Answer:

Slope: 2

y = 2x + 50

Step-by-Step Solution:

Slope: rise/run = 40/20 = 4/2 = 2

y = mx + b

m= slope = 2

b= y-intercept = 50

y = 2x + 50

The x - intercept of 5x - 3y = 15 is (3, 0)

The y -intercept of 5x - 3y = 15 is (0, -5)

<h3>Solution:</h3>

Given equation is 5x - 3y = 15

To find: x - intercept and y -intercept

The x intercept is the point where the line crosses the x axis. At this point y = 0

The y intercept is the point where the line crosses the y axis. At this point x = 0.

Finding x - intercept:

To find the x intercept using the equation of the line, plug in 0 for the y variable and solve for x

So put y = 0 in given equation

5x - 3(0) = 15

5x = 15

x = 3

So the x - intercept is (3, 0)

Finding y - intercept:

To find the y intercept using the equation of the line, plug in 0 for the x variable and solve for y

So put x = 0 in given equation

5(0) - 3y = 15

-3y = 15

y = -5

So the y - intercept is (0, -5)

Can sombody please help me with this math problem?

Molodets [167]

y=2/3y-3

1. y = 2/3 (9)-3 multiply 9 and 2 =18/3

y=18/3-3 divide 18 and 3 =6

y=6-3 subt. 3

y=3

2. -11=2/3x - 3

-11+3 = 2/3 x add 3 to both sides to cancel -3

-8=2/3 x

(3/2)-8 = (2/3)3/2 x multiply both sides by reciprical of 2/3

-24/2 = x divide

-12=x

Kelly has 4 times as many songs on her music player as Lou. Tiffany has 6 times as many songs on her

Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

113

Step-by-step explanation:

we need to know how much Lou has first !

so we have to do 682 / 6 which = 113

then 113 / 4 = 28.2

28.2 is how much Lou has

so we will go back and multiply the 4

28.2 x 4 =113

f) The life of a power transmission tower is exponentially distributed, with mean life 25 years. If three towers, operated indep

Step2247 [10]

Answer:

15.24% probability that at least 2 will still stand after 35 years

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the binomial distribution and the exponential distribution.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

Exponential distribution:

The exponential probability distribution, with mean m, is described by the following equation:

$f(x) = \mu e^{-\mu x}$

In which $\mu = \frac{1}{m}$ is the decay parameter.

The probability that x is lower or equal to a is given by:

$P(X \leq x) = \int\limits^a_0 {f(x)} \, dx$

Which has the following solution:

$P(X \leq x) = 1 - e^{-\mu x}$

The probability of finding a value higher than x is:

$P(X > x) = 1 - P(X \leq x) = 1 - (1 - e^{-\mu x}) = e^{-\mu x}$

Probability of a single tower being standing after 35 years:

Single tower, so exponential.

Mean of 25 years, so $m = 25, \mu = \frac{1}{25} = 0.04$

We have to find $P(X > 35)$

$P(X > 35) = 1 - P(X \leq x) = 1 - (1 - e^{-\mu x}) = e^{-0.04*35} = 0.2466$

What is the probability that at least 2 will still stand after 35 years?

Now binomial.

Each tower has a 0.2466 probability of being standing after 35 years, so $p = 0.2466$

3 towers, so $n = 3$

We have to find:

$P(X \geq 2) = P(X = 2) + P(X = 3)$

In which

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 2) = C_{3,2}.(0.2466)^{2}.(0.7534)^{1} = 0.1374$

$P(X = 3) = C_{3,3}.(0.2466)^{3}.(0.7534)^{0} = 0.0150$

$P(X \geq 2) = P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) = 0.1374 + 0.0150 = 0.1524$

15.24% probability that at least 2 will still stand after 35 years

8 x - 4 (5 - x) = -44

Sphinxa [80]

8 x - 4 (5 - x) = -44

mutiply the bracket by -4

(-4)(5) = -20

(-4)(-x)= 4x

8x-20+4x= -44

8x+4x-20= -44 ( combine like terms )

12x-20= -44

move -20 to the other side

sign changes from -20 to +20

12x-20+20= -44+20

12x= -44+20

12x= -24

divide both sides by 12

12x/12= -24/12

Answer: x= -2
