What are the x- and y-intercepts of y=-3x -9?

Mathematics

Answer:

x-intercept (-3,0)

y-intercept  (0,-9)

Step-by-step explanation:

The x-intercepts can be found by setting y to 0 and solving for x.

y=-3x-9

0=-3x-9

Add 9 on both sides:

9=-3x

Divide both sides by -3:

9/-3=x

-3=x

The x-intercept is (-3,0).

The y-intercepts can be found by setting x to 0 and solving for y.

y=-3x-9

y=-3(0)-9

y=0-9

y=-9

The y-intercept is (0,-9).

Answer:

<h2>x-intercept: x = -3 → (-3, 0)</h2><h2>y-intercept: y = -9 → (0, -9)</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

x-intercept is for y = 0.

y-intercept is for x = 0.

y = -3x - 9

x-intercept (<em>put y = 0</em>):

0 = -3x - 9            <em>add 9 to both sides</em>

9 = -3x          <em>divide both sides by (-3)</em>

-3 = x → x = -3

y-intercept (<em>put x = 0</em>):

y = -3(0) - 9

y = 0 - 9

y = -9

A tobacco company claims that the amount of nicotene in its cigarettes is a random variable with mean 2.2 and standard deviation
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

0% probability that the sample mean would have been as high or higher than 3.1 if the company’s claims were true.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central limit theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a random variable X, with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, a large sample size can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 2.2, \sigma = 0.3, n = 100, s = \frac{0.3}{\sqrt{100}} = 0.03

What is the approximate probability that the sample mean would have been as high or higher than 3.1 if the company’s claims were true?

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 3.1. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

By the Central Limit Theorem

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

Z = \frac{3.1 - 2.2}{0.03}

Z = 30

Z = 30 has a pvalue of 1.

1 - 1 = 0

0% probability that the sample mean would have been as high or higher than 3.1 if the company’s claims were true.

Write the multiplicative inverse of 1.725. Enter your answer as a fraction in its simplest form. The multiplicative inverse of 1
Katarina [22]
Multiplicative inverse is a number which when multiplied with the current number, the answer unit (that is, 1).

Now,
1.725 = 1725/1000 = 69/40

Inverting this and multiplying it with the results yields 1. That is,

69/40*40/69 = 1
Therefore, the multiplicative inverse of 1.725 is 40/69
