Write an equation for the vertical line that contains point E(-12, 7). Is anybody able to help?

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Vertical lines take the form of and horizontal lines take the form of
Why is this? Notice that whenever you make a horizontal line on a graph and select virtually any point that's on that line, all of the points you pick will have the same y value. Try to imagine the same thing with a vertical line, are the results the same?
So the line (we got -12 from the coordinate that was given to us on the question prompt) is a vertical line that passes through virtually all possible y values (from positive infinity to negative infinity, or vice-versa) which means that the question prompt having given us the y value was negligible.
Good luck!

Answer:
(a) X ~ N().
~ N(
).
(b) If a single randomly selected individual is observed, the probability that this person consumes is between 61.4 mL and 62.8 mL is 0.0398.
(c) For the group of 43 pancake eaters, the probability that the average amount of syrup is between 61.4 mL and 62.8 mL is 0.2512.
(d) Yes, for part (d), the assumption that the distribution is normally distributed necessary.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that the amount of syrup that people put on their pancakes is normally distributed with mean 63 mL and a standard deviation of 13 mL.
Suppose that 43 randomly selected people are observed pouring syrup on their pancakes.
(a) Let X = <u><em>amount of syrup that people put on their pancakes</em></u>
The z-score probability distribution for the normal distribution is given by;
Z = ~ N(0,1)
where, = mean amount of syrup = 63 mL
= standard deviation = 13 mL
So, the distribution of X ~ N().
Let = <u><em>sample mean amount of syrup that people put on their pancakes</em></u>
The z-score probability distribution for the sample mean is given by;
Z = ~ N(0,1)
where, = mean amount of syrup = 63 mL
= standard deviation = 13 mL
n = sample of people = 43
So, the distribution of ~ N(
).
(b) If a single randomly selected individual is observed, the probability that this person consumes is between 61.4 mL and 62.8 mL is given by = P(61.4 mL < X < 62.8 mL)
P(61.4 mL < X < 62.8 mL) = P(X < 62.8 mL) - P(X 61.4 mL)
P(X < 62.8 mL) = P( <
) = P(Z < -0.02) = 1 - P(Z
0.02)
= 1 - 0.50798 = 0.49202
P(X 61.4 mL) = P(
) = P(Z
-0.12) = 1 - P(Z < 0.12)
= 1 - 0.54776 = 0.45224
Therefore, P(61.4 mL < X < 62.8 mL) = 0.49202 - 0.45224 = 0.0398.
(c) For the group of 43 pancake eaters, the probability that the average amount of syrup is between 61.4 mL and 62.8 mL is given by = P(61.4 mL < < 62.8 mL)
P(61.4 mL < < 62.8 mL) = P(
< 62.8 mL) - P(
61.4 mL)
P( < 62.8 mL) = P(
<
) = P(Z < -0.10) = 1 - P(Z
0.10)
= 1 - 0.53983 = 0.46017
P(
61.4 mL) = P(
) = P(Z
-0.81) = 1 - P(Z < 0.81)
= 1 - 0.79103 = 0.20897
Therefore, P(61.4 mL < X < 62.8 mL) = 0.46017 - 0.20897 = 0.2512.
(d) Yes, for part (d), the assumption that the distribution is normally distributed necessary.
