Slope of TV = Slope of PR
(y + 1)/(x - 5) = (0 + 4)/(-10 + 4)
(y + 1)/(x - 5) = -4/6
6(y + 1) = -4(x - 5)
6y + 6= -4x + 20
equation #1: 6y + 4x = 14

Slope of RT = Slope of PV
(y - 0)/(x + 10) = (-1 + 4)/(5 + 4)
(y - 0)/(x + 10) = 3/9
3(y - 0) = 9(x + 10)
3y = 9x +90
equation #2: 3y = 9x +90

<span>We now we have 2 equations with 2 variables, and we can use any method (substitution, linear combination, matrix) to solve for the x and y coordinates.
</span>
equation #1: 6y + 4x = 14
equation #2: 3y - 9x = 90

Multiply equation 2 by -2

equation #1: 6y + 4x = 14
equation #2: -6y + 18x = -180

Add together Eq. 1 & 2

22x = -166
x = -7.5

6y +4(-7.5) = 14
6y = 44
y = 7 1/3

(-7 1/2, 7 1/3)

a) $80 - ($80 x 0.75)

= $80 - $60

= $20

b) $20 x 0.10

= $2

c) $20 - $2

= $18

The water works commission needs to know the mean household usage of water by the residents of a small town in gallons per day.

valina [46]

Answer:

A sample of 179 is needed.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our $\alpha$ level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

$\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.85}{2} = 0.075$

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of $1 - \alpha$ .

That is z with a pvalue of $1 - 0.075 = 0.925$ , so Z = 1.44.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

$M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

In which $\sigma$ is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

A previous study found that for an average family the variance is 1.69 gallon?

This means that $\sigma = \sqrt{1.69} = 1.3$

If they are using a 85% level of confidence, how large of a sample is required to estimate the mean usage of water?

A sample of n is needed, and n is found for M = 0.14. So

$M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

$0.14 = 1.44\frac{1.3}{\sqrt{n}}$

$0.14\sqrt{n} = 1.44*1.3$

$\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.44*1.3}{0.14}$

$(\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.44*1.3}{0.14})^2$

$n = 178.8$

Rounding up

A sample of 179 is needed.
