Answer:

y = -2/7x - 22/7

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Pre-Algebra</u>

Order of Operations: BPEMDAS

<u>Algebra I</u>

Slope Formula: $m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Slope-Intercept Form: y = mx + b

m - slope

b - y-intercept

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

Point (-4, -2)

Point (3, -4)

<u>Step 2: Find slope </u><em><u>m</u></em>

Substitute: $m=\frac{-4+2}{3+4}$
Add: $m=\frac{-2}{7}$

<u>Step 3: Find y-intercept </u><em><u>b</u></em>

Define: y = -2/7x + b
Substitute: -4 = -2/7(3) + b
Multiply: -4 = -6/7 + b
Isolate <em>b</em>: -22/7 = b
Rewrite: b = -22/7

<u>Step 4: Write linear equation</u>

y = -2/7x - 22/7

The answers are C and E,
According to the interior and exterior angle theorem, this should be correct:
<3+<4+<6=180
<3+<1=180
<4+<6=<1
so they are the interior opposite of <1

How do I solve for x?

notka56 [123]

Solving:
$\frac{3+4x}{2} + \frac{5-x}{3} = \frac{29}{6}$
Make the Least Common Multiple (2,3,6)
$2,3,6\:|2$
$1,3,3\:|3$
$1,1,1\:|\underline{2*3=6}$

<span>Replace denominators and resolve:
</span> $\frac{3+4x}{2} + \frac{5-x}{3} = \frac{29}{6}$
$\frac{3(3+4x)}{6} + \frac{2(5-x)}{6} = \frac{29}{6}$
Cancel the dominators
$\frac{3(3+4x)}{\diagup\!\!\!\!6} + \frac{2(5-x)}{\diagup\!\!\!\!6} = \frac{29}{\diagup\!\!\!\!6}$
$3(3+4x) + 2(5-x) = 29$
$9 + 12x + 10 - 2x = 29$
$12x - 2x = 29 - 9 - 10$
$10x = 20 - 10$
$10x = 10$
$x = \frac{10}{10}$
$\boxed{\boxed{x = 1}}\end{array}}\qquad\quad\checkmark$

Based on historical data, your manager believes that 37% of the company's orders come from first-time customers. A random sample

fomenos

Answer:

0.6214 = 62.14% probability that the sample proportion is between 0.26 and 0.38

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the z-score of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ .

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean $\mu = p$ and standard deviation $s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}$

37% of the company's orders come from first-time customers.

This means that $p = 0.37$

A random sample of 225 orders will be used to estimate the proportion of first-time-customers.

This means that $n = 225$

Mean and standard deviation:

$\mu = p = 0.37$

$s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}} = \sqrt{\frac{0.37*0.63}{225}} = 0.0322$

What is the probability that the sample proportion is between 0.26 and 0.38?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 0.38 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 0.26.

X = 0.38

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

By the Central Limit Theorem

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}$

$Z = \frac{0.38 - 0.37}{0.0322}$

$Z = 0.31$

$Z = 0.31$ has a pvalue of 0.6217

X = 0.26

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}$

$Z = \frac{0.26 - 0.37}{0.0322}$

$Z = -3.42$

$Z = -3.42$ has a pvalue of 0.0003

0.6217 - 0.0003 = 0.6214

0.6214 = 62.14% probability that the sample proportion is between 0.26 and 0.38
