All that's necessary is to add 4 to both sides of the equation. This gives

... y = 1/2(x -8) +4

If you like, you can simplify this by eliminating the parentheses and collecting terms.

... y = 1/2·x -4 +4

... y = (1/2)x

Answer:

V =12.167 cm^3

Step-by-step explanation:

V = s^3 is the volume of a cube where s is the side length

The side length of the cube is 2.3 cm

V = ( 2.3 cm) ^3

V =12.167 cm^3

Given the values of the three sides of the triangle, we can apply the Cosine Law to find the angles of the triangle. Recall that for we can express the value of c through the equation below.

$c^{2} = a^{2} + b^{2} - 2abcosC$

Rearranging this equation, we can find the value ∠C as shown below.

$\cos C = \frac{a^{2}+b^{2}-c^{2}}{2ab}$
$C = cos^{-1} (\frac{a^{2}+b^{2}-c^{2}}{2ab})$

We can apply the same reasoning for finding the value of ∠B as shown.

$B = cos^{-1} (\frac{a^{2}+c^{2}-b^{2}}{2ac})$

Plugging in the values of the sides (see image attached) from the given. It will now be straightforward to compute for ∠B and ∠C.

$C = cos^{-1} (\frac{22.5^{2}+18^{2}-13.6^{2}}{2(22.5)(18)})$
$C \approx 37.19$

$B = cos^{-1} (\frac{22.5^{2}+13.6^{2}-18^{2}}{2(22.5)(13.6)})$
$B \approx 53.13$

Answer: ∠C = 37.19° and ∠B = 53.13°

Answer:

a. E(x) = 3.730

b. c = 3.8475

c. 0.4308

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

0 x < 3

F(x) = (x-3)/1.13, 3 < x < 4.13

1 x > 4.13

Calculating E(x)

First, we'll calculate the pdf, f(x).

f(x) is the derivative of F(x)

So, if F(x) = (x-3)/1.13

f(x) = F'(x) = 1/1.13, 3 < x < 4.13

E(x) is the integral of xf(x)

xf(x) = x * 1/1.3 = x/1.3

Integrating x/1.3

E(x) = x²/(2*1.13)

E(x) = x²/2.26 , 3 < x < 4.13

E(x) = (4.13²-3²)/2.16

E(x) = 3.730046296296296

E(x) = 3.730 (approximated)

What is the value c such that P(X < c) = 0.75

First, we'll solve F(c)

F(c) = P(x<c)

F(c) = (c-3)/1.13= 0.75

c - 3 = 1.13 * 0.75

c - 3 = 0.8475

c = 3 + 0.8475

c = 3.8475

What is the probability that X falls within 0.28 minutes of its mean?

Here we'll solve for

P(3.73 - 0.28 < X < 3.73 + 0.28)

= F(3.73 + 0.28) - F(3.73 + 0.28)

= 2*0.28/1.3 = 0.430769

= 0.4308 -- Approximated
