Answer:

Following equations represents a linear function:

y = 6x

y = 4x - √2

x – 4y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that a linear function is of the form

where m is the rate of change or slope and b is the y-intercept.

Please note that y = mx+b represents a straight line because the degree of a linear function is always 1.

Now, let us check whether the given functions represent the linear functions or not.

Checking y = 6x

y = 6x

Silk scarves are produced in a factory. Quality control investigations find that 0.5% of the scarves produced have flaws, which

Goshia [24]

The binomial probability is determined by the formula

$\begin{gathered} P_x=\binom{n}{x}p^xq^{n-x} \\ \text{where} \\ P\text{ is the binomial probability} \\ x\text{ is the number of times for a specific outcome within }n\text{ trials} \\ p\text{ is the probability of success on a single trial} \\ q\text{ is the probability of failure on a single trial} \\ n\text{ is the number of trials} \end{gathered}$

Here, we will assume that finding the flaw is the "success" of the trial hence the following given

$\begin{gathered} p=0.05 \\ q=0.95 \\ n=30 \end{gathered}$

Finding the probability of one flawed scarf

$\begin{gathered} P(X=1)=\binom{30}{1}(0.05)^1(0.95)^{30-1} \\ P(X=1)=0.3389 \end{gathered}$

Finding the probability of no flawed scarves

$\begin{gathered} P(X=0)=\binom{30}{0}(0.05)^0(0.95)^{30-0} \\ P(X=0)=0.2146 \end{gathered}$

Finding the probability of more then three flawed scarves

$\begin{gathered} P(X>3)=1-P(X\le3) \\ P(X>3)=1-0.93922843869 \\ P(X>3)=0.0608 \end{gathered}$

if 10 800 cm2 of material is available to make a box with a square base and an open top find the largest possible volume of the

lubasha [3.4K]

Let

x--------> the length side of the square base of the box

y-------> the height of the box

we know that

The surface area of the box is equal to

$SA=4xy+x^{2}$

$SA=10,800\ cm^{2}$

so

$10,800=4xy+x^{2}$

$y=(10,800-x^{2})/(4x)$

$y=(2,700-0.25x^{2})/(x)$ --------> equation A

the volume of the box is equal to

$V=x^{2}y$ --------> equation B

Substitute the equation A in the equation B

$V=x^{2}*(2,700-0.25x^{2})/(x)$

$V=x*(2,700-0.25x^{2})$

$V=(2,700x-0.25x^{3})$

using a graphing tool

see the attached figure

For $x=60\ cm$

$Volume=108,000\ cm^{3}$

the point $(60,108,000)$ is a maximum of the function

<u>Find the dimensions of the box </u>

$x=60\ cm$

Find the value of y

$V=x^{2}y$

$y=V/x^{2}$

$y=108,000/60^{2}$

$y=30\ cm$

<u>The dimensions of the box are</u>

$60\ cm*60\ cm*30\ cm$

<u>The largest possible volume of the box is</u>

$108,000\ cm^{3}$

Jordan got 27 out of 90 correct on his test . What fraction of the marks did her get correct

Rudik [331]

He got 30% correct. To get this answer, you would divide 27 ÷ 90 and get 0.3. Then you would convert 0.3 into fraction form, which is 30%.
