Answer:

4/-3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope

y2 - y1 / x2 - x1 =

12 - -4          16

---------- =     ----

1 - 13           -12

Simplify by dividing both parts by 4

4/-3 is your slope :)

Piper is driving on a long road trip. She currently has 11 gallons of gas in her car. Each hour that she drives, her car uses up
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

begins the trip with 14 gallons of gas in her car.

The car uses up one gallon of gas every 30 miles.

Let g represent the number of gallons of gas she has left in her tank, and let d

represent the total distance

Step-by-step explanation:d = 30(14 - g)

:

For example, if she uses two gallons, there will be 12 gal left in the tank; g=12

d = 30(14 - 12)

d = 30(2)

d = 60 mi  Here you go

Which measure of central tendency best describes this situation: the numbers of apples in 2-lb bags?
katrin [286]

Which measure of central tendency best describes this situation:

The number of apples in 2-lb bags?

Solution: The best measure of central tendency to describe the numbers of apples in 2-lb bags is mean. Because the variable under consideration is numeric and probably we would not see outliers in 2-lb bags.

Mean is the defined as the sum of observations divided by the number of observation. The mean takes into account all the observation of the data. Mean is most preferable when the data is numeric and there are no outliers in the data.

Therefore, in the given situation, where we have number of apples in 2-lb bags, the mean will be best to use.

I WILL AWARD BRAINLIEST!! PLEASE HELP!!
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

A(...; 7)

x =-1/5

B(8; ...)

y = 48

The slope is 5

Step-by-step explanation:

y−5x=8

A(...; 7)

We know that y=7, we need to find x

7 - 5x = 8

Subtract 7 from each side

7-7 -5x = 8-7

-5x =1

Divide by -5

-5x/-5 = 1/-5

x =-1/5

B(8; ...)

We know x = 8 we need to find y

y−5x=8

y - 5(8) = 8

y - 40 =8

Add 40 to each side

y-40+40 = 8+40

y = 48

Now we need to find the slope

y - 5x =8

Add 5x to each side

y -5x+5x = 5x+8

y = 5x+8

This is in the form y = mx+b  where m is the slope

The slope is 5

Lie detectors have a 15% chance of concluding that a person is lying even when they are telling the truth. a bank conducts inter
Otrada [13]
Part A:

Given that lie <span>detectors have a 15% chance of concluding that a person is lying even when they are telling the truth. Thus, lie detectors have a 85% chance of concluding that a person is telling the truth when they are indeed telling the truth.

The case that the lie detector correctly determined that a selected person is saying the truth has a probability of 0.85
Thus p = 0.85

Thus, the probability that </span>the lie detector will conclude that all 15 are telling the truth if <span>all 15 applicants tell the truth is given by:

</span>P(X)={ ^nC_xp^xq^{n-x}} \\  \\ \Rightarrow P(15)={ ^{15}C_{15}(0.85)^{15}(0.15)^0} \\  \\ =1\times0.0874\times1=0.0874
<span>

</span>Part B:

Given that lie detectors have a 15% chance of concluding that a person is lying even when they are telling the truth. Thus, lie detectors have a 85% chance of concluding that a person is telling the truth when they are indeed telling the truth.

The case that the lie detector wrongly determined that a selected person is lying when the person is actually saying the truth has a probability of 0.25
Thus p = 0.15

Thus, the probability that the lie detector will conclude that at least 1 is lying if all 15 applicants tell the truth is given by:

P(X)={ ^nC_xp^xq^{n-x}} \\ \\ \Rightarrow P(X\geq1)=1-P(0) \\  \\ =1-{ ^{15}C_0(0.15)^0(0.85)^{15}} \\ \\ =1-1\times1\times0.0874=1-0.0874 \\  \\ =0.9126


Part C:

Given that lie detectors have a 15% chance of concluding that a person is lying even when they are telling the truth. Thus, lie detectors have a 85% chance of concluding that a person is telling the truth when they are indeed telling the truth.

The case that the lie detector wrongly determined that a selected person is lying when the person is actually saying the truth has a probability of 0.15
Thus p = 0.15

The mean is given by:

\mu=npq \\  \\ =15\times0.15\times0.85 \\  \\ =1.9125


Part D:

Given that lie detectors have a 15% chance of concluding that a person is lying even when they are telling the truth. Thus, lie detectors have a 85% chance of concluding that a person is telling the truth when they are indeed telling the truth.

The case that the lie detector wrongly determined that a selected person is lying when the person is actually saying the truth has a probability of 0.15
Thus p = 0.15

The <span>probability that the number of truthful applicants classified as liars is greater than the mean is given by:

</span>P(X\ \textgreater \ \mu)=P(X\ \textgreater \ 1.9125) \\  \\ 1-[P(0)+P(1)]
<span>
</span>P(1)={ ^{15}C_1(0.15)^1(0.85)^{14}} \\  \\ =15\times0.15\times0.1028=0.2312<span>
</span>
