Graph the linear equations. Find three points that solve the equation -3x + 2y= 2
fredd [130]

Answer:

(0,1) , (2,4) , (4,7)

Explanation:

convert the equation into slope-intercept form (this would be y=3/2x+1)

now plug in random numbers for x and solve for y by multiplying them by 3/2 and adding 1.

if you roll a fair 6-sided die 9 times, what is the probability that at least 2 of the rolls come up as a 3 or a 4?
Kay [80]

Using the binomial distribution, it is found that there is a 0.857 = 85.7% probability that at least 2 of the rolls come up as a 3 or a 4.

For each die, there are only two possible outcomes, either a 3 or a 4 is rolled, or it is not. The result of a roll is independent of any other roll, hence, the <em>binomial distribution</em> is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

The parameters are:

  • x is the number of successes.
  • n is the number of trials.
  • p is the probability of a success on a single trial.

In this problem:

  • There are 9 rolls, hence n = 9.
  • Of the six sides, 2 are 3 or 4, hence p = \frac{2}{6} = 0.3333

The desired probability is:

P(X \geq 2) = 1 - P(X < 2)

In which:

P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)

Then

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 0) = C_{9,0}.(0.3333)^{0}.(0.6667)^{9} = 0.026

P(X = 1) = C_{9,1}.(0.3333)^{1}.(0.6667)^{8} = 0.117

Then:

P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.026 + 0.117 = 0.143

P(X \geq 2) = 1 - P(X < 2) = 1 - 0.143 = 0.857

0.857 = 85.7% probability that at least 2 of the rolls come up as a 3 or a 4.

32. The debate team plans to make and sell trail
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

The first equation has to be the ratio of raisins to sunflower seeds. If r is raisins and p is sunflower seeds and there are 3 times as many raisins as sunflower seeds then the first equation must be 3r=p

The second equation should model the prices properly. Raisins are 1.5 per pound and sunflower seeds are 4 per pound, because of this we should have 1.5r (r being each pound of raisins) and 4p (p being each pound of sunflower seeds). From this we know the second equation must be 4p+1.5r=34

HELP!!! Which graph best shows the function f(x) = 4(3)−x to represent the rate at which a radioactive substance decays?​
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The exponential function has the form y = a(b^x) where a is the starting value or y-intercept. B is the rate of change and x is the variable typically time. In this situation, y = 4(3^{-x}) has starting value 4, rate 3 and a -x.

Normally an exponential curve glides left to right growing steeper as it goes. But a -x flips this behavior. The curve starts very steep then gradually slows down. This means only graphs B or D are options. Since only graph B of these two has a y-intercept at 4, graph B is the solution.
