Can I get the answer for this, but please explain how to find these things out too I don’t quite get it
umka2103 [35]

Answer: y = -2/3x + 5

Step-by-step explanation: you find the slope by finding “rise/run”. the rise is -2, and the run is 3, so the slope is -2/3. the y intercept is 5

According to 2015 census data, 42.7 percent of Colorado residents were born in Colorado. If a sample of 250 Colorado residents i
stepladder [879]

Answer:

sd(X)=\sqrt{np(1-p)}=\sqrt{250*0.427*(1-0.427)}=7.82

The best option is:

B.7.82

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".  

Data given

p_C represent the real population proportion for residents born in Colorado  

\hat p_C =0.427 represent the estimated proportion for rsidents born in Colorado

n_C=250 is the sample size selected

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable of interest (number of residents in the sample), on this case we now that:  

X \sim Binom(n=250, p=0.427)  

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!}  

The expected value is given by this formula:

E(X) = np=250*0.427=106.75

And the standard deviation for the random variable is given by:

sd(X)=\sqrt{np(1-p)}=\sqrt{250*0.427*(1-0.427)}=7.82

The best option is:

B.7.82

Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

no solutions exist

Step-by-step explanation:

\sqrt{y-3} = \sqrt{y} -3 \\ y-3 = y + 9 -6\sqrt{y} \\ 6\sqrt{y} = 12 \\ \sqrt{y} = 2 \\ y = 4

verify

\sqrt{4-3} - 2 = -3 \\ 1-2 = -3 \\ -1= -3

not true, the equation is impossible

2x/x-3 - 6/x-3 . I need a step by step explanation , please
Harman [31]
When adding/subtracting fractions you need a common denominator, but you already have one, which is x-3.  So in general:

a/c-b/c=(a-b)/c so you just have:

(2x-6)/(x-3)  now if you factor 2 from the numerator

2(x-3)/(x-3)  the (x-3)s cancel out leaving

2

However!  Note that division by zero is undefined, so x cannot equal 3.  (because both original fractions had denominators of x-3)

What this all means is that that expression will equal 2 for all real values of x other than 3.
