Answer:

y=-\frac{2}{7}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: 4y-6y+9y=-2

To find: The solution set of the equation.

Solution:

We have, 4y-6y+9y=-2 , and we need to find the solution set.

Now, we know that a solution set is any value of a variable in an equation which satisfies the equation. So, we need to find the value of variable, y in the given equation.

So, we have

4y-6y+9y=-2

\implies 13y-6y=-2

\implies 7y=-2

y=-\frac{2}{7}

Hence, the solution set of the equation is y=-\frac{2}{7}

1) Are the following lines parallel, perpendicular, or neither?
Maru [420]
In 1)

Line 1 has following coordinates.
(0,0) ; (1,-2) ; (2,-4)

Line 2 has following coordinates.
(0,0) ; (1,0.5) ; (2,1)

Line 3 has following coordinates.
(0,1) ; (1,1.5) ; (2,2)

If you'll draw the lines, you'll observe that Line 1 is perpendicular to Line 2 and Line 3 and Line 2 and Line 3 are parallel to each other.

So,
Option D will be correct.

Since the rate of descent is a constant this is a linear equation and can be expressed as:

h=vt+b, where h=feet, v=slope or rate, b=y-intercept (y value when x=0 which is the initial height)

h=-2t+b, using the point (3,67) we can solve for b, or the initial height

67=-2(3)+b

67=-6+b

73=b  so the initial height was 73 ft and the height equation is then:

h(t)=67-2t so when t=8 you have:

h(8)=67-2(8)

h(8)=67-16

h(8)=51 ft

34​% of college students say they use credit cards because of the rewards program. You randomly select 10 college students and a
finlep [7]

Answer:

a) There is a 18.73% probability that exactly two students use credit cards because of the rewards program.

b) There is a 71.62% probability that more than two students use credit cards because of the rewards program.

c) There is a 82% probability that between two and five students, inclusive, use credit cards because of the rewards program.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are only two possible outcomes. Either the student use credit cards because of the rewards program, or they use for other reason. So, we can solve this problem by the binomial distribution.

Binomial probability

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.\pi^{x}.(1-\pi)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinatios of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And \pi is the probability of X happening.

In this problem, we have that:

10 student are sampled, so n = 10

34% of college students say they use credit cards because of the rewards program, so \pi = 0.34

(a) exactly​ two

This is P(X = 2).

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.\pi^{x}.(1-\pi)^{n-x}

P(X = 2) = C_{10,2}.(0.34)^{2}.(0.66)^{8} = 0.1873

There is a 18.73% probability that exactly two students use credit cards because of the rewards program.

(b) more than​ two

This is P(X > 2).

Either a value is larger than two, or it is smaller of equal. The sum of the decimal probabilities must be 1. So:

P(X \leq 2) + P(X > 2) = 1

P(X > 2) = 1 - P(X \leq 2)

In which

P(X \leq 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)

So

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.\pi^{x}.(1-\pi)^{n-x}

P(X = 0) = C_{10,0}.(0.34)^{0}.(0.66)^{10} = 0.0157

P(X = 1) = C_{10,1}.(0.34)^{1}.(0.66)^{9} = 0.0808

P(X = 2) = C_{10,2}.(0.34)^{2}.(0.66)^{8} = 0.1873

P(X \leq 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0.0157 + 0.0808 + 0.1873 = 0.2838

P(X > 2) = 1 - P(X \leq 2) = 1 - 0.2838 = 0.7162

There is a 71.62% probability that more than two students use credit cards because of the rewards program.

(c) between two and five inclusive

This is:

P = P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5)

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.\pi^{x}.(1-\pi)^{n-x}

P(X = 2) = C_{10,2}.(0.34)^{2}.(0.66)^{8} = 0.1873

P(X = 3) = C_{10,3}.(0.34)^{3}.(0.66)^{7} = 0.2573

P(X = 4) = C_{10,4}.(0.34)^{4}.(0.66)^{6} = 0.2320

P(X = 5) = C_{10,5}.(0.34)^{5}.(0.66)^{5} = 0.1434

P = P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) = 0.1873 + 0.2573 + 0.2320 + 0.1434 = 0.82

There is a 82% probability that between two and five students, inclusive, use credit cards because of the rewards program.
