Answer:
D. Y = x + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope increases at a rate of 1 / 1, which is written as just x. The line starts at 2, which is at the y-intercept, a.k.a, where you get the +2 from.
This one is best done by elimination:
We need to start 4 meters away, so B is clearly wrong.
We first move towards Mr. Wilson (i.e. distance is decreasing) so A is wrong.
Our speed is faster on the way back, so the two sloped section must have differing slopes, so D is wrong.
(D also doesn't start at 4, it's wrong for two reasons.)
Only C is left.
We can check each part to make sure. First we start at 4m, then move away, then stay still (zero slope) for three seconds, then move back faster (higher slope). All parts check out ok.
Simplify brackets
2/5(x - 4) = 2x
Simplify 2/5(x - 4) to 2(x - 4)/5
2(x - 4)/5 = 2x
Multiply both sides by 5
2(x - 4) = 10x
Divide both sides by 2
x - 4 = 5x
Subtract x from both sides
-4 = 5x - x
Simplify 5x - x to 4x
-4 = 4x
Divide both sides by 4
-1 = x
Switch sides
<u>x = -1</u>
Answer:
Probability that deliberation will last between 12 and 15 hours is 0.1725.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that a recent study showed that the length of time that juries deliberate on a verdict for civil trials is normally distributed with a mean equal to 12.56 hours with a standard deviation of 6.7 hours.
<em>Let X = length of time that juries deliberate on a verdict for civil trials</em>
So, X ~ N(
)
The z score probability distribution is given by;
Z = 
~ N(0,1)
where, 
= mean time = 12.56 hours
= standard deviation = 6.7 hours
So, Probability that deliberation will last between 12 and 15 hours is given by = P(12 hours < X < 15 hours) = P(X < 15) - P(X 
12)
P(X < 15) = P( < 
) = P(Z < 0.36) = 0.64058
P(X 12) = P( 
) = P(Z -0.08) = 1 - P(Z < 0.08)
= 1 - 0.53188 = 0.46812
<em>Therefore, P(12 hours < X < 15 hours) = 0.64058 - 0.46812 = 0.1725</em>
Hence, probability that deliberation will last between 12 and 15 hours is 0.1725.
Answer: 304
Step-by-step explanation: first you multiply 9, 3, and 12 which equals 324. Then you subtract 20 from 324 and you get 304.
