Hi there!
To derive an equation given the points, we can use the slope formula:
Plug in the corresponding coordinates:
Simplify:
Therefore, we have:
y = -4x + b
Plug in the x and y values for a coordinate to solve for b:
2 = -4(1) + b
2 = -4 + b
b = 6
The equation is:
y = -4x + 6. The correct answer is D.
Answer:
a) There is suggestive evidence the velvet leaf seed is successful at weed control.
b) Lower bound: 3.699 Upper bound: 6.629
c) Since the confidence interval contains the average percent of seeds to be infected by the beetle (5.164), so we fail to reject the null hypothesis at the specified level of significance.
Step-by-step explanation:
