Answer:

the y coordinate is 5

Step-by-step explanation:

In the figure attached, the directed line segment is shown.

J is located at (-3, 1) and K is located at (-8, 11)

run: x2 -x1 = -8 - (-3) = -5

rise: y2 - y1 = 11 - 1 = 10

Taking J as reference, the coordinate of the point that divides the directed line segment from J to k into a ratio of 2:3 is:

c = 2/(2+3) = 0.4

(x1 + c*run, y1 + c*rise)

(-3 + 0.4*-5, 1+0.4*10)

(-5, 5)

Reserve Problems Chapter 4 Section 5 Problem 2 A laptop company claims up to 10.1 hours of wireless web usage for its newest lap

Viktor [21]

Answer:

0.1151

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a laptop company claims up to 10.1 hours of wireless web usage for its newest laptop battery life. However, reviews on this laptop shows many complaints about low battery life. A survey on battery life reported by customers shows that it follows a normal distribution with mean 9.5 hours and standard deviation 30 minutes.

If X is the battery life then X is N(9.5, 0.5)

(we convert into one unit for calculations purpose here hours)

a) the probability that the battery life is at least 10.1 hours

= $P(X\geq 10.1)\\=P(Z\geq \frac{10.1-9.5}{0.5} )\\= P(Z\geq 1.2)\\=0.1151$

we get the probability that the battery life is at least 10.1 hours is 0.1151

Solving systems of equations using substitution/elimination
Solving systems of equations by graphing

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define Systems

16x + 14y = 8

-63x - 14y = 133

Step 2: Solve for x

Elimination

Combine 2 equations: -47x = 141
Divide -47 on both sides: x = -3

Step 3: Solve for y

Define original equation: 16x + 14y = 8
Substitute in x: 16(-3) + 14y = 8
Evaluate multiplication: -48 + 14y = 8
Add 48 on both sides: 14y = 56
Divide 14 on both sides: y = 4

Step 4: Graph Systems

Check the solution set.
