You know that the battery in your alarm clock is going to run out of power soon. If it runs out within the next 24 hours, what i

s the probability that it will happen while you are sleeping? Assume that you get 8 hours of sleep per night.

The probability of an event is given by the number of favorable outcomes divided by the total number of outcomes. Here the event is the alarm clock running out of power. There are 24 hours during which the power can go out. You are asleep during 8 of these. A "favorable" outcome in this case is the power going out while you are sleeping -- that is, during one of those 8 hours. This makes the probability that the power goes out while you are sleeping 8/24.

Answer:

8.2.69 ≤ x ≤ 17.31

11. x-7.31 ≤ 10

12. x≤17.31

Let the amount in the other Piggybank be x.

If positive;

x-7.31 ≤ 10

x ≤ 10+7.31

x ≤ 17.31

If negative

-(x-7.31) ≤ 10

-x+7.31 ≤ 10

-x ≤ 10-7.31

-x ≤ 2.69

Multiply both sides by -1

x ≥ -2.69

The compound inequality representing the amount of money in the other bank is -2.69≤x≤17.31

Complete the table of values for y=x^2-2
Harrizon [31]

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

For each value of x, we need to solve for y.

Our equation is x² -2. This means that we multiply x by itself ( x * x = x²), and then subtract that value by 2.

Here is a list of the unfilled answers:

x = -2:

-2²-2 = -2 * -2 -2 = 4-2 = 2. -2 * -2 = 4 because two negatives multiplied together makes a positive.

x=-1:

-1²-2 = 1 -2 = -1

x=1

1²-2 = 1-2= -1

x=3:

3²-2  = 9-2 = 7

b)

In this graph, the y represents the vertical part and x represents the horizontal. For each value of y, there is a horizontal line that can be drawn. For example, when y=0, the bolded horizontal line near the bottom of the graph represents that. We then need to find the points on the line representing x²-2 where it touches the horizontal line of y=0. This happens when x=-1.5 and x=1.5, as it is between the positive/negative 1 and 2 values of x

I need help finding the slope, identifying the initial value and writing An equation for a linear function and finding the X ans
pishuonlain [190]

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

✔️Slope (m) using the two points (2, 4.58) and (5, 4.28):

slope (m) = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} = \frac{4.28 - 4.58}{5 - 2} = \frac{-0.3}{3} = -0.1

Slope (m) = -0.1

✔️Initial Value = y-intercept = b

To find b, substitute x = 2, y = 4.58, and m = -0.1 into y = mx + b.

(Note: y is P(t) and x is t).

Thus:

4.58 = (-0.1)(2) + b

4.58 = -0.2 + b

Add 0.2 to both sides

4.58 + 0.2 = b

4.78 = b

b = 4.78

Initial value = 4.78

✔️Equation for the linear function:

Substitute b = 4.78, and m = -0.1 into P(t) = mt + b

Thus the equation would be:

P(t) = -0.1t + 4.78

✔️The y-intercept = initial value = 4.78

✔️The x-intercept = the value of t when P(t) = 0.

To get this, substitute P(t) = 0 into P(t) = -0.1t + 4.78.

Thus:

0 = -0.1t + 4.78

Add 0.1t to each side

0.1t = 4.78

Divide both sides by 0.1

t = 47.8

x-intercept = 47.8
