A vehicle with a particular defect in its emission control system is taken to a succession of randomly selected mechanics until

r = 15 of them have correctly diagnosed the problem. Suppose that this requires diagnoses by 20 different mechanics (so there were 5 incorrect diagnoses). Let p = P(correct diagnosis), so p is the proportion of all mechanics who would correctly diagnose the problem. What is the mle of p?

What are the focus and directrix of the parabola with the equation y=1/16x^2
Vlada [557]
Y=1/16x^2
multiplying both sides by 16 we get:
16y=x^2
The general form of a parabola is:
(x-h)^2=4p(y-k)
thus
4p=16
p=4
The parabola opens upwrd:
Focus: (h,k-p)
(0,0-4)
=(0,-4)
Directrix: y=-4

7. Write an equation for the line that is parallel to the given line and that passes through the given point.
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

C. y = 1/2x - 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the slope of the original line and use the point-slope formula  y − y 1 = m ( x − x 1 )  to find the line parallel to  y = 1 /2 x − 8 .

y = 1 /2 x − 14                              PARALLEL

...................................................................................................................................................

Find the negative reciprocal of the slope of the original line and use the point-slope formula  y − y 1 = m ( x − x 1 )  to find the line perpendicular to  y = 1 /2 x − 8 .

y = − 2 x − 29                               PERPENDICULAR

Suppose y = 2x + 1 , where x and y are functions of t. (a) if dx/dt = 6, find dy/dt when x = 4. dy dt = (b) if dy/dt = 2, find d
evablogger [386]

y=2x+1\\\\\dfrac{dy}{dt}=2\dfrac{dx}{dt}

(a) For dx/dt=6, dy/dt = 2·6 = 12

(b) For dy/dt=2, 2 = 2·dx/dt ⇒ dx/dt = 1

_____

The value of x is irrelevant for this question.

=====

If your function is 2^x +1 or 2^(x +1), it needs to be written as such. The answer above applies to the function given.
