It’s a positive slope, constant slope, and increasing function. Because it’s a straight line going diagonally to the top right, you know the slope is positive, constant, and the function is positive.
1. The two equations follow the slope-intercept form which y=mx + b. They have the same y-intercept which is equal to 900.
2. Suppose x= 10
Plan Alpha: y=-7x+900=-7(10)+900=830
Plan Foxtrot: y = -17x+900 = -17(10)+900=730
Between the 2 plans, the lower value is 730. Plan Foxtrot is better for reduction of pollution.
3. The city council should choose Plan Foxtrot because the reduction of pollution is much greater. Their goal would be reached faster if they go with faster reduction of pollution.

Answer:
a) The percentage of athletes whose GPA more than 1.665 is 87.49%.
b) John's GPA is 3.645.
Step-by-step explanation:
In a set with mean
and standard deviation
, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
In this problem, we have that:

a)Find the percentage of athletes whose GPA more than 1.665.
This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 1.665. So



has a pvalue of 0.1251
1 - 0.1251 = 0.8749
The percentage of athletes whose GPA more than 1.665 is 87.49%.
b) John's GPA is more than 85.31 percent of the athletes in the study. Compute his GPA.
His GPA is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.8531. So it is X when Z = 1.05.




John's GPA is 3.645.
