Suppose y varies directly with x, and y= 7 when x = 3. What is the value of x when y = 28? If 7 = k(3) then 28 = k(x) Find x

1 answer:

7 0

Let y and x be the numbers that varies directly (that means they keep the same proportion)

Then we have 7y = 3x, OR y/x =7/3 (this ratio should be kept for any value of x and y:
y/x = 7/3, if y = 28, then 28/x = 7/3 or x = (3)(28)/7 = 12

SO X = 12

Answer:

Binomial; \mu p=87.5, \sigma p=7.542

Step-by-step explanation:

a distribution is said be a binomial distribution iff

The probability of success of that event( let it be p) is same for every trial
each trial should have 2 outcome : p or (1-p) i.e, success or failure only.
there are fixed number of trials (n)
the trials are independent

here, the trials are obviously independent ( because, one person's debt doesn't influence the other person's)

here n=250

the probability of success(0.35) is same for every trial

(35/100=0.35 is the required p here)

$\mu_{p} =n*p=250*\frac{35}{100} =250*0.35=87.5$

[since, the formula for $\mu _{p} =n*p$ ]

$\sigma _{p} =\sqrt{n*(p)*(1-p)} = \sqrt{250*0.35*(1-0.35)} = 7.542 ( approximately)$

[since, the formula for [tex]\sigma _{p} =\sqrt{n*(p)*(1-p)}

therefore, it is Binomial; \mu p=87.5, \sigma p=7.542

Answer: 8^2 18^2

Step-by-step explanation: The way that you figure out the power is by multiplying the 4x2=8 than the 9x2=18 than you raise them both to the second power.
