Answer: $y=-\dfrac{1}{3}x$

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line that passes through two points (a,b) and (c,d) is given by :-

$(y-b)=\dfrac{d-b}{c-a}(x-a)$

The given points : (0, 0) and (-3, 1)

Then, the equation of the line passing through these points :

$(y-0)=\dfrac{1-0}{-3-0}(x-0)$

$\Rightarrow\ y=-\dfrac{1}{3}x$

Hence, the required equation that passes through (0, 0) and (-3, 1) is $y=-\dfrac{1}{3}x$ .

Umm.... Y = -1/3x?

Because it passes through the origin, so it's y = mx, and Rise is -3 and run is 1, and when you do rise over run, you get 1/-3 which is -1/3, which is the slope.

So we have a population with the mean being 0.8750 and the standard deviations being 0.0011. So let's see how many standard deviations we need to be off by to exceed the specifications.

Low end
(0.8725 - 0.8750)/ 0.0011 = -0.0025/0.0011 = -2.272727273
High end
(0.8775 - 0.8750)/ 0.0011 = 0.0025/0.0011 = 2.272727273

So we need to be within 2.272727273 deviations of the mean. Let's use a standard normal table to look up that value, which is 0.48848, which is half the percentage. So 0.48848 * 2 = 0.97696, rounding to 3 digits gives 0.977</span>
