You are given a line that has a slope of 4 and passed through the point (3/8, 1/2). Which statements about the question of the l

alexgriva [62]

Answer:

Statement 1, 2 and 4 are true where as statement 3 is not true.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Statement 1: The y-intercept is -1</u>

<em>Point (3/8, 1/2)</em>

<em>Slope = m = 4</em>

<em>y = mx + c</em>

<em>1/2 = 4(3/8) + c</em>

<em>1/2 = 3/2 + c</em>

<em>1/2 = 3/2 + 2c/2</em>

<em>-2 = 2c</em>

<em>c = -1 </em>

This statement is true as the y-intercept is -1.

<u>Statement 2: The slope intercept equation is y= 4x - 1</u>

<em>slope = m = 4</em>

<em>y-intercept = c = -1</em>

<em>y = mx + c</em>

<em>y = 4x - 1</em>

This statement is true as the slope intercept equation is y= 4x -1

<u>Statement 3: The point slope equation is y - 3/8 = 4 (x - 1/2)</u>

<em>Point slope equation: y - y1 = m (x - x1)</em>

<em>Points: (x, y) (3/8, 1/2)</em>

<em>y1 = 1/2</em>

<em>x1 = 3/8</em>

<em>Slope = m = 4</em>

<em>y - 1/2 = 4 (x - 3/8)</em>

This statement is not true as the slope intercept equation is y - 1/2 = 4 (x - 3/8) instead of y - 3/8 = 4 (x - 1/2).

<u>Statement 4: The point (3/8, 1/2) corresponds to (x1, y1) in the point slope form of the equation</u>

This statement is true as shown in statement 3's explanation where x1 = 3/8 and y1 = 1/2

3. Janet is flying a kite on a string that is 75m long. The kite is 62m above the ground. Estimate the distance between Janet an

konstantin123 [22]

Answer: a) It will be a right triangle with a hypotenuse of 75 and a vertical leg that is 62.
b) The length of the kite string is 75 (given in the problem). However, I believe you are looking for the distance from the spot on the ground beneath the kite to Janet. That is about 42.2 m.

To find the missing distance in the right triangle. You have to use the Pythagorean Theorem. I set it up and solve it below.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2
x^2 + 62^2 = 75^2
x^2 + 3844 = 5625
x^2 = 1781
x = 42.2 (about)

Please can someone answer this question! Worth 15 points

Westkost [7]

The statements that aer true or not or whatever

hmm, let's try te sencnarios
remember the commutative property of multiplication
ab=ba
so

what if they are both negative?
well, the negatives would cancel to leave with positive
the oposite would be both positive resulting in a positive

if they are differnt signs then result is negative
oposite would be still different signs so still negative
true statment

Lacy draws a diamond from a standard deck of 52 cards. Without replacing the first card, she then proceeds to draw a second card

Viktor [21]

Answer:

a) i) No

ii) Probability of drawing a diamond and then spade without replacement is 0.0637.

b) i) Yes

ii) Probability of drawing a diamond and then spade with replacement is 0.0625

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a) Without replacement:

i) Are these events independent?

No, because the both events are dependent. because a card taken out of the deck is not replaced back before taking out the other card so the chances of event occur change.

ii) Determine the probability of drawing a diamond and then a spade without replacement.

Probability of drawing a diamond and then spade = (Probability of drawing a diamond) * (Probability of drawing a spade)

Probability of drawing a diamond :

Total cards in deck = 52

Diamonds = 13

Probability of drawing a diamond = 13/52

Probability of drawing a spade:

Total cards in deck after taking diamond = 52 -1 =51

Spades = 13

Probability of drawing a spade = 13/51

Probability of drawing a diamond and then spade = 13/52 * 13/51

= 169/2652

=0.0637

So, Probability of drawing a diamond and then spade without replacement is 0.0637

Part b) With replacements

i) Are these events independent?

Input Yes or No:

Yes, these events are independent because a card taken out of the deck is replaced back before taking out the other card so the chances of event occur doesn't change.

ii) Determine the probability of drawing a diamond and then a spade with replacement.

Probability of drawing a diamond and then spade = (Probability of drawing a diamond) * (Probability of drawing a spade)

Probability of drawing a diamond :

Total cards in deck = 52

Diamonds = 13

Probability of drawing a diamond = 13/52

Probability of drawing a spade:

Total cards in deck after replacing diamond = 52

Spades = 13

Probability of drawing a spade = 13/52

Probability of drawing a diamond and then spade = 13/52 * 13/52

= 169/2704

=0.0625

So, Probability of drawing a diamond and then spade with replacement is 0.0625
