A direct variation must satisfy both of two conditions:
1. It must pass through the origin (which this graph does)
2. It must be a straight line (which this graph does not satisfy).
Therefore the given graph is NOT a direct variation.

Corollary:
If a function satisfies both of the above conditions, it has an equation of the form
y=kx
where k is a constant not equal to zero.

This way, we can tell a direct variation even from an equation.
Note: y=4x+2 is NOT a direct variation because the "+2" makes the straight line not pass through the origin.
y=2x^2 is not a direct variation because a function containing any other power of x is no longer a straight line.

It is not direct variation because it does not follow the equation
y = slopex
THE points do not make the equation true .

Find the probability that the senator was in the Democratic party, given that the senator was returning to office.

shutvik [7]

Answer:

The probability that the senator was in the Democratic party, given that the senator was returning to office is 0.4715.

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is:

Sophia made the following two-way table categorizing the US senators in 2015 by their political party and whether or not it was their first term in the senate.

Democratic Republican Independent Total

First Term 11 28 11 50

Returning 33 26 11 70

Total 44 54 22 120

Find the probability that the senator was in the Democratic party, given that the senator was returning to office.

Solution:

The conditional probability of an event A given that another event X has already occurred is given by:

$P(A|X)=\frac{P(A\cap X)}{P(X)}$

The probability of an event E is given by the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes to the total number of outcomes.

$P(E)=\frac{n(E)}{N}$

Compute the probability of selecting an US senator who is a Democratic and was returning to office as follows:

$P(D\cap R)=\frac{33}{120}=0.275$

Compute the probability of selecting an US senator who was returning to office as follows:

$P(R)=\frac{70}{120}=0.5833$

Compute the conditional probability, P (D | R) as follows:

$P(D|R)=\frac{P(D\cap R)}{P(R)}$

$=\frac{0.275}{0.5833}\\\\=0.4714555\\\\\approx 0.4715$

Thus, the probability that the senator was in the Democratic party, given that the senator was returning to office is 0.4715.

Feliz [49]

Distance to the star in light years = 3 * 0.62 * 9.5 * 10^12 = 1.767 * 10^13 miles

dividng this by 17,000 gives 1.039411765 * 10^9 hours
