The slope of the line below is -4 use the coordinates of the label point to find a point slope equation of the line (4,-9)

zalisa [80]

Point slope form: y1-y2=m(x1-x2)

Given the slope -4 and the set of coordinates (4,-9),

y+9=-4(x-4)

I plugged in the slope and coordinates. Since -9 came after a subtraction sign, I corrected the subtraction to addition, leaving the above point slope form equation.

I hope this helps :)

What contribution to geometry is attributed to the work of René Descartes?

tresset_1 [31]

René Descartes provided the first systematic link between Euclidean geometry and algebra.

<h3>What is Geometry?</h3>

This branch of mathematics involves the study of object shape, their spatial relationship and that of their surrounding space.

René Descartes is referred to as the father of analytic geometry due to him establishing the relationship between Euclidean geometry and algebra.

Hatshy [7]

Answer:

The expected cost is 152

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that since Y is uniformly distributed over the interval [1,5] we have the following probability density function for Y

$f_Y(y ) = \frac{1}{5-1} = \frac{1}{4}$ if $1\leq y \leq 5$ and 0 othewise. (To check this is the pdf, check the definition of an uniform random variable)

Recall that, by definition

$E(Y^k) = \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} y^kf_Y(y)dy$

Also, we are given that $C = 50+3Y+9Y^2$ . Recall the following properties of the expected value. If X,Y are random variables, then

$E(a+bX+cY) = a+bE(X)+cE(Y)$

Then, using this property we have that $E[C] = 50+3E[Y]+ 9E[Y^2]$ .

Thus, we must calculate E[Y] and E[Y^2].

Using the definition, we get that

$E[Y] = \int_{1}^{5}\frac{y}{4} dy =\frac{1}{4}\left\frac{y^2}{2}\right|_{1}^{5} = \frac{25}{8}-\frac{1}{8} = 3$

$E[Y^2] = \int_{1}^{5}\frac{y^2}{4} dy =\frac{1}{4}\left\frac{y^3}{3}\right|_{1}^{5} = \frac{125}{12}-\frac{1}{12} = \frac{31}{3}$

Then

$E(C) = 50 + 3\cdot 3 + 9 \cdot \frac{31}{3} = 152$
