Answer:

slope = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m = $\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (5, 14) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (1, - 2)

m = $\frac{-2-14}{1-5}$ = $\frac{-16}{-4}$ = 4

How do I solve x(3x-17)=0 using the square root property

scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

x = 0 or $x = \frac{17}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the quadratic equation of variable x and we have to solve the equation using the square root property.

Now, we have x(3x - 17) = 0

⇒ 3x² - 17x = 0

⇒ $3(x^{2} - \frac{17}{3}x ) = 0$

⇒ $x^{2} - 2 \times (\frac{17}{6}) \times x + (\frac{17}{6} )^{2} = (\frac{17}{6} )^{2}$

⇒ $(x - \frac{17}{6})^{2} = (\frac{17}{6} )^{2}$

Now,square rooting both sides we get,

$x - \frac{17}{6} = \pm\frac{17}{6}$

Therefore, either x = 0 or $x = \frac{17}{3}$ (Answer)

Reasoning in a laboratory, the probability a bacterial colony thrives is 70%. The numbers 0 to 6 represent the outcome that a co

Maurinko [17]

Answer:

The probability that exactly half of the colonies will thrive = (1/3) = 0.3333

Step-by-step explanation:

The list of random numbers simulates the out comes of 4 colonies.

Based On the simulation in 6 trails, what is the probability that exactly half of the colonies will thrive?

The probability of an event is given mathematically as the number of elements in the event divided the total number of elements in the sample space.

Noting that the numbers 0 to 6 indicate that a colony thrives and the number 7 to 9 represent that a colony doesn't thrive.

The 6 trials are given as

4285; 3 colonies thrive, 1 doesn't.

6903; 3 colonies thrive, 1 doesn't.

3829; 2 colonies thrive, 2 don't.

7871; 1 colony thrives, 3 don't.

2868; 2 colonies thrive, 2 don't.

5137; 3 colonies thrive, 1 doesn't.

The number of trials where exactly 2 colonies thrive = 2

The total number of trials = 6

The probability that exactly half of the colonies will thrive = (2/6) = (1/3) = 0.3333

Hope this Helps!!!
