Answer:

Option (c) is correct.

The slope of a line is represented by the variable 'm'

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The slope a line

We have to choose which variable is used to represent the slope of a line.

Since, the general equation of line is represented by the equation

y = mx + c ,

where m is slope

and c is y intercept.

So , we represent the slope of line by the variable 'm'

Thus, The slope of a line is represented by the variable 'm'

M is the slope. - X is an independent variable. Y is a dependent variable. B is the where the line crosses the Y-axis.

Here are two rectangles.

creativ13 [48]

Answer:

$\frac{Area \:of\: rectangle\: A}{Area \:of\: rectangle\: B} =\frac{4}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of rectangle A be x units.

So, length of rectangle B

= x + 25% of x

= x + 0.25x

= 1.25x

Let the width of rectangle A be y units

So, Width of rectangle B

$= \frac{3}{5}\times x\\=0.6x$

Area of rectangle A = xy

Area of rectangle B

= 1.25x * 0.6y

= 0.75xy

$\frac{Area \:of\: rectangle\: A}{Area \:of\: rectangle\: B} =\frac{xy}{0.75xy}\\\\\frac{Area \:of\: rectangle\: A}{Area \:of\: rectangle\: B} =\frac{1}{0.75}\\\\\frac{Area \:of\: rectangle\: A}{Area \:of\: rectangle\: B} =\frac{100}{75}\\\\\red{\bold{\frac{Area \:of\: rectangle\: A}{Area \:of\: rectangle\: B} =\frac{4}{3}}} \\\\$

An insurance salesman sells on average 10.4 life insurance policies per week. Find the probability that in a particular week he

Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

$P(X=x) =\lambda^x \frac{e^{-\lambda}}{x!}, X= 0,1,2,...$

$P(X=8) = \frac{e^{-10.4} 10.4^8}{8!}= 0.1033$

And that would be the solution for this case.

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The Poisson process is useful when we want to analyze the probability of ocurrence of an event in a time specified. The probability distribution for a random variable X following the Poisson distribution is given by:

$P(X=x) =\lambda^x \frac{e^{-\lambda}}{x!}, X= 0,1,2,...$

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the number of life insurance policies that the salesman person sells. We know that $X \sim Poisson(\lambda=10.4)$

And we want to find this probability:

$P(X =8)$

And we can use the probability mass function and we got:

$P(X=8) = \frac{e^{-10.4} 10.4^8}{8!}= 0.1033$

And that would be the solution for this case.
