Answer:
y = -3x + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Perpendicular slope: -3
y -(-3)= -3(x-2)
y+3= -3x + 6
y = -3x + 3
The bottom answer is correct. I had some trouble with this so I had to find x and y in separate parts.
TO FIND X
notice that the top triangle and bottom triangles are similar, meaning if you multiple all three sides of one by a specific number, it becomes the same size as the bottom triangle.
17 x n = 8, therefore n=8/17
8 x n = X, therefore X=64/17
For some reason, this does not give a correct value for Y, so I had to use trig
TO FIND Y
Notice that the angle DAB is the same as DBC (lets call this angle Ø)
Using trig rule, we know that the cos of an angle is equal to the adjacent side divided by the hypotenuses.
We can now form some equations:
cosØ = 15/17 (from the top triangle)
cosØ = 8/Y (from bottom triangle)
Now we know that Y=(8x17)/15 = 136/15
X=64/15 Y=136/15
Answer:
a. p = the population proportion of UF students who would support making the Tuesday before Thanksgiving break a holiday.
Step-by-step explanation:
For each student, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they are in favor of making the Tuesday before Thanksgiving a holiday, or they are against. This means that we can solve this problem using concepts of the binomial probability distribution.
Binomial probability distribution
The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.
![P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=P%28X%20%3D%20x%29%20%3D%20C_%7Bn%2Cx%7D.p%5E%7Bx%7D.%281-p%29%5E%7Bn-x%7D)
In which
is the number of different combinatios of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.
![C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=C_%7Bn%2Cx%7D%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7Bn%21%7D%7Bx%21%28n-x%29%21%7D)
And p is the probability of X happening.
So, the binomial probability distribution has two parameters, n and p.
In this problem, we have that
and
. So the parameter is
a. p = the population proportion of UF students who would support making the Tuesday before Thanksgiving break a holiday.
True because<span> the common factor to both numbers would be an even number.
