Answer:

y = -1/5x +32/5

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope intercept form of the equation of a line is

y = mx+b

we know m = -1/5

y = -1/5x+b

We know a x and y on the line

7 = -1/5(-3) +b

7 = 3/5 +b

Subtract 3/5 from each side

35/5 -3/5 = b

32/5 =b

So the equation is

y = -1/5x +32/5

Options 1 and 3

Step-by-step explanation:

We should know that, the system of linear equations can be treated as matrices, i.e: we can modify or make any operations provide that we must apply the same operation for all terms of each equation.

Given: the solution for the following system is (2,9)

Px + Qy = R ⇒(1)

Tx + Uy = V ⇒(2)

We will check which system of equation has the same solution.

System A) Px + Qy = R

(P+T)x + (Q+U)y = R+V ⇒(3)

So, By summing (1) and (2) we will get the equation (3)

So, system A has the same solution (2,9)

System B) Px + Qy = R

(P+2T)x + (Q+2U)y = R-2V ⇒(4)

By multiplying equation (2) by 2 and add with equation (1), we will get:

(P+2T)x + (Q+2U)y = R+2V

Which is not the same as equation (4)

So, system B has not the same solution (2,9)

System C) (T-P)x + (U-Q)y = V-R ⇒(5)

Tx + Uy = V

By multiplying equation (1) by -1 and add with equation (2), we will get the equation (5)

So, system C has the same solution of (2,9)

System D) (T-P)x + (Q+U)y = V-R ⇒(6)

Tx + Uy = V

We cannot get equation (6) by the same operation over equation (1)

Note the coefficient of x and y⇒ (T-P) and (Q+U)

They must be (T+P) and (Q+U) OR (T-P) and (Q-U)

So, system D has not the same solution of (2,9)

System E) (5T-P)x + (5U-Q)y = V-5R ⇒ (6)

Tx + Uy = V

By subtract equation (1) from 5 times equation (2), we will get:

(5T-P)x + (5U-Q)y = 5V-R

Which is not the same as equation (6)

So, system E has not the same solution (2,9)

As a conclusion, the systems which have the same solution are:

A food-packaging apparatus underfills 10% of the containers. Find the probability that for any particular 10 containers the numb

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

a) $P(X = 1) = 0.38742$

b) $P(X = 3) = 0.05740$

c) $P(X = 9) = 0.00000$

d) $P(X \geq 5) = 0.00163$

Step-by-step explanation:

For each container, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it is undefilled, or it is not. This means that we can solve this problem using the binomial probability distribution.

Binomial probability distribution:

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$
