Answer:

1) These linear functions must not describe a pair of parallel lines.

2) Any intersection of two lines determines a point.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Well, since no further details were given. Let's call the linear function that represents the number of animals adopted from the shelter s(x). And

the hours the volunteers work at the shelter each week v(x)

1) These linear functions must not describe a pair of parallel lines.

If these lines intersect, then their slope must be different.

m_{s}\neq m_{v}\\e.g.\\m_{s}=2\\m_{v}=-2

Equal slopes, parallel lines. Parallel lines, no intersection.

Different slopes, then there is an intersection at some point.

2) Any intersection of two lines determines a point. Let's find it.

So to find one common point equalize the two functions, then find the value for the x-coordinate. Plug it in one of the functions, e.g.

2x+2=-2x+2 \rightarrow 4x=0 \therefore x=0\\2(0)+2=2 \Rightarrow (0,2)

At the common point, both functions after inserted the same value in the Domain (x) return the same result for their respective  Range set.

In Rivertown High School, about 30% of the students buy a raffle ticket. Given that a student buys a raffle ticket, there is a 1
lesya [120]

The probability that that a randomly selected student will buy a raffle ticket and win a prize = 0.03

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 :

Given,

The percentage of students buying the raffle ticket = 30%

The percentage that the student who bought the ticket wins the prize = 10%

We need to determined the probability that randomly selected student will buy a raffle ticket and win a prize.

Step 2 :

The probability that a student buys the raffle ticket =  \frac{30}{100}  = \frac{3}{10}

The probability that a student wins a prize = \frac{10}{100} = \frac{1}{10}

The probability that a student who buys the ticket wins a price can be computed by taking the product of the above 2 probabilities.

 = \frac{3}{10} × \frac{1}{10}  = \frac{3}{100} = 0.03

Step 3 :

Answer :

The probability that that a randomly selected student will buy a raffle ticket and win a prize = 0.03

To find whether there is an association between these two let us find the correlation coefficient between these two variables.

r=-0.1975

Since |r|<0.5, correlation is weak.  

Let us test the hypothesis r =0

H0:r=0

Ha:r not equals 0

Test statistic = \frac{r\sqrt{n-2} }{\sqrt{1-r^2} } \\=\frac{-0.1975\sqrt{11-2} }{\sqrt{1-0.1975^2} }\\=\frac{-0.5625}{{0.9803} } \\=-0.5738

p =0.298

Since p value >0.10, at 90% significance level we accept that there is no association.

Consider the baggage check-in process of a small airline. Check-in data indicates that from 9am to 10am, 220 passengers checked
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

3.6 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the data given in the question, between 9 and 10 AM, 220 passengers have checked in which means that the check-in rate is 3.6 passengers per minute. If the average number of passengers waiting for check-in is 32 and if we assume that the check-in rate is constant throughout the day, then the average passenger had to wait in line for 3.6 minutes.
