Here is your answer and an explanation

Answer: y = -2/3x

Explanation:

This can be determined by calculating the gradient of the straight line, using:

m=ΔyΔx

=−6−34−(−2)

=−96

=−32

Then we use the slope-point form of the straight line:

y−y1=m(x−x1)

to give:

y−3=−32(x−(−2))

∴y−3=−32(x+2)

∴y−3=−32x−3

∴y=−32x

Use the rules of exponents to evaluate or simplify. Write without negative exponents. 1/4^-1/2 = ___ a0

Nastasia [14]

For this case we have, by definition:

$a^{-b} =\frac{1}{a ^ b}$

So, we have:

$\frac{1}{4}^{-\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{1}{(\frac{1}{4})^{\frac{1}{2}}}$

On the other hand we have that by definition:

$a^{\frac{1}{2}}=\sqrt{a}$

Thus, the expression can be written as:

$\frac{1}{\sqrt {\frac{1}{4}}} =$

$\frac{1}{\frac{1}{\sqrt{4}}}$

$\frac{1}{\frac{1}{2}}$

$\frac{1*2}{1*1}=2$

So, we have:

$\frac{1}{4}^{-\frac{1}{2}}= 2$

Answer:

$\frac{1}{4}^{-\frac{1}{2}}= 2$

Allisa [31]

Answer:

Probability of stopping the machine when $X < 9$ is 0.0002

Probability of stopping the machine when $X < 10$ is 0.0013

Probability of stopping the machine when $X < 11$ is 0.0082

Probability of stopping the machine when $X < 12$ is 0.0399

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a random binomial variable $X$ that represents the number of units come off the line within product specifications in a review of $n$ Bernoulli-type trials with probability of success $0.91$ . Therefore, the model is ${15 \choose x} (0.91) ^ {x} (0.09) ^ {(15-x)}$ . So:
