Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
the factor of x in the equation is the slope, which is the ratio y/x indicating how many units y changes, when x changes a certain amount of units.
going from the left point to the right point x changes by +3 units, and y changes by -1 unit.
so, the slope (and factor of x in the equation) is -1/3.
and the constant term in the equation is the y (axis) intercept of the line.
this is the y value, when x = 0 (intercepting the y axis).
and we see in the graph, when x = 0, the line goes through y = 2.
so, the equation has to be
y = -1/3 × x + 2
therefore, C is the right answer.
Answer:0.29
Step-by-step explanation:
An average of six cell phone thefts is reported in San Francisco per day. This means our mean value, u = 6
For poisson distribution,
P(x=r) = (e^-u×u^r)/r!
probability that four cell phones will be reported stolen tomorrow=
P(x=4)= (e^-6×6^4)/4!
= (0.00248×1296)/4×3×2×1
= 3.21408/24=
0.13392
P(x=5)= (e^-6×6^5)/5!
= (0.00248×7776)/5×4×3×2×1
= 19.28448/120
= 0.1607
probability that four or five cell phones will be reported stolen tomorrow
= P(x=4) + P(x=5)
= 0.13392 + 0.1607
= 0.294624
Approximately 0.29
Answer:
y = -
x + 8
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Rearrange 3x - y = 9 into this form by subtracting 3x from both sides
- y = - 3x + 9 ( divide all terms by - 1 )
y = 3x - 9 ← in slope- intercept form
with slope m = 3
Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is
= -
= -
, thus
y = -
x + c ← is the partial equation
To find c substitute (6, 6) into the partial equation
6 = - 2 + c ⇒ c = 6 + 2 = 8
y = -
x + 8 ← equation of perpendicular line
Answer:
Amount of milk in each milkshake = 7 2/3 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
Gallons of milk = 23 (given)
Number of Milkshakes = 3
Because the gallons of milk were shared equally,
Amount of milk in each milkshake = 23/3 = 7 2/3 gallons of milk
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
sum the parts of the ratio, 5 + 6 + 3 = 14 parts
Divide number of members by 14 to find the value of one part of the ratio.
560 ÷ 14 = 40 ← value of 1 part of the ratio
(i)
number of women = 6 × 40 = 240
(ii)
number of children = 3 × 40 = 120
