5 0

Answer:

13/100, or 0.13%.

Step-by-step explanation:

You have a fair coin: this means it has a 50% chance of landing heads up and a 50% chance of landing tails up. You flip it three times and these flips are independent. What is the probability that it lands heads up all three times, 0.13.

For the equation -4y = 8x , what is the constant of variation?
Inga [223]
-4y = 8x

Divide both sides by -4

y = -2x

This is in the form of y = kx, where k is the constant of variation.
y = kx is the direct 

That means, k = -2. 

The constant of variation is B. -2.

Consider h(x)=x^2+8+15. identify its vertex and y-intercept.
OleMash [197]

Answer:

Vertex: (-4, -1)

Y-intercept: (0, 15)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the quaratic function, h(x) = x² + 8x + 15:

In order to determine the vertex of the given function, we can use the formula, [x = \frac{-b}{2a}, h(\frac{-b}{2a})].

<h3>Use the equation:  [x = \frac{-b}{2a}, h(\frac{-b}{2a})]</h3>

In the quadratic function, h(x) = x² + 8x + 15, where:

a = 1, b = 8, and c = 15:

Substitute the given values for <em>a</em> and <em>b</em> into the equation to solve for the x-coordinate of the vertex.

x = \frac{-b}{2a}

x = \frac{-8}{2(1)}

x = -4

Subsitute the value of the x-coordinate into the given function to solve for the <u>y-coordinate of the vertex</u>:

h(x) = x² + 8x + 15

h(-4) = (-4)² + 8(-4) + 15

h(-4) = 16 - 32 + 15

h(-4) = -1

Therefore, the vertex of the given function is (-4, -1).

<h3>Solve for the Y-intercept:</h3>

The <u>y-intercept</u> is the point on the graph where it crosse the y-axis. In order to find the y-intercept of the function, set x = 0, and solve for the y-intercept:

h(x) = x² + 8x + 15

h(0) = (0)² + 8(0) + 15

h(0) = 0 + 0 + 15

h(0) = 15

Therefore, the y-intercept of the quadratic function is (0, 15).

Let L be a tangent line to the hyperbola x y = 2 at x = 9 . Find the area of the triangle bounded by L and the coordinate axes.
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

A = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the slope of the tangent line L is obtained by deriving the equation of the hyperbola:

y = \frac{2}{x}

y'=-2\cdot x^{-2}

The numerical value of the slope is:

y' = -2 \cdot (9)^{-2}\\y' = -\frac{2}{81}

The component of the y-axis is:

y = \frac{2}{9}

Now, the tangent line has the following mathematical model:

y = m \cdot x + b

The value of the intercept is found by isolating it within the equation and replacing all known variables:

b = y - m \cdot x

b = \frac{2}{9}-(-\frac{2}{81} )\cdot (9)\\b = \frac{4}{9}

Thus, the tangent line is:

y = -\frac{2}{81}\cdot x + \frac{4}{9}

The vertical distance between a point of the tangent line and the origin is given by the intercept.

d_{y} = \frac{4}{9}

In order to find horizontal distance between a point of the tangent line and the origin, let equalize y to zero and clear x:

-\frac{2}{81}\cdot x + \frac{4}{9}=0

-\frac{2}{9}\cdot x + 4 = 0

x = 18

d_{x} = 18

The area of the triangle is computed by this formula:

A = \frac{1}{2}\cdot d_{x}\cdot d_{y}

A = \frac{1}{2}\cdot (18)\cdot (\frac{4}{9} )

A = 4
