Slope (m) = 1
Y-intercept (b) = -4

Formula: y = mx + b
To put it in the y=mx+b formula, you just have to plug it in so the answer would be...

y = 1x + -4

Hope that helped

Answer:

150

Step-by-step explanation:

If you had 3 dollars plus the 10 your mom gave you would have 13. Then, if you dad gave you 30 that would be 43. Plus the 100 your aunt and uncle gave you would be 143. Plus 7 would be your answer of 150

Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

All real values of x where x < −1.

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a turning point at x= 1 and f(x) = -4 and it open upwards.

So it decreases for all real values of x where x < 1. But it passes through the point (-1, 0) after which the values of the function become negative.

So the answer is all real values where x < -1.

Two teams A and B play a series of games until one team wins three games. We assume that the games are played independently and

Olenka [21]

Answer:

The probability that the series lasts exactly four games is $3p(1-p)(p^{2} + (1 - p)^{2})$

Step-by-step explanation:

For each game, there are only two possible outcomes. Either team A wins, or team A loses. Games are played independently. This means that we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

We also need to know a small concept of independent events.

Independent events:

If two events, A and B, are independent, we have that:

$P(A \cap B) = P(A)*P(B)$

What is the probability that the series lasts exactly four games?

This happens if A wins in 4 games of B wins in 4 games.

Probability of A winning in exactly four games:

In the first two games, A must win 2 of them. Also, A must win the fourth game. So, two independent events:

Event A: A wins two of the first three games.

Event B: A wins the fourth game.

P(A):

A wins any game with probability p. 3 games, so n = 3. We have to find P(A) = P(X = 2).

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(A) = P(X = 2) = C_{3,2}.p^{2}.(1-p)^{1} = 3p^{2}(1-p)$

P(B):

The probability that A wins any game is p, so P(B) = p.

Probability that A wins in 4:

A and B are independent, so:

$P(A4) = P(A)*P(B) = 3p^{2}(1-p)*p = 3p^{3}(1-p)$

Probability of B winning in exactly four games:

In the first three games, A must win one and B must win 2. The fourth game must be won by 2. So

Event A: A wins one of the first three.

Event B: B wins the fourth game.

P(A)

P(X = 1).

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(A) = P(X = 1) = C_{3,1}.p^{1}.(1-p)^{2} = 3p(1-p)^{2}$

P(B)

B wins each game with probability 1 - p, do P(B) = 1 - p.

Probability that B wins in 4:

A and B are independent, so:

$P(B4) = P(A)*P(B) = 3p(1-p)^{2}*(1-p) = 3p(1-p)^{3}$

Probability that the series lasts exactly four games:

$p = P(A4) + P(B4) = 3p^{3}(1-p) + 3p(1-p)^{3} = 3p(1-p)(p^{2} + (1 - p)^{2})$

The probability that the series lasts exactly four games is $3p(1-p)(p^{2} + (1 - p)^{2})$
