Answer:

  (1/2, 0), (0, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

We can determine the slope from ...

  slope = (change in y)/(change in x) = (10 -2)/(3 -1) = 8/2 = 4

Then an equation for the line can be written for slope m and point (h, k) as ...

  m(x -h) -(y -k) = 0

Using the slope we calculated and the first point, we have the equation ...

  4(x -1) -(y -2) = 0

  4x -4 -y +2 = 0 . . . . . eliminate parentheses

  4x -y = 2 . . . . . . . . . . put in standard form

Now, we can divide by the constant on the right to put this into intercept form:

  x/(x-intercept) + y/(y-intercept) = 1

  x/(1/2) + y/(-2) = 1

The x-intercept is 1/2; the y-intercept is -2.

Answer:

The probability that the first subject to be a universal blood donor is the seventh person selected is 0.0511

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start defining the random variable X.

X : ''The first success is on the xth trial''

X can be modeled as a geometric random variable with the following probability function :

P(X=x)=p(1-p)^{x-1}

Where P(X=x) is the probability of the random variable X to assumes the value ''x''.

The variable p is the success probability.

For this exercise, we define a success as someone randomly selected is a universal donor and that probability is p=0.09

We are looking for : P(X=7)

The probability function is :

P(X=x)=(0.09)(0.91)^{x-1}

P(X=7)=(0.09)(0.91)^{7-1}=(0.09)(0.91)^{6}=0.0511

Svetradugi [14.3K]
The order does not matter, so we will be using combinations here. 52C1 is the first one since there is only one possibility. 16C1 is the second. You have to multiply these two, so 52 X 16 = 832.
