State the slope and y intercept of the graph of 9-x=2y

1 answer:

8 0

The equation of a line is given by y = mx + c; where m is the slope.
The given equation is 9 - x = 2y
y = -1/2 x + 9/2
Therefore, the slope is -1/2 and the y-intercept is 9/2.

An individual repeatedly attempts to pass a driving test. Suppose that the probability of passing the test with each attempt is

vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

a) Our random variable X="number of tests taken until the individual passes" follows a geomteric distribution with probability of success p=0.25

For this case the probability mass function would be given by:

$P(X= k) = (1-p)^{k-1} p , k = 1,2,3,...$

b) $P(X \leq 3) = P(X=1) +P(X=2) +P(X=3)$

$P(X= 1) = (1-0.25)^{1-1} *0.25 = 0.25$

$P(X= 2) = (1-0.25)^{2-1} *0.25 = 0.1875$

$P(X= 3) = (1-0.25)^{3-1} *0.25 = 0.1406$

And adding the values we got:

$P(X \leq 3) =0.25+0.1875+0.1406=0.578$

c) $P(X \geq 5) = 1-P(X$

And we can find the individual probabilities:

$P(X= 1) = (1-0.25)^{1-1} *0.25 = 0.25$

$P(X= 2) = (1-0.25)^{2-1} *0.25 = 0.1875$

$P(X= 3) = (1-0.25)^{3-1} *0.25 = 0.1406$

$P(X= 4) = (1-0.25)^{4-1} *0.25 = 0.1055$

$P(X \geq 5) = 1-[0.25+0.1875+0.1406+0.1055]= 0.316$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The geometric distribution represents "the number of failures before you get a success in a series of Bernoulli trials. This discrete probability distribution is represented by the probability density function:"

$P(X=x)=(1-p)^{x-1} p$

Let X the random variable that measures the number of trials until the first success, we know that X follows this distribution:

$X\sim Geo (1-p)$

Part a

Our random variable X="number of tests taken until the individual passes" follows a geomteric distribution with probability of success p=0.25

For this case the probability mass function would be given by:

$P(X= k) = (1-p)^{k-1} p , k = 1,2,3,...$

Part b

We want this probability:

$P(X \leq 3) = P(X=1) +P(X=2) +P(X=3)$

We find the individual probabilities like this:

$P(X= 1) = (1-0.25)^{1-1} *0.25 = 0.25$

$P(X= 2) = (1-0.25)^{2-1} *0.25 = 0.1875$

$P(X= 3) = (1-0.25)^{3-1} *0.25 = 0.1406$

And adding the values we got:

$P(X \leq 3) =0.25+0.1875+0.1406=0.578$

Part c

For this case we want this probability:

$P(X \geq 5)$

And we can use the complement rule like this:

$P(X \geq 5) = 1-P(X$

And we can find the individual probabilities:

$P(X= 1) = (1-0.25)^{1-1} *0.25 = 0.25$

$P(X= 2) = (1-0.25)^{2-1} *0.25 = 0.1875$

$P(X= 3) = (1-0.25)^{3-1} *0.25 = 0.1406$

$P(X= 4) = (1-0.25)^{4-1} *0.25 = 0.1055$

$P(X \geq 5) = 1-[0.25+0.1875+0.1406+0.1055]= 0.316$

A Rectangular has area 12a^2 and perimeter 14a what are the dimensions of this Rectangular?

Nataliya [291]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

3a by 4a

Step-by-step explanation:

For dimensions L and W, the area and perimeter are ...

A = LW = 12a^2

P = 2(L+W) = 14a

Using the second equation, we can find L:

L +W = 7a . . . . . divide by 2

L = 7a -W

Substituting into the area formula gives the quadratic ...

(7a -W)(W) = 12a^2

W^2 -7aW +12a^2 = 0 . . . . arrange in standard form

(W -3a)(W -4a) = 0 . . . . . . . factor (find factors of 12 that total 7)

Then we have the two solutions ...

W = 3a, L = 4a

W = 4a, L = 3a

The rectangle dimensions are 3a by 4a.
