Y=mx+b
m=slope
so we just have to convert it to such
5y=x-3
sivide both sides by 5 to get 1y
y=1/5x-3/5
y=mx+b
m=1/5
slope=1/5

Easy,

it's already good, written in y=mx+b form

m=slope

You have,

5y=x-3

Divide by 5 to isolate the y

$\frac{5y}{5}= \frac{x}{5}- \frac{3}{5}$

Making it,

y= $\frac{1}{5} x- \frac{3}{5}$

The slope,m, is $\frac{1}{5}$ .

Verify that P = Ce^t /1 + Ce^t is a one-parameter family of solutions to the differential equation dP dt = P(1 − P).

Answer:

See verification below

Step-by-step explanation:

We can differentiate P(t) respect to t with usual rules (quotient, exponential, and sum) and rearrange the result. First, note that

$1-P=1-\frac{ce^t}{1+ce^t}=\frac{1+ce^t-ce^t}{1+ce^t}=\frac{1}{1+ce^t}$

Now, differentiate to obtain

$\frac{dP}{dt}=(\frac{ce^t}{1+ce^t})'=\frac{(ce^t)'(1+ce^t)-(ce^t)(1+ce^t)'}{(1+ce^t)^2}$

$=\frac{(ce^t)(1+ce^t)-(ce^t)(ce^t)}{(1+ce^t)^2}=\frac{ce^t+ce^{2t}-ce^{2t}}{(1+ce^t)^2}=\frac{ce^t}{(1+ce^t)^2}$

To obtain the required form, extract a factor in both the numerator and denominator:

$\frac{dP}{dt}=\frac{ce^t}{1+ce^t}\frac{1}{1+ce^t}=P(1-P)$

Help me on all of the questions below plz

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

1- The answer is that she wants the new time to be 32 minutes

Solution: The question asks that she wants to DECREASE by 20%

What you will do it convert 20% to a decimal (which is 0.20)

Then, you need to multiply the minutes by the decimal:

40 x 0.20 = 8 minutes

Now you know that 8 minutes will be 20% of 40 minutes, so you just subtract 8 from 40 UwU

12+8+8=28
8 students are wearing a blue shirt so the probability is 8/28
