Find c such that (−3,−8), (−7,−6), and (c,4) lie on a line.

Nutka1998 [239]

If the 3 points are collinear, then the slopes of all line segments connecting the points are the same.

Thus,

-6 - (-8) 2
m = ------------- = -------- = -1/2
-7 - (-3) -4

Then the following must be true:

4-(-6) 10
-1/2 = ------------ = ---------
c - (-7) c + 7

Cross multiplying, -(c+7) = 20, and c+7 = -20, so that c = -27

A financial advisor is analyzing a family's estate plan. The amount of money that the family has invested in different real esta

Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

The amount of money separating the lowest 80% of the amount invested from the highest 20% in a sampling distribution of 10 of the family's real estate holdings is $238,281.57.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the random variable X represent the amount of money that the family has invested in different real estate properties.

The random variable X follows a Normal distribution with parameters μ = $225,000 and σ = $50,000.

It is provided that the family has invested in n = 10 different real estate properties.

Then the mean and standard deviation of amount of money that the family has invested in these 10 different real estate properties is:

$\mu_{\bar x}=\mu=\$225,000\\\\\sigma_{\bar x}=\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}=\frac{50000}{\sqrt{10}}=15811.39$

Now the lowest 80% of the amount invested can be represented as follows:

$P(\bar X$

The value of z is 0.84.

*Use a z-table.

Compute the value of the mean amount invested as follows:

$\bar x=\mu_{\bar x}+z\cdot \sigma_{\bar x}$

$=225000+(0.84\times 15811.39)\\\\=225000+13281.5676\\\\=238281.5676\\\\\approx 238281.57$

Thus, the amount of money separating the lowest 80% of the amount invested from the highest 20% in a sampling distribution of 10 of the family's real estate holdings is $238,281.57.

I need help to these questions. Convert these fractions to a decimal 7/8 , 4 3/8. Thanks

ehidna [41]

Simple...

you have: $\frac{7}{8}$ and $4 \frac{3}{8}$

Now, the first one is easy just divide it...

$\frac{7}{8} =0.875$

Now....

$4 \frac{3}{8}$ needs to be converted...

Multiply the whole number*denominator...

4*8=32

Now add the numerator....

32+3=35

Now use the original denominator...

$\frac{35}{8}$

Now divide...

$\frac{35}{8}=4.375
$

Thus, your answer.

Me.perez drove a total of 40 miles in 5 days she drove the same number of miles each day.how many miles did me.perez drive each

ahrayia [7]

Answer:

She drove 8 miles each day.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that she drove equal number of miles in 5 days. So in order to find the number of miles in each days, you have to divide it by 5,

$5days = 40miles$

$1day = 40 \div 5$

$1day = 8miles$

2x² - 5x+1 has roots alpha and beta. Find alpha⁴+beta⁴ without solving the equation.

shepuryov [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$\alpha+\beta=\dfrac{5}{2} \\\\\alpha*\beta=\dfrac{1}{2} \\\\\alpha^2+\beta^2=\dfrac{21}{4} \ (see\ previous\ post)\\\\(\alpha+\beta)^4=\dfrac{625}{16} \\\\=\alpha^4+\beta^4+4*\alpha^3*\beta+6*\alpha^2*\beta^2+4*\alpha*\beta^3\\\\=\alpha^4+\beta^4+4*(\alpha*\beta)(\alpha^2+\beta^2)+6*\alpha^2*\beta^2\\\\\alpha^4+\beta^4=(\alpha+\beta)^4-4*(\alpha*\beta)(\alpha^2+\beta^2)-6*\alpha^2*\beta^2\\\\= \dfrac{625}{16} -4*\dfrac{1}{2} *\dfrac{21}{4} -6*(\dfrac{1}{2})^2 \\\\$

$= \dfrac{625}{16}- \dfrac{168}{16}-\dfrac{24}{16}\\\\\\= \dfrac{433}{16}$
