The linear equation in slope intercept form for population of Jose's town is y = 320x + 2400.

<u>Solution:</u>

Given, the population of Jose's town in 1995 was 2400 and the population in 2000 was 4000,  

Let x represent the number of years since 1995.  

We have to write a linear equation, in slope- intercept form, that represents this data.

Now, let the change in population per year be p.

Then, population in a year = population change per year \times number of years + population in 1995.

⇒population in a year = p\times x + population in 1995

⇒ population in a year = p \times x + 2400

Here we have an case that, population in 2000 is 4000  

Then, number of years since 1995 = 5  

So, 4000 = p \times 5 + 2400 ⇒ 5p = 4000 – 2400 ⇒ 5p = 1600 ⇒ p = 320

Then, our equation will be population in a year = 320x + 2400  

Considering the population in a year as y ⇒ y = 320x + 2400.

Hence, the linear equation in slope intercept form is y = 320x + 2400.

Solve for x: 1/2 (10x+6)=-2x+10
pickupchik [31]

Answer: x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

substitute 1 for x

1/2(10(1)+6) = -2(1)+10

1/2(10+6) = -2+10

5+3 = -2+10

Arnie decides to make 3 cups of dark orange paint and 3 cups of light orange paint.
dimulka [17.4K]

The question is an illustration of equivalent ratios.

  • 3 cups of dark orange require 3 ounces of yellow  paint
  • 3 cups of light orange require 19.5 ounces of yellow paint

1 cup of dark orange requires

Red = 7oz

Yellow =1oz

To make 3 cups, we simply multiply by 3, because 3 \times 1 = 3

So, we have:

Red = 7oz \times 3 = 21oz

Yellow =1oz \times 3 = 3oz

2 cups of light orange require

Red =3oz

Yellow =13

To make 3 cups, we simply multiply by 1.5, because 2 \times 1.5 = 3

So, we have:

Red = 3oz \times 1.5 = 4.5oz

Yellow = 13oz \times 1.5 = 19.5oz

Hence:

  • 3 cups of dark orange require 3 ounces of yellow  paint
  • 3 cups of light orange require 19.5 ounces of yellow paint

A study indicates that 37% of students have laptops. You randomly sample 30 students. Find the mean and the standard deviation o
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

The mean and the standard deviation of the number of students with laptops are 1.11 and 0.836 respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let <em>X</em> = number of students who have laptops.

The probability of a student having a laptop is, P (X) = <em>p</em> = 0.37.

A random sample of <em>n</em> = 30 students is selected.

The event of a student having a laptop is independent of the other students.

The random variable <em>X</em> follows a Binomial distribution with parameters <em>n</em> and <em>p</em>.

The mean and standard deviation of a binomial random variable <em>X</em> are:

\mu=np\\\sigma=\sqrt{np(1-p)}

Compute the mean of the random variable <em>X</em> as follows:

\mu=np=30\times0.37=1.11

The mean of the random variable <em>X</em> is 1.11.

Compute the standard deviation of the random variable <em>X</em> as follows:

\sigma=\sqrt{np(1-p)}=\sqrt{30\times0.37\times(1-0.37)}=\sqrt{0.6993}=0.836

The standard deviation of the random variable <em>X</em> is 0.836.
