Answer:
Maureen ignored the negative(minus) sign in 1.7 thereby turning it into positive 1.7
Step-by-step explanation:
-1.7 + (-6.3)
Correct simplification
-1.7 + (-6.3)
Open parenthesis
= - 1.7 - 6.3
= -8
NOTE:
- * + = -
- * - = +
+ * - = -
+ * + = +
Maureen's simplification
-1.7 + (-6.3)
= 1.7 - 6.3
= -4.6
Maureen ignored the negative(minus) sign in 1.7 thereby turning it into positive 1.7
AB and AB’ are congruent
BC and B’C are congruent
All angles are congruent to the original angles
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let n be a random variable that represents the first Jonathan apple chosen at random that has bitter pit.
a) P(X = n) = q(n-1)p, where q = 1 - p.
From the information given, probability if success, p = 12.6/100 = 0.126
b) for n = 3, the probability value from the geometric probability distribution calculator is
P(n = 3) = 0.096
For n = 5, the probability value from the geometric probability distribution calculator is
P(n = 5) = 0.074
For n = 12, the probability value from the geometric probability distribution calculator is
P(n = 12) = 0.8
c) For n ≥ 5, the probability value from the geometric probability distribution calculator is
P(n ≥ 5) = 0.58
d) the expected number of apples that must be examined to find the first one with bitter pit is the mean.
Mean = 1/p
Mean = 1/0.126 = 7.9
Approximately 8 apples
Answer:y = -3x + 10
Step-by-step explanation:
To find an equation of a line that passes through two points, we have to first find the slope between the two equation. We can do this by using the slope formula:
where (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) are the two points that we are finding the slope between.
Lets make (x₁, y₁) equal to (0, 10) and (x₂, y₂) equal to (3, 1). Now we plug them into the slope formula:
So the slope between the two points is -3.
From here, I would normally take one of the points given to us and plug in the point and slope into the point-slope form of a line and then simplify until we get it in slope-intercept form. But if you look carefully, the y-intercept is given to us as the point (0, 10). So we now know that the y-intercept of the line is 10. We can now take the y-intercept and the slope and plug it into the slope-intercept form of a line to get out equation:
y = mx + b
plug in -3 for m (the slope) and 10 for b (the y-intercept)
y = -3x + 10
So now we have our equation.
I hope you find my answer and explanation helpful. Happy studying. :)
