Find the equation in terms of x of the line through the points (-4,-4) and (5,-5)

Mathematics
1 answer:
zhuklara [117]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The answer to your question is:  y = -1/9 x - 40/9

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

A (-4 , -4)

B (5, -5)

Formula

m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

y = mx + b

(y - y1) = m(x - x1=

Process

m = (-5 + 4) / (5 + 4)

m = -1 / 9

( y +4) = -1/9 (x + 4)

y + 4 = -1/9 x - 4/9

y = -1/9 x - 4/9 - 4

y = -1/9 x - 4/9 - 36/9

y = -1/9 x - 40/9

The sum of a student's three score is 246. if the first is 14 points more than the second, and the sum of the first two is 6 mor
mr_godi [17]
Let the second score = x
⇒ second score = x

<span>the first is 14 points more than the second
</span>⇒ first score = x + 14

<span>the sum of the first two is 6 more than twice the third
</span>⇒ third score = 1/2 (x + x + 14 - 6) = x + 4

<span>The sum of a student's three score is 246
</span>⇒ x + (x + 14) + (x + 4) = 246
<span>
Solve x:
</span>x + x + 14 + x + 4 = 246
3x + 18 = 246
3x = 228
x = 76

second score = x = 76
first score = x + 14 = 76 + 14 = 90

Of the following equations below, which equation represents a direct variation between x and y?
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

C. y +3 = x +3

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find in below option x has direct variation with y.

We solve for each;

A. 2y = 3x-7

From above equation we can state that 2 times y is equal to 7 less than 3 times of x.

Hence it doesn't represent direct variation.  

B. y-4 = x+6

Solving above expression we get;

y-4 = x+6\\y = x+6+4\\y=x+10

From above equation we can state that y is equal to 10 more than x.

Hence it doesn't represent direct variation.

C. y+3 = x+3

Solving above expression we get;

y+3 = x+3\\y = x+3-3\\y=x

From above equation we can state that y is equal to x.

Hence it represent direct variation.

D. 4y+1 = 4x-1

Solving above expression we get;

4y+1 = 4x-1\\4y = 4x-1-1\\4y=4x-2

From above equation we can state that 4 times y is equal to 2 less than 4 times of x.

Hence it doesn't represent direct variation.

Hence the Answer which represent direct variation of x and y is,

C. y+3 = x+3

Birth weights at a local hospital have a Normal distribution with a mean of 110 oz and a standard deviation of 15 oz. The propor
OLga [1]

Answer:

The proportion of infants with birth weights between 125 oz and 140 oz is 0.1359 = 13.59%.

Step-by-step explanation:

When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this question, we have that:

\mu = 110, \sigma = 0.15

The proportion of infants with birth weights between 125 oz and 140 oz is

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 140 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 125. So

X = 140

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{140 - 110}{15}

Z = 2

Z = 2 has a pvalue of 0.9772

X = 125

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{125 - 110}{15}

Z = 1

Z = 1 has a pvalue of 0.8413

0.9772 - 0.8413 = 0.1359

The proportion of infants with birth weights between 125 oz and 140 oz is 0.1359 = 13.59%.
