Answer:

the answer is No

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the first line has a slope of -4/7 and the other line has a slope of -1/7. This can be shown in point slope form y-y1=m(x-x1) where m=∆y/∆x.

Through points P and Q, the point slope is represented as -1-(-5)=m(-5-2) ; 4 = -7m ; m = 4/-7. The next two points R and S can be shown in point slope as 5-4=m(-2-5) ; 1 = -7m ; m =1/-7. With the fact that parallel lines must have equal slopes, these two lines cannot be parallel because -4/7≠-1/7

A random sample has been selected from a population. The point estimate = 78.65 and margin of error E = 8.24 for a 90% confidenc
fiasKO [112]

Answer:

90% confidence interval: (70.41,86.89)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Point estimate = 78.65

Margin of error, E = 8.24

Confidence level = 90%

Significance level = 10%

Formula:

\text{Point estimate} \pm \text{Margin of error}

Putting the values, we get,

z_{critical}\text{ at}~\alpha_{0.10} = \pm 1.64

78.65 \pm 8.24 = (70.41,86.89)

(70.41,86.89) is the required 90% confidence interval.

They make 33.3333% of free throws, so if they attempted 12, they would make 4 because 1/3 x 12 = 4.

Explain how to draw a tree diagram of outcomes for this situation: Julie went to visit her aunt and uncle for the weekend. She t
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

A <u>tree diagram</u> shows all possible outcomes of two or more events.

Each branch is a possible outcome and can be labelled with a probability.

<u>Step 1</u>:  Draw lines (branches) to represent the first set of options (slacks). Write the outcomes on the ends of the branches (brown and black).

<u>Step 2</u>:  Draw the next set of branches to represent the second set of options (sweaters).  Write the outcomes on the ends of the branches (tan, red and white).

<u>Step 3</u>:  Draw the final set of branches to represent the last set of options (shirts).  Write the outcomes on the ends of the branches (white and gray).

We assume that the events in this scenario are <u>independent</u> so the probability of the first event happening has no impact on the probability of the second event or the third event happening.  Therefore, the probabilities are:

  • P(brown slacks) = 1/2
  • P(black slacks) = 1/2
  • P(tan sweater) = 1/3
  • P(red sweater) = 1/3
  • P(white sweater) = 1/3
  • P(white shirt) = 1/2
  • P(gray shirt) = 1/2

Write these on the branches.
