How to solve linear and nonlinear equations graphically?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Ede4ka [16]3 years ago
8 0
Plot the equation. If you wish to solve a polynomial, let y= polynomial and plot the graph. Best set up a table of values first.
Where the graph crosses the x axis there is a solution for x. There are also solutions for other horizontal lines (y values) by looking at intersections of the graph with these lines. This technique works for linear and non linear equations. You can also use graphs to solve 2-variable systems of equations by examining where the graphs intersect one another. The disadvantage is that you may not be able to have sufficient detail for high degrees of accuracy because of the scale of the graph and drawing inaccuracies.

The number of accidents per week at a hazardous intersection varies with mean 2.2 and standard deviation 1.1. This distribution
cluponka [151]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The definition of the Central Limi Theorem states that:

Be a population with probability function f(X;μ,δ²) from which a random sample of size n is selected. Then the distribution of the sample mean tends to the normal distribution with mean μ and variance δ²/n when the sample size tends to infinity.

As a rule, a sample of size greater than or equal to 30 is considered sufficient to apply the theorem and use the approximation.

X[bar]≈N(μ;σ²/n)

If the variable of interest is X: the number of accidents per week at a hazardous intersection.

There is no information about the distribution of this variable, but a sample of n= 52 weeks was taken, and since the sample is large enough you can approximate the distribution of the sample mean to normal. With population mean μ= 2.2 and standard deviation σ/√n= 1.1/√52= 0.15

I hope it helps!

Find the equation of a line given the point and slope below. Arrange your answer in the form y = mx + b, where b is the constant
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

y = 2x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a point and the slope, we can plug in these values into the equation to find the value of b:

y = mx + b

3 = 2(1) + b

3 = 2 + b

1 = b

Plug b into the equation:

y = 2x + 1

Many, many snails have a one-mile race, and the time it takes for them to finish is approximately normally distributed with mean
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

a) The percentage of snails that take more than 60 hours to finish is 4.75%.

b) The relative frequency of snails that take less than 60 hours to finish is 95.25%.

c) The proportion of snails that take between 60 and 67 hours to finish is 4.52%.

d) 0% probability that a randomly-chosen snail will take more than 76 hours to finish

e) To be among the 10% fastest snails, a snail must finish in at most 42.32 hours.

f) The most typical 80% of snails take between 42.32 and 57.68 hours to finish.

Step-by-step explanation:

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.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 50, \sigma = 6

a. The percentage of snails that take more than 60 hours to finish is

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 60.

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

Z = \frac{60 - 50}{6}

Z = 1.67

Z = 1.67 has a pvalue 0.9525

1 - 0.9525 = 0.0475

The percentage of snails that take more than 60 hours to finish is 4.75%.

b. The relative frequency of snails that take less than 60 hours to finish is

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 60.

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

Z = \frac{60 - 50}{6}

Z = 1.67

Z = 1.67 has a pvalue 0.9525

The relative frequency of snails that take less than 60 hours to finish is 95.25%.

c. The proportion of snails that take between 60 and 67 hours to finish is

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 67 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 60.

X = 67

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

Z = \frac{67 - 50}{6}

Z = 2.83

Z = 2.83 has a pvalue 0.9977

X = 60

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

Z = \frac{60 - 50}{6}

Z = 1.67

Z = 1.67 has a pvalue 0.9525

0.9977 - 0.9525 = 0.0452

The proportion of snails that take between 60 and 67 hours to finish is 4.52%.

d. The probability that a randomly-chosen snail will take more than 76 hours to finish (to four decimal places)

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 76.

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

Z = \frac{76 - 50}{6}

Z = 4.33

Z = 4.33 has a pvalue of 1

1 - 1 = 0

0% probability that a randomly-chosen snail will take more than 76 hours to finish

e. To be among the 10% fastest snails, a snail must finish in at most hours.

At most the 10th percentile, which is the value of X when Z has a pvalue of 0.1. So it is X when Z = -1.28.

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

-1.28 = \frac{X - 50}{6}

X - 50 = -1.28*6

X = 42.32

To be among the 10% fastest snails, a snail must finish in at most 42.32 hours.

f. The most typical 80% of snails take between and hours to finish.

From the 50 - 80/2 = 10th percentile to the 50 + 80/2 = 90th percentile.

10th percentile

value of X when Z has a pvalue of 0.1. So X when Z = -1.28.

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

-1.28 = \frac{X - 50}{6}

X - 50 = -1.28*6

X = 42.32

90th percentile.

value of X when Z has a pvalue of 0.9. So X when Z = 1.28

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

1.28 = \frac{X - 50}{6}

X - 50 = 1.28*6

X = 57.68

The most typical 80% of snails take between 42.32 and 57.68 hours to finish.
