Hello! The x-intercept is where the line crosses the x-axis when y = 0. We already have the expression shown. We will plug in 0 as y to get this:

5x - 8(0) = 40.

As you probably know, anything times 0 is 0, so -8 * 0 is 0. All we have is 5x = 40. Divide each side by 5 to isolate the x. 5x/5 cancels out. 40/5 is 8. There. x = 8. The x-intercept is (8, 0).

azamat

Answer:

Probability (Both fail)  = 0.001369

Probability (None fails) =0.927369

Probability (at least one fails)   = 0.072631

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

Probability (fail) P = 0.037

two alternators is  independent

solution

we get here first  probability that both will fail will be

Probability (Both fail) = 0.045²    ................1

Probability (Both fail)  = 0.001369

and

now we get probability that neither will fail

Probability (None fails) = (1-0.037)²              ...............2

Probability (None fails) =0.927369

and

now we get probability that at least one fails

Probability (at least one fails)  = 1 - Probability (non fails)     .................3

Probability (at least one fails)   = 1 - 0.927369

Probability (at least one fails)   = 0.072631
