Find the value of y so that line is passing through two points

1 answer:

6 0

Slope of a line passing through two given points
= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

For m=3, and substituting coordinates,
3=(1-y)/(4-1)
solve for y
1-y=3*3=9
y=1-9=-8

Answer: y=-8

John bought 3 pineapples and 2 watermelons for $8.50. Sue bought 2 pineapples and 4 watermelons for $13.00. Write and show a sys

AleksAgata [21]

As per your question, total cost of watermelon should end with either 5(for odd quantity) or 0(for even quantity).

If the quantity of watermelon is odd, then the total cost value of pineapple should end with 3 and this is not possible when the cost of pineapple is ₹7.

So let's come to conclusion that the count(quantity) of watermelon should be any one of 0, 2, 4, 6.

If count of watermelon is 6: It will cost ₹30 and for remaining ₹8, we can buy 1 pineapple but still ₹1 will not be utilised. So 1 pineapple is not possible

If count of watermelon is 4: It will cost ₹20 and for remaining ₹18, we can buy 2 pineapple with ₹4 not being utilised. So 2 pineapple is also not possible.

If count of watermelon is 2: It will cost ₹10 and for remaining ₹28, we can buy 4 pineapple with all amount being utilised. We can buy 4 pineapple along with with 2 watermelon for ₹38.

If count of watermelon is 0: It will cost you ₹0 and for remaining ₹38, we can buy 5 pineapple with ₹3 being not utilised. So 5 pineapple is also not possible.

So the answer is 4 pineapple.

3. Is the relationship shown by the data linear? If so, model the data with an equation X | Y 1 ,5| 5,10| 9,15| 13,20|

son4ous [18]

Answer:

$y=\frac{5}{4}x+\frac{15}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

x | y

-------

1 5

5 10

9 15

13 20

This one is linear because as x goes up by the same number so does y. So the ratio of difference of y to difference of x is the same per pair of points.

So a linear equation in slope-intercept form is y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

To find the slope, I'm going to line up the points vertically and subtract, then put 2nd difference over 1st difference. Like so,

( 1 , 5)

-( 5 , 10)

----------------

-4 -5

So the slope is 5/4 which makes sense since the y's are going up by 5 each time and the x's are going up by 4 each time.

So we have m=5/4. Let's plug that into our y=mx+b.

y=5/4 x+b

To find b, we need to use y=5/4 x+b along with one of the given points.

Choose; it doesn't matter. I like (1,5) I guess.

y=5/4 x +b with (1,5)

5=5/4 (1)+b

5=5/4 +b

Subtract 5/4 on both sides:

5-5/4=b

20/4-5/4=b (Found a common denominator)

15/4=b

The y-intercept is 15/4 so b=15/4.

So the equation for the line in slope-intercept form is y=5/4 x +15/4.

$y=\frac{5}{4}x+\frac{15}{4}$

Ok so I’m not sure but here’s what I would do to solve it
There is only one x so
X+
5.1+3.2=8.3
So
X+8.3 is the answer

In a chemical plant, 24 holding tanks are used for final product storage. Four tanks are selected at random and without replacem

Damm [24]

Answer:

a) P(A) = 0,4607 or P(A) = 46,07 %

b) P(B) = 0,7120 or 71,2 %

c) P(C) = 0,2055 or P(C) = 20,55 %

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use two concepts in solving this problem.

1.- The probability of an event (A) is for definition:

P(A) = Number of favorable events/ Total number of events FE/TE

2.- If A and B are complementary events ( the sum of them is equal to 1) then:

P(A) = 1 - P(B)

a) The total number of events is:

C ( 24,4) = 24! / 4! ( 24 - 4 )! ⇒ C ( 24,4) = 24! / 4! * 20!

C ( 24,4) = 24*23*22*21*20! / 4! * 20!

C ( 24,4) = 24*23*22*21/4*3*2

C ( 24,4) = 24*23*22*21/4*3*2 ⇒ C ( 24,4) = 10626

TE = 10626

Splitting the group of tanks in two 6 with h-v and 24-6 (18) without h-v

we get that total number of favorable events is the product of:

FE = 6* C ( 18, 3) = 6 * 18! / 3!*15! = 18*17*16*15!/15!

FE = 4896

Then P(A) ( 1 tank in the sample contains h-v material is:

P(A) = 4896/10626

P(A) = 0,4607 or P(A) = 46,07 %

b) P(B) will be the probability of at least 1 tank contains h-v

P(B) = 1 - P ( no one tank with h-v)

Again Total number of events is 10626

The total number of favorable events for the ocurrence of P is C (18,4)

FE = C (18,4) = 18! / 14!*4! = 18*17*16*15*14!/14!*4!

FE = 18*17*16*15/4*3*2 = 3060

Then P = 3060/10626

P = 0,2879

And the probability we are looking for is

P(B) = 1 - 0,2879

P(B) = 0,7120 or 71,2 %

c) We call P(C) the probability of finding exactly 1 tank with h-v and t-i

having 4 with t-i tanks is:

reasoning the same way but now having 4 with t-i (impurities) number of favorable events is:

FE = 6*4* C(14,2) = 24 * 14!/12!*2!

FE = 24* 14*13*12! / 12!*2

FE = 24*14*13/2 ⇒ FE = 2184

And again as the TE = 10626

P(C) = 2184/ 10626

P(C) = 0,2055 or P(C) = 20,55 %

Answer:

using Pythagoras rule, 16^2 -7^2 =a^2

so 256-49 = 297.
