Answer:

y = 1/3x + 4 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

2x - 6y = 12

First find the slope

Solve for y

Subtract 2x

2x - 6y -2x= 12-2x

-6y = -2x+12

Divide by -6

-6y/-6 =-2x/-6 +12/-6

y = 1/3 x -2

The slope is 1/3

Parallel lines have the same slope

Using the slope intercept form y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y = 1/3x +b

And substituting in the point

4 = 1/3 (-1) +b

4 = -1/3 +b

Add 1/3 to each side

4 + 1/3 = b

y = 1/3x + 4 1/3

(1 point) A random sample of 600 movie goers in Flagstaff found 252 movie goers who had bought popcorn on their last visit. Find

garik1379 [7]

Answer-

A 95% confidence interval for the true percent of movie goers is 36.41% to 44.25%

Solution-

Given,

n = 600 (sample size)

x = 252 (number of people who bought)

Confidence interval = 95%, so z = 1.96

We know that,

$\mu = M\pm Z(SE)$

where,

M = sample mean

Z = Z statistic determined by confidence level

SE = standard error of mean

Calculating the values,

$M=\frac{x}{n} =\frac{242}{600} =0.4033$

$Z=1.96$ from the tables

$SE=\sqrt{\frac{M\times (1-M)}{n}}$

$\Rightarrow SE=\sqrt{\frac{0.4033\times (1-0.4033)}{600}}=0.02$

Putting all the values in the formula,

$\mu = M\pm Z(SE)$

$\mu = 0.4033\pm 1.96(0.02)$

$=0.4033\pm 0.0392$

$=0.4425, 0.3641$

$= 44.25\%,36.41\%$

Set up, but do not evaluate, the integral that represents the length of the curve given by

netineya [11]

Answer:

L = ∫₀²ᵖⁱ √((1 − sin t)² + (1 − cos t)²) dt

Step-by-step explanation:

Arc length of a parametric curve is:

L = ∫ₐᵇ √((dx/dt)² + (dy/dt)²) dt

x = t + cos t, dx/dt = 1 − sin t

y = t − sin t, dy/dt = 1 − cos t

L = ∫₀²ᵖⁱ √((1 − sin t)² + (1 − cos t)²) dt

Or, if you wish to simplify:

L = ∫₀²ᵖⁱ √(1 − 2 sin t + sin²t + 1 − 2 cos t + cos²t) dt

L = ∫₀²ᵖⁱ √(3 − 2 sin t − 2 cos t) dt
