Answer:
0.995 P(at least 2) = 1 – P(X = 0) – P(X=1)
1 – 15C0 * 0.40 *0.615- 15C1*0.41*0.614
1 – 0.0000 – 0.005
= 0.995
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this, we must first put both lines in Slope Intercept Form (y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept).
y=3x-5 is already in SIF, so we only need to work on the other one.
x+3y=6
-x -x
3y=-x+6
/3 /3
y=-1/3x+2
Now we have both equations in slope intercept form, so we can start graphing from the y-intercepts and just follow the slopes.
When we do this, we will see that the lines meet at an exactly 90° angle. When a pair of lines does this, it means they are perpendicular.
Below I have attached an image that has both lines graphed so that you may visualize it. The green dots show the slopes, while the highlighted areas show the y-intercepts. Note that the lines intersect at a 90° angle, making them perpendicular.
In the first grid more squares are shaded than in the 2nd grid.
Choices A, C, D have a y-value that is 5 more than the x-value, so those points are on the line defined by the first equation.
Choice D satisfies the requirement
... y = 2x - 13
... 23 = 2·18 - 13
... 23 = 36 - 13
The appropriate choice is ...
... D (18, 23)
