Answer:

No, the graph fails the vertical line test

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine if the graph is a function, we can use the vertical line test.

Use a vertical line, if the vertical passes through two or more points, the graph is not a function

Looking at the y axis ( which is a vertical line), it passes through two points

This means the graph is not a function

No, the graph fails the vertical line test

A selective university advertises that 96% of its bachelor’s degree graduates have, on graduation day, a professional job offer

OLEGan [10]

Answer:

The probability is $P( p < 0.9207) = 0.0012556$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told

The population proportion is $p = 0.96$

The sample size is $n = 227$

The number of graduate who had job is k = 209

Generally given that the sample size is large enough (i.e n > 30) then the mean of this sampling distribution is

$\mu_x = p = 0.96$

Generally the standard deviation of this sampling distribution is

$\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{p (1 - p )}{n} }$

=> $\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{0.96 (1 - 0.96 )}{227} }$

=> $\sigma = 0.0130$

Generally the sample proportion is mathematically represented as

$\^ p = \frac{k}{n}$

=> $\^ p = \frac{209}{227}$

=> $\^ p = 0.9207$

Generally probability of obtaining a sample proportion as low as or lower than this, if the university’s claim is true, is mathematically represented as

$P( p < 0.9207) = P( \frac{\^ p - p }{\sigma } < \frac{0.9207 - 0.96}{0.0130 } )$

$\frac{\^ p - p}{\sigma } = Z (The \ standardized \ value\ of \ \^ p )$

$P( p < 0.9207) = P(Z< -3.022 )$

From the z table the area under the normal curve to the left corresponding to -3.022 is

$P(Z< -3.022 ) = 0.0012556$

=> $P( p < 0.9207) = 0.0012556$

Answer:

<em>The fraction of the beads that are red is</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Algebraic Expressions</u>

A bag contains red (r), yellow (y), and blue (b) beads. We are given the following ratios:

r:y = 2:3

y:b = 5:4

We are required to find r:s, where s is the total of beads in the bag, or

s = r + y + b

Thus, we need to calculate:

$\displaystyle \frac{r}{r+y+b} \qquad\qquad [1]$

Knowing that:

$\displaystyle \frac{r}{y}=\frac{2}{3} \qquad\qquad [2]$

$\displaystyle \frac{y}{b}=\frac{5}{4}$

Multiplying the equations above:

$\displaystyle \frac{r}{y}\frac{y}{b}=\frac{2}{3}\frac{5}{4}$

Simplifying:

$\displaystyle \frac{r}{b}=\frac{5}{6} \qquad\qquad [3]$

Dividing [1] by r:

$\displaystyle \frac{r}{r+y+b}=\displaystyle \frac{1}{1+y/r+b/r}$

Substituting from [2] and [3]:

$\displaystyle \frac{r}{r+y+b}=\displaystyle \frac{1}{1+3/2+6/5}$

Operating:

$\displaystyle \frac{r}{r+y+b}=\displaystyle \frac{1}{\frac{10+3*5+6*2}{10}}$

$\displaystyle \frac{r}{r+y+b}=\displaystyle \frac{10}{10+15+12}$

$\displaystyle \frac{r}{r+y+b}=\displaystyle \frac{10}{37}$

The fraction of the beads that are red is $\mathbf{\frac{10}{37}}$

Help me plz I need it I'm very desperate help

Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

1/45

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 10 marbles

P ( yellow) = yellow marbles / total = 2/10 = 1/5

We do not replace the marble

There are 9 marbles, 1 of which is yellow

P ( yellow) = yellow marbles / total = 1/9

P ( yellow, no replacement, yellow) = 1/5 * 1/9 = 1/45

How to solve linear and nonlinear equations graphically?

Ede4ka [16]

Plot the equation. If you wish to solve a polynomial, let y= polynomial and plot the graph. Best set up a table of values first.
Where the graph crosses the x axis there is a solution for x. There are also solutions for other horizontal lines (y values) by looking at intersections of the graph with these lines. This technique works for linear and non linear equations. You can also use graphs to solve 2-variable systems of equations by examining where the graphs intersect one another. The disadvantage is that you may not be able to have sufficient detail for high degrees of accuracy because of the scale of the graph and drawing inaccuracies.
