Answer:

y = 17x - 55

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert the coordinates in point-slope form:

y + 4 = 17(x -3)

y + 4 = 17x - 51

Subtract 4 in both sides:

y = 17x - 55

Thanks!

If a single fair die is rolled find the probability of a 3 given that the number rolled is odd

STALIN [3.7K]

Given that the number rolled is odd, it can be 1, 3, or 5 = 3 possibilities.

Only one of the possibilities is success . . . rolling a 3 .

So the probability of success is 1/3 = 33 and 1/3 percent .

Occasionally an airline will lose a bag. Suppose a small airline has found it can reasonably model the number of bags lost each

julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

a) The probability that the airline will lose no bags next monday is 0.1108

b) The probability that the airline will lose 0,1, or 2 bags next Monday is 0.6227

c) I would recommend taking a Poisson model with mean 4.4 instead of a Poisson model with mean 2.2

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability mass function of X, for which we denote the amount of bags lost next monday is given by this formula

$P(X=k) = \frac{e^{-2.2} * {2.2}^k }{k!}$

$P(X=0) = \frac{e^{-2.2} * {2.2}^0 }{0!} = 0.1108$

The probability that the airline will lose no bags next monday is 0.1108.

b) Note that $P(X \in \{0,1,2\} = P(X=0) + P(X=1) + P(X=2)$ . And

$P(X=0)+P(X=1)+P(X=2) = e^{-2.2} * (1 + 2.2 + 2.2^2/2) = 0.6227$

Therefore, the probability that the airline will lose 0,1, or 2 bags next Monday is 0.6227.

c) If the double of flights are taken, then you at least should expect to loose a similar proportion in bags, because you will have more chances for a bag to be lost. WIth this in mind, we can correctly think that the average amount of bags that will be lost each day will double. Thus, i would double the mean of the Poisson model, in other words, i would take a Poisson model with mean 4.4, instead of 2.2.

Work out the height of a parallelogram with base of 6cm and area of 27cm²

professor190 [17]

To find the height of the parallelogram you would divide 6 from the area, 27, to get the answer 4.5,
So h=4.5

The base change property can help in what type of scenarios? HELP ME!!!!!

Mekhanik [1.2K]

<h3>Base Change Property</h3><h3 />

The Base Change Property is very helpful in scenarios related to simplifying equations where the logarithmic terms have a varying base.

So to solve an equation, which possesses logarithmic functions, all logarithmic terms must have a similar base.

<h3>What is Base Change Property?</h3><h3 />

This refers to the base formula which is used to write a logarithm of a number with a base that is fixed as the ratio of two logarithms both having the same base but different from the base of the initial or original logarithm.

Change of Base Formula is given as:

$log_{b} a = \frac{Log_{c} a }{Log_{c} b}$
