Answer:

y=mx+b is the formula. So -8=-3x+5 would be the answer..

since (x,y) just substitute these numbers you have it into the formulas... Take y from (5,-8) and place it into y=mx+b. Next take the slope which is -3. And then since its a postive number we add are x from (x,y). -8=-3x+5. We also add x next to the slope (-3) becuase we are trying to solve for x. And we always put it next to the slope. Hope this helps!

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

hello :

note :

Use the point-slope formula.

y - y_1 = m(x - x_1) you have : m=-3 and x_1 = 5 and y_1 = -8

an equation in the point-slope is : y +8 = m(x - 5)

Answer:

$\large\boxed{y=\dfrac{1}{4}x^2-x-4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a parabola in vertex form:

$y=a(x-h)^2+k$

(h, k) - vertex

The focus is

$\left(h,\ k+\dfrac{1}{4a}\right)$

We have the vertex (2, -5) and the focus (2, -4).

Calculate the value of a using $k+\dfrac{1}{4a}$

k = -5

$-5+\dfrac{1}{4a}=-4$ add 5 to both sides

$\dfrac{1}{4a}=1$ multiply both sides by 4

$4\!\!\!\!\diagup^1\cdot\dfrac{1}{4\!\!\!\!\diagup_1a}=4$

$\dfrac{1}{a}=4\to a=\dfrac{1}{4}$

Substitute

$a=\dfrac{1}{4},\ h=2,\ k=-5$

to the vertex form of an equation of a parabola:

$y=\dfrac{1}{4}(x-2)^2-5$

The standard form:

$y=ax^2+bx+c$

Convert using

$(a-b)^2=a^2-2ab+b^2$

$y=\dfrac{1}{4}(x^2-2(x)(2)+2^2)-5\\\\y=\dfrac{1}{4}(x^2-4x+4)-5$

use the distributive property: a(b+c)=ab+ac

$y=\left(\dfrac{1}{4}\right)(x^2)+\left(\dfrac{1}{4}\right)(-4x)+\left(\dfrac{1}{4}\right)(4)-5\\\\y=\dfrac{1}{4}x^2-x+1-5\\\\y=\dfrac{1}{4}x^2-x-4$

3x+6=30 i need some help

goldenfox [79]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+6=30

Get the co-efficient by itself

3x +6=30

-6. -6

3x=24

Divide by 3 on both sides

24/3

x =8

you are rolling a 10-sided die with sides numbered 1-10. you keep rolling the die until you roll a prime number and then stop. l

evablogger [386]

The formula for E(x) would be SUM[ X(n)P(n)] from n = 1 to n = infinity until we get the prime number

In the given problem, a 10-sided die with 1-10 numbers is rolled until we get a prime number

Prime numbers between 1-10 = 2,3,5,7 (4 prime numbers)

Non - prime numbers = 1,4,6,8,9,10( 6 non-prime number)

Let X be the number of times the die is rolled

The probability of getting a prime =

$P(Prime) = \frac{4}{10}$

Now, the value of

E(X)=∑x.P(x) [ x-> {1, infinity}]

= P(1)X(1) +P(2)X(2)+P(3)X(3)+P(4)X(4)........+ P(n)X(n)

= 1. $\frac{4}{10}$ + 2. $\frac{6}{10}$ . $\frac{4}{10}$ + 3. $\frac{6}{10}$ . $\frac{6}{10}$ $\frac{4}{10}$ + 4. $\frac{6}{10}$ . $\frac{6}{10}$ . $\frac{6}{10}$ . $\frac{4}{10}$ .......

Hence, this is the value of E(x)
