→Answer:

y = -1/4x - 6

→Step-by-step explanation:

Well it is a negative slope with a y intercept of -6.

And to spring the slope we need to use the following formula.

$\frac{y^2-y^1}{x^2-x^1}$

So we need 2 points on the line to use the formula.

(-4,-5) (0,-6)

-6 - -5 = -1

0 - -4 = 4

So the slope is -1/4.

Hence, the equation is y = -1/4x - 6

Chapman’s brickyard sells bricks and blocks. A brick costs $0.38 and a block costs $1.56. The brickyard filled a $24.80 order, w

Lisa [10]

Answer:

number of bricks = 16 and number of blocks = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

From given information it seems , we need to determine number of bricks and number of blocks.

lets assume number of bricks = x

and number of blocks = y

since total items in brickyard is 28

⇒ number of bricks + number of blocks = 28

⇒ x + y = 28 ----------------------- equation 1

Given that cost of 1 brick = $0.38 and cost of 1 block =$1.56

so cost of x bricks = cost of 1 brick × x = 0.38x

And cost of y blocks = cost of 1 block × y = 1.56y

total cost of 28 items order = $24.80

total cost of 28 items = cost of x bricks + cost of y blocks

⇒0.38x + 1.56y = 24.80 ----------------equation 2

Now we are having following two equations

x + y = 28 ----------------------- equation 1

0.38x + 1.56y = 24.80 ----------------equation 2

from equation 1 we get x = 28 - y , substituting this value of x in equation 2 we get

0.38(28 - y) + 1.56y = 24.80

⇒10.64-0.38y+1.56y= 24.80

⇒1.18y = 24.80 - 10.64

⇒y = 14.16÷1.18 = 12

substituting value of y in equation 1 we get

x + 12 = 28

⇒x = 16

hence number of bricks = x = 16 and number of blocks = y = 12

Maggie is creating a cushion for a circular stool. The stool has a diameter of 14 inches. If she needs fabric to extend 2 inches

Marianna [84]

Answer:

396 in.^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The cushion is shaped like a cylinder with 14 inch diameter and 2 inch height.

We need to find the surface area of the cylinder.

diameter = 14 in.

radius = diameter/2 = 7 in.

height = 2 in.

A = 2(pi)r^2 + 2(pi)rh

A = 2(3.14159)(7 in.)^2 + 2(3.14159)(7 in.)(2 in.)

A = 395.84 in.^2

A = 396 in.^2

let X represent the amount of time till the next student will arriv ein the library partking lot at the university. If we know t

AlekseyPX

Answer:

0.606531 = 60.6531% probability that it will take between 2 and 132 minutes for the student to arrive at the library parking lot.

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential distribution:

The exponential probability distribution, with mean m, is described by the following equation:

$f(x) = \mu e^{-\mu x}$

In which $\mu = \frac{1}{m}$ is the decay parameter.

The probability that x is lower or equal to a is given by:

$P(X \leq x) = \int\limits^a_0 {f(x)} \, dx$

Which has the following solution:

$P(X \leq x) = 1 - e^{-\mu x}$

The probability of finding a value higher than x is:

$P(X > x) = 1 - P(X \leq x) = 1 - (1 - e^{-\mu x}) = e^{-\mu x}$

Mean of 4 minutes

This means that $m = 4, \mu = \frac{1}{4} = 0.25$

Find the probability that it will take between 2 and 132 minutes for the student to arrive at the library parking lot:

This is:

$P(2 \leq X \leq 132) = P(X \leq 132) - P(X \leq 2)$

In which

$P(X \leq 132) = 1 - e^{-0.25*132} = 1$

$P(X \leq 2) = 1 - e^{-0.25*2} = 0.393469$

$P(2 \leq X \leq 132) = P(X \leq 132) - P(X \leq 2) = 1 - 0.393469 = 0.606531$

0.606531 = 60.6531% probability that it will take between 2 and 132 minutes for the student to arrive at the library parking lot.
