Answer:

y = -5x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the equation of a line parallel to the given line is,

y - y' = m(x - x')

Where m = slope of the line

And line passes through (x', y')

Equation of a line has been given as,

5x + y = 4

y = -5x + 4

Slope of this line = -5

By the property of parallel lines "slope of the parallel lines are same",

m = -5

Parallel line passing through (-1, 4) and slope 'm' = -5 will be,

y - 4 = -5(x + 1)

y - 4 = -5x - 5

y = -5x - 5 + 4

y = -5x - 1

Therefore, equation of the parallel line will be,

y = -5x - 1

Answer:

340

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is finding the percentage of those who fail within 19 months.

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

$\mu = 18.2, \sigma = 1.7$

The proportion is the pvalue of Z when X = 19. So

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{19 - 18.2}{1.7}$

$Z = 0.47$

$Z = 0.47$ has a pvalue of 0.6808.

Jolt is expected to replace 0.6808 of the connectors sold. Out of 500, that is, on average, 0.6808*500 = 340.

Jolt expects to replace, on average, 340 of the connectors sold.
