Answer:

y - 7 = 3(x + 3)  and  y = 3x + 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the slope first:

As we go from (–3, 7) to (1, –5), x increases by 4 and y increases by 12.  Hence, the slope is m = rise / run = 12 / 4, or m = 3.

Next, modify the point-slope form y - k = m(x - h) by inserting the given info:

                                                        y - 7 = 3(x -[-3]), or

                                                         y - 7 = 3(x + 3)

Note:  (h, k) represents the given point, which I have chosen to be (-3, 7).

Next, convert this result to slope-intercept form.  Begin by solving this equation for y:  y = 7 = 3x + 9, or:

y = 3x + 16

If the density of the full can is 1.2 g/cc what is the mass ?
Natali5045456 [20]
Mass=Density*Volume
Density=1.1 g/cc
Volume of a cylinder: <span>π*r^2*h
</span>Radius of the top of the can: 3.57
Volume of this can: 480.47
480.47*1.1=528.517
If I'm correct the mass of this can should be 528.517

I’m not really sure how to work this out can someone plssss help me
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

Perimeter of the rectangle=Perimeter of the trapezium

2{(3x+4)+(4x)}=2(5x)+(x-3)+(7x-3)

→2(7x+4)=10x+x-3+7x-3

→14x+8=18x-6

→4x=14

→x=7/2

<u>→</u><u>x=3.5</u>

The value of x is <u>3.5 cm</u>

1469.52 round to the nearest tenths place
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

1469.5

Step-by-step explanation:

when rounding to whichever place always look at the number to the right of the spot you are rounding to

since "2" is less than 5 we ignore all the numbers after the tenths place

hope this helps!

I need help!! #28 #29<br> Please!!!!!
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We would apply the formula for binomial distribution. It is expressed as

P(x = r) = nCr × q^(n - r) × p^r

Where

n = number of samples

p = probability of success.

q = probability of failure

From the information given,

n = 12

p = 90% = 90/100 = 0.9

q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.9 = 0.1

28) Probability that at least 10 are ripe within 4 days is expressed as

P(x ≥ 10) = P(x = 10) + P(x = 11) + P(x = 12)

P(x = 10) = 12C10 × 0.1^(12 - 10) × 0.9^10 = 0.23

P(x = 11) = 12C11 × 0.1^(12 - 11) × 0.9^11 = 0.38

P(x = 12) = 12C12 × 0.1^(12 - 12) × 0.9^12 = 0.28

P(x ≥ 10) = 0.23 + 0.38 + 0.28 = 0.89

29) Probability that no more than 9 are ripe within 4 days is expressed as

P(x ≤ 9) = 1 - P(x ≥ 10)

P(x ≤ 9) = 1 - 0.89 = 0.11

Log5 (x) &lt;-2<br> I need help fast
OleMash [197]

Answer: x < -2.861353

Step-by-step explanation:

simplify to: 0.69897x <-2

divide both sides by 0.69897

0.69897/0.69897 < -2/0.69897

so the answer is x < -2.861353
