 by 4. The answer to that is 22.625, and if you want to check the answer, 22.625 x 4 = 90.5. Hope this helps :)
Total voters=v=80
total no. of democrats=d=65
total no. of republicans=r=15
probability of democrats=p1=65/80=0.8125
probability of republicans=p2=15/80=0.1875
probability of a democrat or a republican=p1+p2=0.8125+0.1875=1 <span />
This is binomial probability with n=50 and p=0.62.
We want binom(50,0.62,35).
One way to calculate this is to use a calculator with statistical functions.
My TI-83 Plus turned out the result 0.061.
