Answer:

Direct Variation. Since k is constant we can find k when given any point by dividing the y-coordinate by the x-coordinate.

Disks of polycarbonate plastic from a supplier are analyzed for scratch and shock resistance. The results from 100 disks are sum

s344n2d4d5 [400]

The contingency tables serve to record the frequencies with which an object appears according to the measured variables, in this case two variables, each with two scales, the scratch resistance and the shock resistance, both measured as high and low.

The information is organized in such a way that the value of each box represents the total number of objects that meet the characteristics measured for each variable, for example in this case we have 70 discs with high shock resistance and high scratch resistance, 9 with high scratch resistance and low shock resistance, 16 with high shock resistance and low scratch resistance and finally 5 discs with low scratch and shock resistance.

We complete the table like this to obtain other total values:

$\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\qquad\text{Shock resistance}\\\text{Scratch resistence}\left[\begin{array}{cccc}&\text{high}&\text{low}&\text{total}\\\text{high}&70&9&79\\\text{low}&16&5&21\\\text{total}&86&14&100\end{array}\right]$

With this information, and taking into account that the values presented are frequencies, to obtain the probability, each one must be divided into the total number of objects and multiply by 100, for this case as 100 objects, the frequency is the same percentage or probability .

Answer

a) The probability that, when selecting a random disk, its scratch resistance is high and its shock resistance is high is 70%, since this is the value that corresponds to the intersection of both variables in the table.

b) the probability that, when selecting a random disk, its resistance to scratches is high or that its resistance to impacts is high is 95% because the probability that its resistance to scratches is high is 79 % and the probability that its impact resistance is high is 86%, as one or the other requests, this is the sum of both minus the intersection, that is 79% + 86% -70% = 95%

c) the two events described are not mutually exclusive, that is, they cannot pass through, since the table informs us that of the analyzed discs 70, these two characteristics possessed, high shock resistance and high scratch resistance

What is the equation of the line perpendicular to 3x+y= -8that passes through -3,1? Write your answer in slope-intercept form. S

Gekata [30.6K]

Slope intercept form of a line perpendicular to 3x + y = -8, and passing through (-3,1) is $y=\frac{1}{3} x+2$

Solution:

Need to write equation of line perpendicular to 3x+y = -8 and passes through the point (-3,1).

Generic slope intercept form of a line is given by y = mx + c

where m = slope of the line.

Let's first find slope intercept form of 3x + y = -8

3x + y = -8

=> y = -3x - 8

On comparing above slope intercept form of given equation with generic slope intercept form y = mx + c , we can say that for line 3x + y = -8 , slope m = -3

And as the line passing through (-3,1) and is perpendicular to 3x + y = -8, product of slopes of two line will be -1 as lies are perpendicular.

Let required slope = x

$\begin{array}{l}{=x \times-3=-1} \\\\ {=>x=\frac{-1}{-3}=\frac{1}{3}}\end{array}$

So we need to find the equation of a line whose slope is $\frac{1}{3}$ and passing through (-3,1)

Equation of line passing through $(x_1 , y_1)$ and having lope of m is given by

$\left(y-y_{1}\right)=\mathrm{m}\left(x-x_{1}\right)$

$\text { In our case } x_{1}=-3 \text { and } y_{1}=1 \text { and } \mathrm{m}=\frac{1}{3}$

Substituting the values we get,

$\begin{array}{l}{(\mathrm{y}-1)=\frac{1}{3}(\mathrm{x}-(-3))} \\\\ {=>\mathrm{y}-1=\frac{1}{3} \mathrm{x}+1} \\\\ {=>\mathrm{y}=\frac{1}{3} \mathrm{x}+2}\end{array}$

Hence the required equation of line is found using slope intercept form
