Answer:

The value of n = -10

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the points

(3, n)

(4,0)

Finding the slope between (3, n) and (4,0)

$\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(3,\:n\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(4,\:0\right)$

As slope = 10

using the formula

Slope = [y₂ - y₁] / [x₂ - x₁]

so substituting the values

10 = [0 - n] / [4 - 3]

10 = -n / 1

10 = -n

n = -10

Therefore, the value of n = -10

How do you do this problem?

faust18 [17]

The volume of the original cylinder is

... V = π·r²·h

For r=1 and h=1, this is

... V = π·1²·1 = π

For the new cylinder, the volume is 1.089 times that amount.

... V = 1.089π = π·1.1²·(1-k)

... 1.089/1.21 = 1-k

... k = 1 - 1.089/1.21 = 1 - 0.9 = 0.1 = 10%

The appropriate choice is (B) 10.

In a group of a hundred and fifty students attending a youth workshop in mombasa, 125 of them are fluent in kiswahili, 135 in en

jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

The probability that a student chosen at random is fluent in English or Swahili.

P(S∪E) = 1.1

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

Given total number of students n(T) = 150

Given 125 of them are fluent in Swahili

Let 'S' be the event of fluent in Swahili language

n(S) = 125

The probability that the fluent in Swahili language

$P(S) = \frac{n(S)}{n(T)} = \frac{125}{150} = 0.8333$

Let 'E' be the event of fluent in English language

n(E) = 135

The probability that the fluent in English language

$P(E) = \frac{n(E)}{n(T)} = \frac{135}{150} = 0.9$

n(E∩S) = 95

The probability that the fluent in English and Swahili

$P(SnE) = \frac{n(SnE)}{n(T)} = \frac{95}{150} = 0.633$

Step(ii):-

The probability that a student chosen at random is fluent in English or Swahili.

P(S∪E) = P(S) + P(E) - P(S∩E)

= 0.833+0.9-0.633

= 1.1

Final answer:-

The probability that a student chosen at random is fluent in English or Swahili.

P(S∪E) = 1.1
