Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

  • A(2,1)

2x-y+k=0    k=?

2*2-1+k=0

4-1+k=0

3+k=0

k=-3

  • B(5,-8)

2x-y+k=0

2*5-(-8)+k=0

10+8+k=0

18+k=0

k=-18

Answer:

  k = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

The location of P is ...

  P = (2A+B)/3 = (2·2+5, 2·1-8)/3 = (3, -2)

Putting this point into the equation for the line, we have ...

  2(3) -(-2) +k = 0

  8 +k = 0

  k = -8

The director of admissions at Kinzua University in Nova Scotia estimated the distribution of student admissions for the fall sem
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

The expected number of admissions for the fall semester is approximately 1248 students.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Number of Students:      1,060         1,400        1,540

               Probability:       0.61           0.11            0.3

Formula:

\text{Expectation} = E(x) = \sum xP(x)

Expected number of admissions for the fall semester =

E(x) = \sum xP(x)\\= (1060\times 0.61) + (1400\times 0.1) + (1540\times 0.3)\\=1248.6

Hence, the expected number of admissions for the fall semester is approximately 1,248 students.

mojhsa [17]

Answer:

0.6804

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Margie is practicing for an upcoming tennis tournament. Her first serve is good 20 out of 30 times on average.

Since each trial is independent and there are two outcomes, X no of good serves is binomial with n=6 and p =2/3

Required probability

= Prob that atleast four of 6 times good serve

=P(X\geq 4)

=P(x=4,5 or 6)\\=1-F(3)\\=0.6804

Formula used:

P(X=r) =6Cr (\frac{2}{3}^r )(\frac{1}{3}^{6-r}  )
