What is the slope intercept form of an equation of the line with slope -0.5 and and y intercept is the orgin?

Mathematics

Answer:

y = -0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, slope intercept form (remember this) is y = mx+b or y = mx-b.

m is the slope, so we put -0.5 there.

The origin is the very center of the graph. Where the x and y-axis meets. Think of the x-axis and y-axis as two number lines, one vertical and one horizontal. In coordinates, the origin is (0,0) because it is the center of the graph, and 0 is the center of a number line and we have 2 number lines. So, 2 zeros.

Slope is the steepness of a line. Think of it as an uphill road (positive slope) or a downhill mountain (negative slope.)

A y-intercept is where the line FIRST meets the y-axis (vertical axis).

We don't need to write y = -0.5x + 0 or y = -0.5x - 0. Adding and subtracting zero is the same thing. We don't need to do it at all.

olga_2 [115]

Answer:

P(X=3cars) = 0.052

P(X>3 cars) = 0.00638

Step-by-step explanation:

In total there are 7 cars per hour.

Using formulae for geometric Probability

P(X=3) = (7^3×e-7)/3! = 0.0521

P(X>3cars) = (7^2× e-7)/2! =

P(X>3) = 0.0128/2×1 =0.00638

What is the median value of the data set shown on the line plot? Enter your answer in the box. A line plot with twenty-two data
Bogdan [553]
Answer: the median is 6.

Please see the picture attached.

A line plot shows the number of occurrences (crosses) of each number of a data set.

The median is the central value, the middle number, of a data set ordered from least to greatest. When there are two middle numbers, the median will be the mean between the two.

In order to find the median, look at the line plot: count how many values you have (22), then add 1 (23) and divide by two (11.5). Since we have an even number of values, we will have two middle numbers, which will be in the eleventh and twelfth position.

Count the crosses from the left, the eleventh and twelfth crosses both correspond to the number 6, therefore the median is 6.

You can also write all the numbers in increasing order and divide them into two equal groups:
1, 2, 3, 3, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 6, 6 | 6, 6, 7, 7, 7, 8, 8, 8, 9, 9, 11

The median will be the average between the two central numbers, therefore 6 (again).
