Let's make "x" the variable for Maria's age.

And since Maria's father is 20 years older than Maria:

Age of Maria's Father = x + 20.

Janelle graphed a line through (−6, 5) that had a slope of −79. What is the y-coordinate of a point on the line that has an x-co

jeyben [28]

Answer:

The value of the y-coordinate is -706

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a straight line is;

y = mx + c

where m is slope and c is t-intercept

Given the slope, we can write the equation as;

y = -79x + c

we need to get c

Just put in the x and y values of the given point

X = -6 and y = 5

5 = -79(-6) + c

5 = 474 + c

c = 5-474 = -469

So the complete equation of the line would

be ;

y = -79x - 469

To get the y-coordinate of the point, just insert the x value into the equation;

y = -79(3) - 469

y = -237 - 469 = -706

Help somebody plzzzzzzz

Eddi Din [679]

-5 = 3/4x - 2
-5 + 2 = 3/4x
-3 = 3/4x
-3 / (3/4) = x
-3 * 4/3 = x
-12/3 = x
-4 = x <==

Arlecino [84]

Answer:

$P(X \geq 2) = 1-P(X$

And we can find the individual probabilities using the probability mass function and we got:

$P(X=0) = (30C0) (0.05)^0 (1-0.05)^{30-0} =0.2146$

$P(X=1) = (30C1) (0.05)^1 (1-0.05)^{30-1} = 0.3389$

And replacing we got:

$P(X \geq 2) = 1-P(X$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".

Let X the random variable of interest, on this case we now that:

$X \sim Binom(n=30, p=0.05)$

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

$P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}$

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

$nCx=\frac{n!}{(n-x)! x!}$

Solution to the problem

For this case we want this probability:

$P(X \geq 2)$

And we can use the complement rule and we got:

$P(X \geq 2) = 1-P(X$

And we can find the individual probabilities using the probability mass function and we got:

$P(X=0) = (30C0) (0.05)^0 (1-0.05)^{30-0} =0.2146$

$P(X=1) = (30C1) (0.05)^1 (1-0.05)^{30-1} = 0.3389$

And replacing we got:

$P(X \geq 2) = 1-P(X$

Multiple Choice Precalculus Question!

Delvig [45]

From the diagram you can see that for all $x\in (-2,2),$ $f(x)=-2.$

This means that function is constant on the interval $(-2,2).$
