Answer: in your case, point slope form will be y+1 = (the parellel slope or M)(x-0)

Step-by-step explanation:

basically the point slope form is suppose to be y - (y coodinate) = (M or slope)(x - (x coodinate) )

Parellel lines are the slope is the same, but the coordinates aren't

eg. what is the equation, in point slope form, of the coordinate of a line (3,4) that is parellel to the equation: y = 3/4x + 6

no. 1: slope is 3/4

no. 2 plug all info into the equation: y - (y coodinate) = (M or slope)(x - (x coodinate) )

no.3 you have your equation! y - 4 = 3 / 4 ( x - 3 )

Toni bought 5 t-shirts for 35 if each T-shirt cost the same amount .how much tony would pay for20 shirts

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer: The answer is Toni can buy 20 tee shirts for 140 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

First you find out how many times 5 can go into 20

Next you see that 5 can go into 20, 4 times so you take the 35 and multiply 4 and you get 140 so you can buy 20 tee shirts for 140 dollars.

Let X be the number of the cars being repaired at a repair shop. We have the following information:

worty [1.4K]

Answer:

(a) Sample Space

$S = \{0,1,2,3\}$

(b) PMF

$\begin{array}{ccccc}x & {0} & {1} & {2} & {3} \ \\ {P(x)} & {1/3} & {1/6} & {1/6} & {1/3} \ \end{array}$

(c) CDF

$\begin{array}{ccccc}x & {0} & {1} & {2} & {3} \ \\ {F(x)} & {1/3} & {1/2} & {2/3} & {1} \ \end{array}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving (a): The sample space

From the question, we understand that at most 3 cars will be repaired.

This implies that, the number of cars will be 0, 1, 2 or 3

So, the sample space is:

$S = \{0,1,2,3\}$

Solving (b): The PMF

From the question, we have:

$P(2) = P(1)$

$P(0) = P(3)$

$P(1\ or\ 2) = 0.5 * P(0\ or\ 3)$

$P(1\ or\ 2) = 0.5 * P(0\ or\ 3)$ can be represented as:

$P(1) + P(2) = 0.5[P(0) + P(3)]$

Substitute $P(2) = P(1)$ and $P(0) = P(3)$

$P(1) + P(1) = 0.5[P(0) + P(0)]$

$2P(1) = 0.5[2P(0)]$

$2P(1) = P(0)$

$P(0)= 2P(1)$

Also note that:

$P(0) + P(1) + P(2) + P(3) = 1$

Substitute $P(2) = P(1)$ and $P(0) = P(3)$

$P(0) + P(1) + P(1) + P(0) = 1$

$2P(1) + 2P(0) = 1$

Substitute $P(0)= 2P(1)$

$2P(1) + 2*2P(1) = 1$

$2P(1) + 4P(1) = 1$

$6P(1) = 1$

Solve for P(1)

$P(1) = \frac{1}{6}$

To calculate others, we have:

$P(2) = P(1)$

$P(2) = P(1) = \frac{1}{6}$

$P(0)= 2P(1)$

$P(0) =2 * \frac{1}{6}$ $P(0) =\frac{1}{3}$

$P(3) = P(0) =\frac{1}{3}$

Hence, the PMF is:

$\begin{array}{ccccc}x & {0} & {1} & {2} & {3} \ \\ {P(x)} & {1/3} & {1/6} & {1/6} & {1/3} \ \end{array}$

Solving (c): The CDF ; F(x)

This is calculated as:

$F(x) = P(X \le x) =\sum\limit^{3}_{x_i \le x} P(x_i)$

For x = 0;

We have:

$P(X \le 0) = P(0)$

$P(X \le 0) = 1/3$

For x = 1

$P(X \le 1) = P(0) + P(1)$

$P(X \le 1) = 1/3 + 1/6$

$P(X \le 1) = 1/2$

For x = 2

$P(X \le 2) = P(0) + P(1) + P(2)$

$P(X \le 2) = 1/3 + 1/6 + 1/6$

$P(X \le 2) = 2/3$

For x = 3

$P(X \le 3) = P(0) + P(1) + P(2) + P(3)$

$P(X \le 3) = 1/3 + 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/3$

$P(X \le 3) = 1$

Hence, the CDF is:

$\begin{array}{ccccc}x & {0} & {1} & {2} & {3} \ \\ {F(x)} & {1/3} & {1/2} & {2/3} & {1} \ \end{array}$
