Step-by-step explanation:
This is a linear equation in slope intercept form which is

where m is the slope and b is the y intercept.
The equation

Has a slope of -1/3 so this means that the slope will be decreasing. A negative linear equation increases as we go left. and decreases as we go right. The y intercept is 2. So this means the graph must pass through (0,2) and when x=0, y must be 2.
In other words, look for a line that the y values increase as we go left and decrease we go right. Also look for a point (0,2) and make sure the graph pass through it.
Answer:
y = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
y/9 = 2/6
y/9 = 1/3 (dividing by 2in both numerator and denominator.)
CROSS MULTIPLYING WE GET
3y = 9*1
3y = 9
y = 3
Answer:
$301 - $397
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the Empirical rule
1) 68% of data falls within 1 standard deviation from the mean - that means between μ - σ and μ + σ .
2)95% of data falls within 2 standard deviations from the mean - between μ – 2σ and μ + 2σ .
3)99.7% of data falls within 3 standard deviations from the mean - between μ - 3σ and μ + 3σ .
From the above question,
Mean = 349 , standard deviation = 24.
Confidence interval = 95%
Using 2)95% of data falls within 2 standard deviations from the mean - between μ – 2σ and μ + 2σ .
μ – 2σ
= 349 - 2(24)
= 349 - 48
= 301
μ + 2σ
349 + 2(24)
= 349 + 48
= 397
Therefore, according to the standard deviation rule, approximately 95% of the students spent between $301 and $397 on textbooks in a semester.
Answer:
a. 24
b. 2
c. 0.0833 = 8.33%
Step-by-step explanation:
a.
The first "slot" of person to arrive has 4 possibilities, then the second "slot" will have 3 possibilities, as one has already arrived, then the third "slot" has 2 possibilities, and the fourth "slot" has just 1 possibility.
So, multiplying all these combinations, we have 4*3*2*1 = 24 possible ways they can arrive
b.
If the first and the last person are already "locked", we just have possibilities for the second and third person. The second will have 2 possibilities (Sergio or Tyrone), and the third will have only 1 (the person that wasn't the second between Sergio and Tyrone). So, the number of possibilities is 2*1 = 2
c.
If we have 2 cases where Dawn is first and Jim is last, from a total of 24 possible cases, the probability is 2/24 = 1/12 = 0.0833 = 8.33%
