Answer:

Slope: - 3/4

y - intercept: 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi,

In the form y = mx + b

m = slope

b = y - intercept

So...

y = -3/4x + 8

m = -3/4

b = 8

Your slope is -3/4 and your y - intercept is 8.

I hope this helps :)

Answer:

$slope = - \frac{3}{4} \\ y - intercept = 8$

If we sample from a small finite population without replacement, the binomial distribution should not be used because the event

seropon [69]

Answer:

5/4324 = 0.001156337

Step-by-step explanation:

To better understand the hyper-geometric distribution consider the following example:

There are 100 senators in the US Congress, and suppose 60 of them are republicans so 100 - 60 = 40 are democrats).

We extract a random sample of 30 senators and we want to answer this question:

What is the probability that 10 senators in the sample are republicans (and of course, 30 - 10 = 20 democrats)?

The answer using the h-g distribution is:

$\large \frac{\binom{60}{10}\binom{100-60}{30-10}}{\binom{100}{30}}=\frac{\binom{60}{10}\binom{40}{20}}{\binom{100}{30}}$

Now, imagine there are 56 senators (56 lottery numbers), 6 are republicans (6 winning numbers and 50 losers), we extract a sample of 6 senators (the bettor selects 6 numbers). What is the probability that 4 senators are republicans? (What is the probability that 4 numbers are winners?).

<em>As we see, the situation is exactly the same,</em> but changing the numbers. So the answer would be

$\large \frac{\binom{6}{4}\binom{56-6}{6-4}}{\binom{56}{6}}=\frac{\binom{6}{4}\binom{50}{2}}{\binom{56}{6}}$

Now compute each combination separately:

$\large \binom{6}{4}=\frac{6!}{4!2!}=15\\\\\binom{50}{2}=\frac{50!}{2!48!}=1225\\\\\binom{50}{6}=\frac{50!}{6!44!}=15890700$

and now replace the values:

$\large \frac{\binom{6}{4}\binom{50}{2}}{\binom{56}{6}}=\frac{15*1225}{15890700}=\frac{18375}{15890700}=\frac{5}{4324}$

and that is it.

If the decimal expression is preferred then divide the fractions to get 0.001156337

Point T has coordinates (10,20). To calculate the coordinates of point T′ in the image,

Hatshy [7]

Answer: $T'(18,36)$

Step-by-step explanation:

For this exercise it is important to know the definition of "Dilation".

A Dilation is defined as a transformation in which the Image (The figure obtained after the transformation) and the Pre-Image (The original figure before the transformation) have the same shape but have different sizes.

If the Dilation is centered at the origin, and knowing the scale factor of $\frac{9}{5}$ , you need to multiply each coordinate of the point T by the scale factor in order to find the coordinates of the Image T'.
