1. It is important to go through each of the words given in the question to get through to the actual answer. The function will be:
y= (4 * x) - 5
  = 4x - 5

2. The function of this statement will be

1. Let us assume the price of a pizza = p
    From the first part we can write 
    p = $6.95
    On adding the price of each topping "t" we get
    p = $6.95 + ($0.95) * t
       = <span>$6.95 + $0.95t</span>

In a manufacturing plant that produces new computers, a 0.15 probability exists that a computer will be defective. if five compu
Sindrei [870]

The probability that all of them will be defective is 0.0000759375

<em><u>Explanation</u></em>

The general <u>Binomial Probability</u> formula is....

P= ^nC_{r}*p^r*(1-p)^n^-^r, where p is the probability of success, n is the total number of trials and r is the desired numbers of trials.

Given, the probability that a computer will be defective is 0.15 , so p = 0.15

Five computers are manufactured and we need to find the probability that all of them will be defective. That means, n = 5 and r = 5

Now according to the above formula....

P= ^5C_{5}*(0.15)^5*(1-0.15)^5^-^5 \\ \\ P= 1*(0.15)^5* (0.85)^0\\ \\ P=(0.15)^5 =0.0000759375

So, the probability that all of them will be defective is 0.0000759375

A submarine starts at sea level and travels to a position that is a little lower than −24 feet. Use the drop-down menus to compl
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

  1. The submarine's position means the distance it traveled is greater than 24 feet
  2. A possible position of the submarine is -27 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance is generally a positive number. (Displacement, or position may be negative, as in this case.) If the sub started at 0 feet and went lower than -24 feet, it traveled a distance of more than 24 feet (greater than 24 ft).

Of the numbers listed, the only one lower than -24 is -27.

Sin(angle) = opposite leg / hypotenuse

Sin(45) = Opposite leg / 28

Opposite Leg = 28 * Sin(45)

Opposite Leg = 14 SQRT(2) = 19.8

Carlos drove to the train station and back. The trip there took five hours and the trip back took four hours. What was Carlos' a
katrin2010 [14]

Answer: 54.4 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the distance to the train station. If it took Carlos 4 hours to come back driving at 68 mph, the distance is:

= Speed * time

= 68 * 4

= 272 miles

This means that Carlos drove for 5 hours to cover 272 miles the first time. His average speed was therefore:

= Distance / time

= 272/5

= 54.4 mph
