Hello there!

The slope is -2/3x.

Why? Keep the following formula in mind:

y=mx+b

m is the slope (-2/3x in this case)

b is the y-intercept (-5 in this case)

<h2>Therefore, the slope is -2/3.</h2>

Hope this helps!

Elanso [62]

Answer: 0.0885

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : According to a recent Catalyst Census, 16% of executive officers were women with companies that have company headquarters in the Midwest.

i.e. p= 0.16

Sample size : n= 154

Now, the probability that more than 20% of this sample is comprised of female employees is given by :-

$P(p>0.20)=P(z>\dfrac{0.20-0.16}{\sqrt{\dfrac{0.16(1-0.16)}{154}}})$
