Let f be a linear function such that f(2) =5 and f(6) = -1. find an equation for f(x).

1 answer:

6 0

Using f(x) = y, we know that a graph of the function contains the (x,y) points (2,5) and (6,-1). first find the slope of that line,
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) ⇒ -6/4⇒-3/2

then using either point (I'll use the first one) solve for b in y = mx + b.
5 = (-3/2)(2) + b⇒ 5 = -3 + b⇒ 8 = b.

So y = (-3/2)x + 8 ⇒ f(x) = (-3/2)x + 8.

Answer:

B) 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

The conditional probability of B given A (B|A) is P(A ∩ B) / P(A), when P(A) > 0 (Probability of the intersection of A and B over the Probability of A).

in our case, P(A ∩ B is the amount of people who can snowboard and surf, which according to the picture is 36

P(A) is the amount of people who can snowboard, which from the picture is 48

This means our conditional probability is 36/48, which when simplified is 3/4.

You deposit $200 in an account earning 3.5% simple interest how long will it take for the balance of the account to be $221

Rus_ich [418]

It takes 3 years for the balance of account to be $ 221

Solution:

From given information,

Principal = $ 200

Rate of interest = 3.5 %

Amount after "n" years = $ 221

To find: number of years

In simple Interest,

Simple interest = amount earned - principal

Simple interest = 221 - 200 = 21

Thus simple interest earned is $ 21

The formula for simple interest is given as:

$simple\ interest = \frac{ p \times n \times r}{100}$

Where,

p is the principal

n is the number of years

r is the rate of interest per annum

Substituting the given values in formula,

$21 = \frac{200 \times n \times 3.5}{100}\\\\21 = 2n \times 3.5\\\\n = \frac{21}{7}\\\\n = 3$

Thus it takes 3 years for the balance of account to be $ 221
