Answer:

Option B. $y+5=-\frac{9}{5}(x-3)$

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the slope m

we have the points

$(3, -5)\ and\ (-7, 13)$

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

$m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

substitute the values

$m=\frac{13+5}{-7-3}$

$m=\frac{18}{-10}$

Simplify

$m=-\frac{9}{5}$

step 2

Find the equation of the line in point slope form

we know that

The linear equation in point slope form is equal to

$y-y1=m(x-x1)$

we have

$m=-\frac{9}{5}$

$(x1,y1)=(3,-5)$

substitute

$y-(-5)=-\frac{9}{5}(x-3)$

$y+5=-\frac{9}{5}(x-3)$

Resistors are labeled 100 Ω. In fact, the actual resistances are uniformly distributed on the interval (95, 103). Find the mean

Zinaida [17]

Answer:

$E[R]$ = 99 Ω

$\sigma_R$ = 2.3094 Ω

P(98<R<102) = 0.5696

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean resistance is the average of edge values of interval.

Hence,

The mean resistance, $E[R] = \frac{a+b}{2} = \frac{95+103}{2} = \frac{198}{2}$ = 99 Ω

To find the standard deviation of resistance, we need to find variance first.

$V(R) = \frac{(b-a)^2}{12} =\frac{(103-95)^2}{12} = 5.333$

Hence,

The standard deviation of resistance, $\sigma_R = \sqrt{V(R)} = \sqrt5.333$ = 2.3094 Ω

To calculate the probability that resistance is between 98 Ω and 102 Ω, we need to find Normal Distributions.

$z_1 = \frac{102-99}{2.3094} = 1.299$

$z_2 = \frac{98-99}{2.3094} = -0.433$

From the Z-table, P(98<R<102) = 0.9032 - 0.3336 = 0.5696

That is an annuity and use the attached formula.

Total = 300 * 1.8020924036 -1 /.055 -300
Total = 300 * .8020924036 / .055 - 300
Total = 300 * 14.5834982473 -300
Total = 4375.0494741818 -300
