Answer: There were 212 robberies in 2012.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of robberies in Springfield in 2013 = 265

Rate of growth in 2013 = 25%

We need to find the number of robberies there were in 2012.

Let the number of robberies in 2012 be x

so, According to question,

\frac{100+25}{100}\times x=265\\\\\frac{125}{100}\times x=265\\\\1.25\times x=265\\\\x=\frac{265}{1.25}\\\\x=212

Hence, there were 212 robberies in 2012.

Please help. I think its B since the y-intercept is -1 and it rises up 3 and goes over 1 so that means it is just 3.
borishaifa [10]
You are correct about the y-intercept. In case you are unsure about the slope, you can check using y1 - y2 / x1 - x2:

(0, -1) and (1, 2)

-1 - 2 / 0 - 1
-3 / -1
3

The slope is 3; you chose the correct answer, great job.

Solve for x:  (x − 2) = 4x. (1 point)​
Georgia [21]

Steps:

(x-2)=4x

Pretend that there is a one in front of x-2

1(x-2)=4x

Multiply the bracket by 1

x-2=4x

Move x to the other side .Whenever you move a number or letter the sign changes.

x-x-2=4x-x

-2=3x

Divide by 3 for -2 and 3

-2/3=3/3 x

x=-2/3

Check answer by using substitution method

(-2/3-2)=4(-2/3)

(-2/3-6/3)=-8/3

-8/3=-8/3

Answer is -2/3

Bit transmission errors between computers sometimes occur, where one computer sends a 0 but the other computer receives a 1 (or
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

(a) Probability that a triplet is decoded incorrectly by the receiving computer. = 0.010

(b)

(1 – p) = 0.010

(c)

E(x) = 25000 x 0.010

     = 259.2

Explanation has given below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution:

(a) Probability that a triplet is decoded.

2 out of three

P = 0.94, n = 3

m= no of correct bits

m   bit (3, 0.94)

At p(m≤1) = B (1; 3, 0.94)

 = 0.010

(b) Using your answer to part (a),

(1 – p) = 0.010

Error for 1 bit transmission error.

(c)  How does your answer to part (a) change if each bit is repeated five times (instead of three?

P( m ≤ 2 )

L = Bit (5, 0.94)

   = B (2; 5, 0.94)

   = 0.002

(d)  Imagine a 25 kilobit message (i.e., one requiring 25,000 bits to send). What is the expected number of errors if there is no bit repetition implemented? If each bit is repeated three times?

Given:

h = 25000

Bits are switched during transmission between two computers = 6% = 0.06

m = Bit (25000, 0.06)

E(m) = np

        = 25000 x 0.06

         = 1500

m = Bit (25000, 0.01)

E(m) = 25000 x 0.010

     = 259.2
