Answer:
slope = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
Calculate the slope m using the slope formula
m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 4, 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (5, 3)
m = =
= 0
We need to 'standardise' the value of X = 14.4 by first calculating the z-score then look up on the z-table for the p-value (which is the probability)
The formula for z-score:
z = (X-μ) ÷ σ
Where
X = 14.4
μ = the average mean = 18
σ = the standard deviation = 1.2
Substitute these value into the formula
z-score = (14.4 - 18) ÷ 1..2 = -3
We are looking to find P(Z < -3)
The table attached conveniently gives us the value of P(Z < -3) but if you only have the table that read p-value to the left of positive z, then the trick is to do:
1 - P(Z<3)
From the table
P(Z < -3) = 0.0013
The probability of the runners have times less than 14.4 secs is 0.0013 = 0.13%
