Put these all in slope intercept form: y=mx+b

m=slope
b=y intercept

Working out option A)
x+6y=36
6y=-x+36
y=-1/6x+6

Option B)
y=15x+5

Option C)
Is there a typo? Regardless of how I attmpeted to fix it, it had an intercept of either 3 or 4

Option D)
y=4x+7

The answer is D with the greatest y-intercept of 7.

On a factory floor, 30 out of every 140 toy robots is defective. What percent is defective?

yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

$21.43\%$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

To find out the percent of robots which are defective, divided the number of defective robots by the total number of robots and multiply the result by 100

Let

x ----> the number of defective robots

y ----> the total number of robots

p ---> percentage of robots which are defective

$p=\frac{x}{y} (100)$

we have

$x=30\\y=140$

substitute

$p=\frac{30}{140}(100)$

$p=21.43\%$

Adam put $100 in a savings account. After 10 years, he had $1649 in the account. What rate of interest did he earn? Use the form

Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: C. 28%

$A = Pe^{rt}$

$1649 = 100 \cdot e^{10r}\\16.49 = e^{10r}\\\ln{16.49} = 10r\\r = \frac{\ln{16.49}}{10} = 0.28\\$

1. Jasmine drives every morning to her office that is 12 miles from her home

Elanso [62]

Answer:

1. Her time in minutes is 720/s minutes

2. Given her time to be 20 minutes, her speed is 36 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematically,

Distance = speed * time

In this question, we want to calculate time;

So time = distance/speed

times = 12 miles/s mph = 12/s hours

Now we want our answer in minutes

Kindly recall that 60 minutes = 1 hour

So 12/s hours will be 12/s * 60 = 720/s minutes

2. Since she drives from home to the office in in 20 minutes, we want to calculate her speed in mph

From the time calculated above i.e 720/s

We can equate 20 = 720/s

20s = 720

s = 720/20

s = 36 mph

You are given 3 to 1 odds against tossing three tails with three coins, meaning you win $3 if you succeed and you lose $1 if

valentina_108 [34]

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the E(X) expected value, you come up with the different probabilities for each outcome
your set of outcomes after 3 tosses would be = {HHH, HHT, HTH, THH, HTT, THT, TTH, TTT} where H is heads and T is tails
Each element has a probability of 1/8 so let x represent number of tails
$Probability(x)=P(x)\\P(0)=\frac{1}{8} \\P(1)=\frac{3}{8} \\P(2)=\frac{3}{8} \\P(3)=\frac{1}{8}$
The E(x)=Summation (x times P(x))
$E(X)=(0)(0.125)+(1)(0.375)+(2)(0.375)+(3)(0.125)=1.5$
Now which probability is 1.5 tails? None, so it is either 2 tails or 1 tails
So you can expect to lose money in 1 game
But as you play more games the probability of getting 3 tails becomes more and more likely, so you can expect to win in a 100 games
