2(l+w)=16
l+w=16:2
l+w=8

for l>w

l=7, w=1
l=6, w=2
l=5, w=3

The points (6, -3) and (7, -10) fall on a particular line. What is its equation in point-slope form? Use one of the specified po

kumpel [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the coordinate points (6, -3) and (7, -10), we are to find the equation of a line passing through this two points;

The standard equation of a line is y = mx+c

m is the slope

c is the intercept

Get the slope;

m = Δy/Δx = y2-y1/x2-x1

m = -10-(-3)/7-6

m = -10+3/1

m = -7

Get the intercept;

Substitute the point (6, -3) and m = -7 into the expression y = mx+c

-3 = -7(6)+c

-3 = -42 + c

c = -3 + 42

c = 39

Get the required equation by substituting m = -7 and c= 39 into the equation y = mx+c

y = -7x + 39

Hence the required equation is y = -7x + 39

8.The weight distribution of parcels sent in a certain manner is normal with mean value 12lb and standard deviation 3.5 lb. The

Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

The value is c = 21.1445.

Step-by-step explanation:

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 z-score 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 p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

The weight distribution of parcels sent in a certain manner is normal with mean value 12lb and standard deviation 3.5 lb.

This means that $\mu = 12, \sigma = 3.5$

What value of c is such that 99% of all parcels are at least 1 lb under the surcharge weight?

This 1 added to the value of X for the 99th percentile, which is X when Z has a p-value of 0.99, so X when Z = 2.327.

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

$2.327 = \frac{X - 12}{3.5}$

$X - 12 = 2.327*3.5$

$X = 20.1445$

1 + 20.1445 = 21.1445

The value is c = 21.1445.
