Answer:

y = -1/2x - 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-Intercept Form: y = mx + b

m - slope

b - y-intercept

Step 1: Define

y = -1/2x + 3/7

Point (-1, 0)

Step 2: Find parallel line

<em>Parallel lines have the same slope as the original but different y-intercepts.</em>

<em>m</em> = -1/2

y = -1/2x + b

0 = -1/2(-1) + b

0 = 1/2 + b

b = -1/2

Step 3: Write parallel line

y = -1/2x - 1/2

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

The required probability is 0.031918.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

It is given that According to an article in The Wall Street Journal, this theory held for 22 out of the last 34 years.

Therefore n=34

The probability it is either up or down is 0.5.

Thus the value of p =0.5 and q = 0.5

Now calculate the probability

Let X is the number of years that theory held.

X has a binomial distribution with n=34 and p=0.5

P(X=22)=\binom{34}{22}(0.5)^{22}(0.5)^{12}\\P(X=22)=\frac{34!}{22!\times 12!}(0.5)^{22}(0.5)^{12}\\P(X=22)=548354040\times 5.8207660913\times 10^{11}\\P(X=22)=0.0319184060208\\P(X=22)\approx0.031918

Hence, the required probability is 0.031918.

Butoxors [25]

Answer:

<h2>S=$3</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the cost of cooler is $44

money given to the two sons $50

let S represent the amount the two son will have to share equally

the change is 50-44=6

=$6

Then s=6/2=$3

applying with the expression directly we have

S = (50 - 44)/2

S = (6)/2

S=$3

4. Jim and Kirk are playing a card game where they trade chips. At the beginning of the game, Jim has four times as many chips a
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

(a) j = 4k

(b) 4k - 18 = 18 + k

(c) Jim initially had 48; Kirk initially had 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

j = Jim

k=Krik

Solving (a): An equation for the amount they originally had.

From the question, we understand that j is 4 times as many as k.

Mathematically, this is:

j = 4 * k

j = 4k

Solving (b): Equation after Kirk wins

Initially Kirk had k.

To get the new expression, we add 18 to k.

This gives: 18 + k

In the same vein, Jim's number of chirps will reduce by 18.

Initially, Jim had j chirps (or 4k chirps)

To get the new expression, we subtract 18 from j.

This gives: j - 18

So, the equation is:

j - 18 = 18 +k

Solving (c): Number of chirps they started with.

In (b), we have:

j - 18 = 18 +k

Substitute 4k for j

4k - 18 = 18 + k

Collect Like Terms

4k - k = 18 + 18

3k = 36

Divide both sides by 3

k =12

Substitute 12 for k in j = 4k

j = 4 * 12

j = 48
