A system of equations is given below. y = negative 2 x + one-fourth and y = negative 2 x minus one-fourth Which of the following

statements best describes the two lines? They have the same slope but different y-intercepts, so they have no solution. They have the same slope but different y-intercepts, so they have one solution. They have different slopes but the same y-intercept, so they have no solution. They have different slopes but the same y-intercept, so they have one solution.

Answer:

  They have the same slope but different y-intercepts, so they have no solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is the coefficient of x. In both cases, it is -2, so the lines have the same slope. (This eliminates the last two answer choices.)

The added constants are different for the two lines, so they have different y-intercepts. This means the lines are parallel and do not intersect.

A "solution" to the system of equations is a point (x, y) that satisfies both equations. Since the lines have no points in common, there are no solutions. (matches the first answer choice)

a slitter assembly contains 48 blades five blades are selected at random and evaluated each day for sharpness if any dull blade
son4ous [18]

Answer:

P(at least 1 dull blade)=0.7068

Step-by-step explanation:

I hope this helps.

This is what it's called dependent event probability, with the added condition that at least 1 out of 5 blades picked is dull, because from your selection of 5, you only need one defective to decide on replacing all.

So if you look at this from another perspective, you have only one event that makes it so you don't change the blades: that 5 out 5 blades picked are sharp. You also know that the probability of changing the blades plus the probability of not changing them is equal to 100%, because that involves all the events possible.

P(at least 1 dull blade out of 5)+Probability(no dull blades out of 5)=1

P(at least 1 dull blade)=1-P(no dull blades)

But the event of picking one blade is dependent of the previous picking, meaning there is no chance of picking the same blade twice.

So you have 38/48 on getting a sharp one on your first pick, then 37/47 (since you remove 1 sharp from the possibilities, and 1 from the whole lot), and so on.

Also since are consecutive events, you need to multiply the events.

The probability that the assembly is replaced the first day is:

P(at least 1 dull blade)=1-P(no dull blades)

P(at least 1 dull blade)=1-(\frac{38}{48}* \frac{37}{47} *\frac{36}{46}*\frac{35}{45}*\frac{34}{44})

P(at least 1 dull blade)=1-0.2931

P(at least 1 dull blade)=0.7068

The measures of the angles of a triangle are shown in the figure below. solve for x
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

67 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

All angles in a triangle add up to 180 degrees. So...

23 + x + 90 = 180

113 + x = 180

x = 67 degrees
