Answer:

y= 3.5x+22.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard equation of a line a expressed as y = MX+c

m is the slope

c is the y-intecept

Get the slope

m = y2-y1/x2-x1

m = -9-5/-9+5

m = -14/-4

m = 7/2

Get the y- intercept

Substitute any of the point say (-5,5) and m = 7/2 into the equation y = MX+c

5 = 7/2(-5)+c

5= -35/2+c

5 =-17.5+c

c = 5+17.5

c =22.5

Get the required equation

Recall that y = MX+c

y= 3.5x+22.5

Answer:

a. of the central limit theorem.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , a large sample size, larger than 30, can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

In this problem, the sample size is 100, so it is sufficiently large to use the Central Limit Theorem. The mean of the sample in 69 and the standard deviation of the sample is 0.58.

So the correct answer is:

a. of the central limit theorem.
