The equation of a graph is 4x - 3y = 5. What is the x-intercept?

2 answers:

6 0

4x - 3y = 0

The x-intercept is the point on the graph where it crosses the x-axis.
But everywhere on the x-axis, y=0.
So, at the intercept ...

4x - 3(0) = 5

4x = 5

Divide each side by 4 : x = 5/4 or 1.25

X intercept is where y=0
so make y=0
4x-0=5
x=5/4

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

You should pick Spinner A. There is a high chance of getting red since there are three pieces of the spinner that has red on it, while Spinner B only has 2 instances of red.

Help Please I'm Out Of Time ;(

trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

Total area = 31.5 unit²

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume 1 block = 1 unit²

Divide diagram into 3 part

1. 5 by 5 block square

2. 2 by 2 block triangle(1)

2. 3 by 3 block triangle(2)

Area of square = side × side

Area of square = 5 × 5

Area of square = 25 unit²

Area of triangle(1) = [1/2][base][height]

Area of triangle(1) = [1/2][2][2]

Area of triangle(1) = 2 unit²

Area of triangle(2) = [1/2][base][height]

Area of triangle(2) = [1/2][3][3]

Area of triangle(2) = 4.5 unit²

Total area = Area of square + Area of triangle(1) +Area of triangle(2)

Total area = 25 unit² + 2 unit² + 4.5 unit²

Total area = 31.5 unit²

A ski lift is designed with a total load limit of 20,000 pounds. It claims a capacity of 100 persons. An expert in ski lifts thi

Yanka [14]

Answer:

0.5 = 50% probability that a random sample of 100 independent persons will cause an overload

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be 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.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ .

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For the sum of n values of a distribution, the mean is $\mu \times n$ and the standard deviation is $\sigma\sqrt{n}$

An expert in ski lifts thinks that the weights of individuals using the lift have expected weight of 200 pounds and standard deviation of 30 pounds. 100 individuals.

This means that $\mu = 200*100 = 20000, \sigma = 30\sqrt{100} = 300$

If the expert is right, what is the probability that a random sample of 100 independent persons will cause an overload

Total load of more than 20,000 pounds, which is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 20000. So

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

$Z = \frac{20000 - 20000}{300}$

$Z = 0$

$Z = 0$ has a pvalue of 0.5

1 - 0.5 = 0.5

0.5 = 50% probability that a random sample of 100 independent persons will cause an overload

I'm really confused about this but how do you solve problems with finding the slope of a line pls I need help with a whole front

faust18 [17]

To find the slope you use the slope formula y2-y1 / x2-x1. So use two point on the line we will make ours (1,2) and (3,4). Substitute to make 4-2 / 3-1 = 1/1 so using the rise over run method. The line rises up one and runs by one. The slash mark means divide, it's easiest in a fraction.

Also if you come across the equation y=mx+b, m is the slope and b is the y-intercept, this is called slope intercept formula.
