they are straight lines that make a plus
Answer:
a = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 2x + 1 ......(1)
Going through y - y1 = m(x - x1)
m is slope and it is 2
y1 = 9 and x1 = a
y - 9 = 2(x - a)
y - 9 = 2x - 2a
y = 2x - 2a + 9 ........(2)
Equating (1) and (2)
2x + 1 = 2x - 2a + 9
Collecting like terms
2x - 2x + 2a = 9 - 1
2a = 8
a = 8/2
a = 4
Given:
μ = $3.26 million, averaged salary
σ = $1.2 million, standard deviation
n = 100, sample size.
Let x = random test value
We want to determine P(x>4).
Calculate z-score.
z = (x - μ)/ (σ/√n) = (4 - 3.26)/(1.2/10) = 6.1667
From standard tables,
P(z<6.1667) = 1
The area under the distribution curve = 1.
Therefore
P(z>6.1667) = 1 - P(z<=6.1667) = 1 - 1 = 0
Answer: The probability is 0.
Answer:
Emma was right to say that both packages are close to 2 pounds.
If we round-off the weights of both to the nearest whole number we would get 2 pounds on both. We look at the the difference of both from 2 pounds we get the following:
2.36 - 2.0 = 0.36
2.09 - 2.0 = 0.09
The smaller the difference the closer it is to the base value. So we can say that the closest one is 2.0 pounds is the package that weighs 2.09 pounds.
