Hi I also need help with this please and thank you
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y=mx+b where m=slope and b=y intercept

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(-2-4)/(2+1)

m=-2 so far we have the slope

y=-2x+b, using point (2,-2) we can solve for b, the y intercept

-2=-2(2)+b

-2=-4+b

2=b so we have our line

y=-2x+2, slope is -2 and y intercept is 2

There are 20 machines in a factory. 7 of the machines are defective.
adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

0.1225

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Number of Machines = 20

Defective Machines = 7

Required

Probability that two selected (with replacement) are defective.

The first step is to define an event that a machine will be defective.

Let M represent the selected machine sis defective.

P(M) = 7/20

Provided that the two selected machines are replaced;

The probability is calculated as thus

P(Both) = P(First Defect) * P(Second Defect)

From tge question, we understand that each selection is replaced before another selection is made.

This means that the probability of first selection and the probability of second selection are independent.

And as such;

P(First Defect) = P (Second Defect) = P(M) = 7/20

So;

P(Both) = P(First Defect) * P(Second Defect)

PBoth) = 7/20 * 7/20

P(Both) = 49/400

P(Both) = 0.1225

Hence, the probability that both choices will be defective machines is 0.1225

Suppose that the height (in centimeters) of a candle is a linear function of the amount of time (in hours) it has been burning.
Alborosie
Assume that the rule connecting height of the candle to time is a linear one.  If you do, then we have to find the equation of this line, and then use this equation to predict the height of the candle after 11 hours.

Two points on this line are (6,17.4) and (23, 7.2).  The slope is thus
         7.2-17.4           -6
m = ---------------  =  -----------  or   -3/5.
           23-6                 10

Find the equation of the line.  I'm going to use the slope-intercept formula:

y = mx + b  =>   7.2 = (-3/5)(23) + b.  Solving for b,   b = 21.

Now    we know that y = (-3/5)x + 21

Let x=11 to predict the height of the candle at that time.

y = (-3/5)(11) + 21 = 14.4 inches  (answer)
