Answer:

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

You have -5x + (-2) = -2x +4 add 5x on both sides and you will have

-2 = -2x + 5x +4 simplify

-2 = 3x + 4 add -4 on both sides

-2 -4 = 3x

3x = -6 divide both sides by 3

x = -2

write an equation in slope intercept form for the line described. perpendicular to y = -1/2x + 2/3, passes through (2,3)

Alex17521 [72]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!

Follow the steps to get answer.

Use one point formula and find 1st equation.
After that you find the slope of second equation.
Use the condition of perpendicular lines and find the slope of first equation.
Put slope value of equation in equation (i) and simplify them to get equation.

The equation of a line passing through point (2,3) is;

(y-3)= m1(x-2).......(i).

Another equation is;

$y = \frac{ - 1}{2} x + \frac{2}{3}$

2nd equation..

Now, From equation (ii)

We have;

Comparing equation (ii) with y = mx+c.

We get;

Slope = -1/2.

For perpendicular lines,

$m1 \times m2 = - 1$

$m1 \times \frac{ - 1}{2} = - 1$

Therefore the slope is 2.

Put value of slope (m1) in equation (i). We get;

$(y - 3) = 2(x - 2)$

Simplify them to get equation.

$(y - 3) = 2x - 4$

$y = 2x - 1$

Therefore the required equation is y = 2x-1.

Hope it helps..

Industry standards suggest that 8 percent of new vehicles require warranty service within the first year. Jones Nissan in Sumter

jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be the no of vehicles that require warranty service within I year out of vehicles sold (9) yesterday.

Each vehicle is independent of the other to get warranty service

Hence X is binomial with p=8% = 0.08

So P(X=x) = $9Cx (0.08)^x (1-0.08)^{9-x} ,x=0,1,2...9$

$a) P(X=0) = 0.472161\\b) P(x=1) = 0.3695$

c) $P(X=2) = 0.1285$

d) Mean = Mean of binomial = np =

$9(0.08) = 0.72$

Var (x) = npq = $0.6624$

Std dev = square root of variance = 0.8139
