Answer:

the standard deviation of the speeds of cars travelling on California freeways is 6.0 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the standard deviation of the speeds of cars is shown below;

The z score for the top 1% is 2.326

So,

= (75 - 61) ÷ standard deviation = 2.326

Standard deviation is

= 14 ÷ 2.326

= 6.0 miles per hour

Hence, the standard deviation of the speeds of cars travelling on California freeways is 6.0 miles per hour

Find the slope of the line represented by the table of values.
gladu [14]

Answer:

B) −1/4


Step-by-step explanation:

The slope represents the change in y values divided by the change in x values.  We can use the formula

slope = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

(2,4)  (-2,5)

slope = (5-4)/(-2-2)

        = 1/-4

slope = -1/4
