Answer:

y=6/5x+13

Step-by-step explanation:

6y=-5x+16

Divide by 6

y=-5/6x + 8/3

Slope: 6/5 (opposite reciprocal)

7=-5(6/5)+b

7=-6+b

b=13

If you are looking for the equation of the line,

Use Point Slope Form

$y-y _{1} = m(x- x_{1})

$

y-4 = 3(x-1)
y-4 = 3x-3

y = 3x + 1

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

The steady state proportion for the U (uninvolved) fraction is 0.4.

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be modeled as a Markov chain, with two states:

U: uninvolved

M: matched

The transitions probability matrix is:

$\begin{pmatrix} &U&M\\U&0.85&0.15\\M&0.10&0.90\end{pmatrix}$

The steady state is that satisfies this product of matrixs:

$[\pi] \cdot [P]=[\pi]$

being π the matrix of steady-state proportions and P the transition matrix.

If we multiply, we have:

$(\pi_U,\pi_M)*\begin{pmatrix}0.85&0.15\\0.10&0.90\end{pmatrix}=(\pi_U,\pi_M)$

Now we have to solve this equations

$0.85\pi_U+0.10\pi_M=\pi_U\\\\0.15\pi_U+0.90\pi_M=\pi_M$

We choose one of the equations and solve:

$0.85\pi_U+0.10\pi_M=\pi_U\\\\\pi_M=((1-0.85)/0.10)\pi_U=1.5\pi_U\\\\\\\pi_M+\pi_U=1\\\\1.5\pi_U+\pi_U=1\\\\\pi_U=1/2.5=0.4 \\\\ \pi_M=1.5\pi_U=1.5*0.4=0.6$

Then, the steady state proportion for the U (uninvolved) fraction is 0.4.
