y = kx

6 = (k)(-7)

k = -6/7

y = -6/7 x

y = (-6/7)(4)

y = -24/7 = -3 3/7

Answer: y = -3 3/7

Hope this helps!

The probability of event A is x, and the probability of event B is y. If the two events are independent, which of these conditio

zzz [600]

If two events are independent, then

$Pr(A\cap B)=Pr(A)\cdot Pr(B)$ .

Use formulas for conditional probabilities:

$Pr(A|B)=\dfrac{Pr(A\cap B)}{Pr(B)},\\ \\ Pr(B|A)=\dfrac{Pr(A\cap B)}{Pr(A)}$ .

For independent events these formulas will be:

$Pr(A|B)=\dfrac{Pr(A\cap B)}{Pr(B)}=\dfrac{Pr(A)\cdot Pr(B)}{Pr(B)}=Pr(A),\\ \\ Pr(B|A)=\dfrac{Pr(A\cap B)}{Pr(A)}=\dfrac{Pr(A)\cdot Pr(B)}{Pr(A)}=Pr(B)$ .

Now in your case $Pr(A)=x,\ Pr(B)=y$ and $Pr(A|B)=x,\ Pr(B|A)=y, Pr(A\cap B)=x\cdot y$ .

This shows that the only correct choice is A.

The rate of growth of profit (in millions) from an invention is approximated by Upper P prime (x )equals x e Superscript negati

Alecsey [184]

Answer:

The function is $P(x) = \frac{1}{2} e^{-x^2} +0.016$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The rate of growth is $P'(x) = xe^{x} - x^2$

The total profit is $P(2) =$ $25,000

The time taken to make the profit is $x = 2 \ years$

From the question

$P'(x) = xe^{-x^2}$ is the rate of growth

Now here x represent the time taken

Now the total profit is mathematically represented as

$P(x) = \int\limits {P'(x)} \, = \int\limits {xe^{-x^2}} \,$

So using substitution method

We have that

$u = - x^2$

$du = 2xdx$

$p(x) = \int\limits {\frac{1}{2} e^{-u}} \, du$

$p(x) = {\frac{1}{2} [ e^{-u}} +c ]$

$p(x) = {\frac{1}{2} e^{-x^2}} + \frac{1}{2} c$ recall $u = - x^2$ and let $\frac{1}{2} c = Z$

At x = 2 years

$P(x) =$ $25,000

Since the profit rate is in million

$P(x) =$ $25,000 = $\frac{25000}{1000000} =$ $0.025 millon dollars

$0.025 = {\frac{1}{2} e^{-2^2}} + Z$

=> $Z = 0.025 - {\frac{1}{2} e^{-2^2}}$

$Z = 0.016$

So the profit function becomes

$P(x) = \frac{1}{2} e^{-x^2} +0.016$

What is an equation of the line that passes through the points (1, -7) and (-4, 8)?

melomori [17]

<h2>Answer: y + 7 = -3 (x - 1)</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the line (m) = (y₂ - y₁) ÷ (x₂ - x₁)

= (- 7 - 8) ÷ ( 1 - (- 4))

= - 15 ÷ 5

= - 3

We can now use the point-slope form to write the equation for this line:

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁) where (x₁ , y₁) = (1, -7)

y - (-7) = -3 ( x - 1)

y + 7 = -3 (x - 1)
