The population of the United States is aging, though less rapidly than in other developed countries. To the right is a stemplot of the percents of residents aged 65 and older in each of the 50 states, according to the 2000 census. There are two outliers: Alaska has the lowest percent of older residents, and Florida has the highest. What is the percent for Florida? a. 13.8%
b. 57%
c. 176%
d. 17.6%
e. 5.7%

i think it is c.

Step-by-step explanation:

step-by-step explanation:

i think something is missing in your question because y-1=(x-12) would not pass through the point (-4,-3). because if you replace x by -4 your are supposed to find y=-3 which is not the case her. if you replace x by -4 you find =-15.

i assume the right equation is y-1=1/4*(x-12) because this one is passing through both your points (if you are interested to know how i found that out i can tell you).

in this equation if i replace x by -4 i find y=-3 and if i replace x by 12, i find y=1 so the line representing this equation is passing through those 2 points.

then the standard form of the equation is finding an expression of y in function of x

y-1=1/4*(x-12)

y=x/4-3+1

y=x/4-2

hope that .

do you confirm there was a mistake in the question?
