<u>Answer with step by step explanation</u>

To find the equation of the line from the given equation, you have to make y as the subject in the equation.

<u>Let us find now.</u>

x + 3y = -4

3y = -4 - x

3y = -x - 4

<em>Divide the whole equation by 3.</em>

y = -x/3 - 4/3

Therefore, <u>the equation of the line</u> is:

<u> y = -x/3 - 4/3</u>

And now we have to find the slope and the y - intercept of the line.

That is, we have to find the m & c of y = m x + c.

Here,

m ⇒ slope

c ⇒ y - intercept

So, to find it we have to find the values which were replaced with m & c.

<u>Let us find now.</u>

y = m x + c

y = <u>-x/3</u> <u> - 4/3</u>

Now it is clear that, <u>-1/3 & -4/3 are replaced with m & c</u> respectively.

Therefore,

slope ⇒<u> -1/3</u>

y - intercept ⇒<u> -4/3</u>

Answer:

13.75

Step-by-step explanation:

The expected value of the hourly wage is the sum of the probabilities (percentage of time spent on each job) multiplied by the payoff (money earned) from each possible occurrence (job):

(0.6 × 11) + (0.25 × 19) + (0.15 × 16) = $13.75.

A company with n employees publishes an internal calendar, where each day lists the employees having a birthday that day. What i
lutik1710 [3]

Answer: 1-(\frac{364}{365})^n

Step-by-step explanation:

Binomial probability formula :-

P(x)=^nC_xp^x(1-p)^x, where P(x) is the probability of getting success in x trials, n is the total number of trials and p is the probability of getting success in each trial.

We assume that the total number of days in a particular year are 365.

Then , the probability for each employee to have birthday on a certain day :

p=\dfrac{1}{365}

Given : The number of employee in the company = n

Then, the probability there is at least one day in a year when nobody has a birthday is given by :-

P(x\geq1)=1-P(x

Hence, the probability there is at least one day in a year when nobody has a birthday =1-(\frac{364}{365})^n
