Use the ordered pairs (5,66)(5,66) and (7,88)(7,88) to find the equation of a line that approximates the data. Express your answer in slope-intercept form. (If necessary, round the slope to the nearest hundredth and the y-intercept to the nearest whole number.)
You have chosen three breeds of chicken for your farm after studying their egg-laying capabilities. Of the total of 50 chickens, 10 will be White Leghorns, 30 will be Goldlines, and 10 will be Rhode Island Reds. The Goldlines and the Rhode Island Reds lay brown eggs, and the White Leghorns lay white eggs.
You also have this data on the average number of eggs laid per year by each breed:
White Leghorn: 300 eggs per year
Goldline: 320 eggs per year
Rhode Island Red: 220 eggs per year
If you pick a chicken at random, what is the probability of picking a chicken of each breed? What is that chicken's average yearly egg yield?

Probability of a Chicken in the Flock Being this Breed
Average Number of Eggs per Year

White Leghorn
Use this knowledge of expected values to find how many eggs, on average, you can expect from each chicken you own in its first year of prime egg-laying ability.
You find that many people like brown eggs. How many…
The source table depicts the results of a fictional study investigating whether the number of hours of sleep a person gets varies with his or her gender (male, female) and with the number of energy drinks that he or she consumes in a day. Equal numbers of men and women were randomly assigned to drink either 0, 1, or 2 energy drinks during the course of a day and then record the number of hours they slept that night.

She classified each GDP and each birth rate as either "low", "medium" or "high". There were 74 countries that had a medium GDP and 43 countries that had a high GDP. Among the countries that have 58 low birth rate, there were 3 countries that have a low GDP and 20 countries that have a medium GDP, whereas among the countries that have high birth rate, there were 45 countries that have a low GDP, 12 countries have a medium GDP and no country has a high GDP. i.
