okay. the point has an x and y value. place them into the equation.

1=m(1)+b

m=slope, and theequation tells you that slope is 7.

1=7(1)+b

now you need to figure out what b is.

1=7(1)+b

^

1= 7 +b

-7 -7

-6=B

b is 6. now place it into the equation, replacing the x and y values back.

y=7x-6.

write 7 and 6 in the boxes (the negative for the six has already been provided)

answer: what do you mean

d. 24+-0.114

step-by-step explanation:

the question requires us to calculate the approximate 95% confidence interval for the mean number of ounces of ketchup per bottle in the sample given the following statistics;

sample mean = 24

standard deviation, σ = 0.4

sample size , n = 49

the confidence interval for a population mean is calculated using the formula;

sample mean ± z-score*(σ/sqrt(n))

the z-score associated with a 95% confidence interval, from the standard normal tables, is;

1.96

substituting these values into the formula;

24 ± 1.96*(0.4/7)

= 24 ± 0.112

from the alternatives given, choice d is closest to the above expression;
