Answer:

y=-5x-3

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel means that it has the same slope (-5)

then, using the point slope formula,

y-(-2)=-5(x-(-1))

y+2=-5x-1

y=-5x-3

A vending machine automatically pours soft drinks into cups. The amount of soft drink dispensed into a cup is normally distribut

klemol [59]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the amount of soft drink dispensed into a cup is normally distributed, we would apply the formula for normal distribution which is expressed as

z = (x - µ)/σ

Where

x = amount in ounce of soft drink dispensed into cup.

µ = mean amount

σ = standard deviation

From the information given,

µ = 7.6oz

σ = 0.4 oz

a) The probability that the machine will overflow an 8-ounce cup is expressed as

P(x > 8) = 1 - P(x ≤ 8)

For x = 8,

z = (8 - 7.6)/0.4 = 1

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.84

P(x ≤ 8) = 1 - 0.84 = 0.16

b) P(x< 8) = 0.84

c) when the machine has just been loaded with 848 cups, the number of cups expected to overflow when served is

0.16 × 848 = 136 cups

I don’t understand this one

Masja [62]

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

Put -1 where x is in each expression and evaluate it.

You will find that the expression is zero when the numerator is zero. And you will find the numerator is zero when it has a factor that is equivalent to ...

(x +1)

Substituting x=-1 into this factor makes it be ...

(-1 +1) = 0

Evaluating the first expression, we have ...

$\dfrac{4(x+1)}{(4x+5)}=\dfrac{4(-1+1)}{4(-1)+5}=\dfrac{4\cdot 0}{1}=0$

This first expression is one you want to "check."

You can see that the reason the expression is zero is that x+1 has a sum of zero. You can look for that same sum in the other expressions. (The tricky one is the one with the factor (x -(-1)). You know, of course, that -(-1) = +1.)
