Answer:

1) y = -2x - 1

2) y = -3/4 + 3

3) y = 4x + 9

4) y = - 5/3x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

b = y - m*x

1) (-7,13) and slope: -2

b = 13 - (-2)*(-7)

b = 13 - 14

b = -1

2) (4,6) lope = -3/4

b = 6 - (-3/4)*(-4)

b = 6 - 3

b = 3

y = -3/4x + 3

3) (-5,-11) and (3,-7)

Slope: (1 - - 11)/(-2 - - 5) = 12/3

= 4

b = -11 - (4) (-5) = 9

b = 9

4) slope = (-7 - 8)/(3- - 6)

= -15/9 = - 5/3

b = 8 - (-5/3)*(-6)

b = 8 - 10

b = -2

Answer:

0.98 = 98% probability that the average midterm score of these students is at most 75 points.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the z-score of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ .
