In 1990 the average family income was about $ 39 , 000 , and in 2010 it was about $ 70 , 768 . Let x = 0 represent 1990, x = 1 r
iren2701 [21]

Answer:

<em />f(x) = 1588.4x + 39000<em />

f(15) = 62826

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

In 1990; Income= $39000

In 2010; Income= $70768

Solving (a): An equation in form of f(x) = ax + b

First, we need to determine the slope, a

a = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}

Taking y as income and x as year index.

When x = 0; y = 39000

When x = 20; y = 70768

Substitute these values in the above formula

a = \frac{70768 - 39000}{20 - 0}

a = \frac{31768}{20}

a = 1588.4

Next, is to determine the formula using:

y - y_1 = a(x - x_1)

<em>Considering :When x = 0; y = 39000, we have</em>

<em />y - 39000 = 1588.4(x - 0)<em />

<em />y - 39000 = 1588.4x<em />

<em>Make y the subject of formula</em>

<em />y = 1588.4x + 39000<em />

<em />

<em>Express y as a function of x</em>

<em />f(x) = 1588.4x + 39000<em />

Solving (b): Income in 2005

<em>In 2005, x = 15</em>

So:

f(x) = 1588.4x + 39000 becomes

f(15) = 1588.4 * 15 + 39000

f(15) = 62826

With one method of a procedure called acceptance sampling, a sample of items is randomly selected without replacement and the en
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

P = 0.1447

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

n = 7000 -- total

d = 180 --- defective

r = 6 --- selected

Required

The probability of rejecting the batch

This means that at least one of the selected piece is defected.

So, we first calculate the probability that all the selected piece are accepted.

So, we have:

Pr = \frac{7000 - 180}{7000} * \frac{6999 - 180}{6999}* \frac{6998 - 180}{6998}* \frac{6997 - 180}{6997}* \frac{6996 - 180}{6996}* \frac{6995 - 180}{6995}

The denominator decreases by 1 because it is a probability without replacement; 180 is subtracted from the numerator to represent the number of non-defective CDs

So, we have:

Pr = \frac{6820}{7000} * \frac{6819}{6999}* \frac{6818}{6998}* \frac{6817}{6997}* \frac{6816}{6996}* \frac{6815}{6995}

Pr = 0.8553

Using the complement rule, the probability that the batch will be rejected is:

P = 1 - 0.8553

P = 0.1447

one pound of swordfish costs as much as 1.5 pounds of salmon. Mrs. O pays $39 for 2 pounds of salmon and 3 pounds of swordfish.
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

Not sure which ratio you need, but 6/9 = 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

1.5xsalmon=swordfish

$39 = 2lb salmon and 3lb swordfish

1lb salmon=$6           6+6 = 12

1lb swordfish=$9       9+9+9 = 27

12+27 = 39
