Answer:
quantity a is halfed
Corrected question;
A quantity a varies inversely as a quantity b, if, when b changes a changes in the inverse ratio. What happens to the quantity a if the quantity b doubles?
Step-by-step explanation:
Analysing the question;
A quantity a varies inversely as a quantity b,
a ∝ 1/b
a = k/b ......1
when b changes a changes in the inverse ratio;
Since the change at the same ratio but inversely, k = 1
So, equation 1 becomes;
a = 1/b
If the quantity b doubles,
ab = 1
a1b1 = a2b2
When b doubles, b2 = 2b1
a1b1 = a2(2b1)
Making a2 the subject of formula;
a2 = a1b1/(2b1)
a2 = a1/2
Therefore, when b doubles, a will be divided by 2, that means a is halfed.

Subtract 13 from both sides
3p=24
Divide 3 on both sides

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;
Let X denote the time in minutes (rounded to the nearest half minute) for a blood sample to be taken. The probability mass function for X is:
x 0 0.5 1 1.5 2 2.5
f(x) 0.1 0.2 0.3 0.2 0.1 0.1
determine;
a) P( X < 2.5 )
B) P( 0.75 < X ≤ 1.5 )
Answer:
a) P( X < 2.5 ) = 0.9
b) P( 0.75 < X ≤ 1.5 ) = 0.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the data in the question;
The probability mass function for X is:
x 0 0.5 1 1.5 2 2.5
f(x) 0.1 0.2 0.3 0.2 0.1 0.1
a) P( X < 2.5 )
P( X < 2.5 ) = p[ x = 0 ] + p[ x = 0.5 ] + p[ x = 1 ] + p[ x = 1.5 ] + p[ x = 2 ]
so
P( X < 2.5 ) = 0.1 + 0.2 + 0.3 + 0.2 + 0.1
P( X < 2.5 ) = 0.9
b) P( 0.75 < X ≤ 1.5 )
P( 0.75 < X ≤ 1.5 ) = p[ x = 1 ] + p[ x = 1.5 ]
so
P( 0.75 < X ≤ 1.5 ) = 0.3 + 0.2
P( 0.75 < X ≤ 1.5 ) = 0.5
Answer:
y = (1/2)x - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
slope-intercept form: y =mx + b
m - slope,
b - y - intercept.
m = 1/2
b= - 3
y = (1/2)x - 3
