y intercept = 1/2
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Step 1:
Formula y=mx+b in Slope Intercept form( whereas m= slope of the given equation, b= y intercept)
Step 2:
Comparing the given equation y = -3x + 1/2
we get m=-3(Slope) and y-intercept b=1/2
Add or subtract numbers from both sides
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The roots of the quadratic function (x-intercepts) are
x=-1 and x=5/3
so
we can write the equation of the parabola as

where
a is a coefficient
Remember that
The parabola pass through the point (5,40)
substitute the value of x and the value of y of the ordered pair in the quadratic equation and solve for a
x=5, y=40



substitute

apply distributive property

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : A new catalyst is being investigated for use in the production of a plastic chemical. Ten batches of the chemical are produced. The mean yield of the 10 batches is 72.5% and the standard deviation is 5.8%. Assume the yields are independent and approximately normally distributed.
To find : A 99% confidence interval for the mean yield when the new catalyst is used ?
Solution :
Let X be the yield of the batches.
We have given, n=10 ,
, s=5.8%
Since the size of the sample is small.
We will use the student's t statistic to construct a 995 confidence interval.

From the t-table with 9 degree of freedom for 


The 99% confidence interval is given by,
