Find the slope of the line that passes through the points (1, 1) and (7,5). If you get stuck, try plotting the points on a grid and drawing the line through
them. Your answer should be a whole number or a simplified fraction.*

Eight people were asked what the balance of their savings account at the beginning of the month was and how much it increased or decreased by the end of the month. create a scatter plot that represents the data that is shown in the table. the x-axis represents the beginning balance in thousands of dollars and the y-axis represents the change in the savings account in hundreds of dollars. name beginning balance (in thousands of dollars) change in savings account (in hundreds of dollars) jimmy 5 3 kendra 4 7 carlos 5 4 yolanda 3 1 shawn 2 5 laura 3 2 andy 5 6 georgia 4 3

Aprisoner is trapped in a cell containing three doors. the first door leads to a tunnel that returns him to his cell after two days of travel. the second leads to a tunnel that returns him to his cell after three days of travel. the third door leads immediately to freedom. (a) assuming that the prisoner will always select doors 1, 2 and 3 with probabili- ties 0.5,0.3,0.2 (respectively), what is the expected number of days until he reaches freedom? (b) assuming that the prisoner is always equally likely to choose among those doors that he has not used, what is the expected number of days until he reaches freedom? (in this version, if the prisoner initially tries door 1, for example, then when he returns to the cell, he will now select only from doors 2 and 3.) (c) for parts (a) and (b), find the variance of the number of days until the prisoner reaches freedom. hint for part (b): define ni to be the number of additional days the prisoner spends after initially choosing door i and returning to his cell.
