The slope intercept form equation is expressed as

y = mx + c

where

m represents slope

c represents y intercept

The formula for determining slope is expressed as

slope, m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

From the information given,

y2 = 6, y1 = 2

x2 = 0, x1 = 4

Slope, m = (6 - 2)/(0 - 4) = 4/- 4

m = - 1

We would determine the y intercept, c by substituting m = - 1, y = 6 and x = 0 into the slope intercept equation. It becomes

6 = - 1 * 0 + c

6 = c

c = 6

The equation would be

y = - x + 6

1.Find the compound interest on Rs25000 for 3 years at 10% per annum ,Compounded annually.

LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

The compound interest is Rs8275

Step-by-step explanation:

The rule of the compound interest is A = P $(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nr}$ , where

A is the new amount

P is the initial amount

r is the interest rate in decimal

n is the number of periods

t is the time

The interest I = A - P

∵ The amount of investment is Rs25000 for 3 years

∴ P = 25000

∴ t = 3

∵ The rate of interest is 10% per annum, compounded annually

∴ r = 10% = 10 ÷ 100 = 0.1

∴ n = 1 ⇒ compounded annually

→ Substitute these value in the 1st rule above to find the new amount

∵ A = 25000 $(1+\frac{0.1}{1})^{1(3)}$

∴ A = 25000 $(1.1)^{3}$

∴ A = Rs33275

→ Use the 2nd rule above to find the interest

∵ I = 33275 - 25000

∴ I = 8275

∴ The compound interest is Rs8275

Can anyone help solve this?

We can tell this is an isosceles triangle due to the sticks meaning the base angles are equal so the measurement of ACB would be the same as ABC so it would measure x

Definition of Variable and Constant with examples! Spam free answers required!

ra1l [238]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{\mathfrak{variable}}}}$

Variable is a symbol that represents a quantity in a mathematical expression, as used in many sciences. Variable (research), a logical set of attributes. Variable star, a type of astronomical star.

$\large\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{\mathfrak{constant}}}}$

A constant, sometimes also called a "mathematical constant," is any well-defined real number which is significantly interesting in some way. A function, equation, etc., is said to "be constant" (or be a constant function) if it always assumes the same value independent of how its parameters are varied.

Assume the upper arm length of males over 20 years old in the United States is approximately Normal with mean 39.2 centimeters (

MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

The interval [32.6 cm, 45.8 cm]

Step-by-step explanation:

According with the 68–95–99.7 rule for the Normal distribution: If $\large \bar x$ is the mean of the distribution and s the standard deviation, around 68% of the data must fall in the interval

$\large [\bar x - s, \bar x +s]$

around 95% of the data must fall in the interval

$\large [\bar x -2s, \bar x +2s]$

around 99.7% of the data must fall in the interval

$\large [\bar x -3s, \bar x +3s]$

So, the range of lengths that covers almost all the data (99.7%) is the interval

[39.2 - 3*2.2, 39.2 + 3*2.2] = [32.6, 45.8]

This means that if we measure the upper arm length of a male over 20 years old in the United States, the probability that the length is between 32.6 cm and 45.8 cm is 99.7%
