Answer:
y = -5/3 x + 40
Step-by-step explanation:
The general form is y = ax + b, where a is the slope and b is the y intercept.
So immediately you can see that b must be 40, since the line crosses the y axis at 40.
The slope can be calculated by finding two "nice" points on the line that are also grid lines.
How about (0,40) and (6, 30).
Then, calculate the slope by dividing the y difference by the x difference:
(30-40)/(6-0) = -10/6 = -5/3
So C must be the answer.
Answer:
D. a line graph
Step-by-step explanation:
80 * 5/8 will give you how many are thoroughbreds.
80 * 5/8 = 50
Now subtract this from all of the horses.
80 - 50 = 30.
There are 30 quarter horses.
OR If 5/8 of the horses are thoroughbreds, then 3/8 are quarter horses.
80 * 3/8 = 30.
Answer: The probability is 0.5136.
To find this probability we have to find the range of the values on the normal distribution table.
First, we need to find the percent for each making z-score.
Lower end: 50/24 = 2.08 = 0.0183
Upper end: 2/24 = 0.08 = 0.5319
Now, that we have the upper and lower ends, we can subtract them to find the difference or the range.
0.5319 - 0.0183 = 0.5136
There is a 51.36% chance they are in the given range.
