Answer:

4.78 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve the above question using z score formula

z = (x-μ)/σ, where

x is the raw score

μ is the population mean = 9.2 pound

σ is the population standard deviation = 3.4 pounds

z = 1.3

We are to find x

Hence,

-1.3 = x - 9.2/3.4

Cross Multiply

-1.3 × 3.4 = x - 9.2

-4.42 = x - 9.2

x = -4.42 + 9.2

x = 4.78 pounds.

Therefore the weight of the cat is 4.78 pounds

natulia [17]

Complete Question

Let P (n) be the statement that a postage of n cents can be formed using just 4-cent stamps and 7-cent stamps. The parts of this exercise outline a strong induction proof that P (n) is true for n ≥ 18.

Show statements P (18), P (19), P (20), and P (21) are true, completing the basis step of the proof.

Answer:

P(18) is true

P(19) is true

P(20) is true

P(21) is true

Step-by-step explanation:

a. When n = 18

18 cents can be formed using two 7cents and one 4cents

i.e. 2 * 7 + 4 = 18

So, P(18) is true

b. When n = 19

19 cents can be formed using one 7cents and three 4cents

i.e. 1 * 7 + 3 * 4 = 19

So, P(19) is true

c. When n = 20

18 cents can be formed using five 4cents

i.e. 5 * 4 = 20

So, P(20) is true

d. When n = 21

18 cents can be formed using three 7cents

i.e. 3 * 7 = 21

So, P(21) is true

Linda plans to put in wall-to-wall carpet in her bedroom. She measures the dimensions of her bedroom and skectches up the floor
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

The image of the floor dimensions is missing, so i have attached it.

Answer:

$88.92

Step-by-step explanation:

Looking at the attached floor plan, we have to divide it into two parts to solve easily.

To get the smaller side of the bigger triangle; 3 - 0.6 = 2.4m

Thus,bigger triangle measures; 3.6m x 2.4m

For the smaller triangle, dimensions are; 0.6m x 1.2m

Area of bigger triangle = 3.6 × 2.4 = 8.64 m²

Area of smaller triangle = 0.6 × 1.2 = 0.72 m²

Total area = 8.64 + 0.72 = 9.36 m²

Since the carpet costs $9.50 per sq.m.

Thus;

Total spent for wall to wall carpet is = 9.36 × 9.5 = $88.92

Find the point-slope equation for
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

y-24=m(x--4)

Step-by-step explanation:

point slope form:

y-y₁=m(x-x₁)

1) find the slope or "m" first:

slope formula: (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

(-53-24)/7+4

-77/11=-7

slope=-7

so

y-y₁=-7(x-x₁)

y1=24

x1=-4

y-24=m(x--4)

hope this helps!

The slope intercept form for a line is y = mx + b.
                                                                 ↑      <span>↑

m is the slope of the line or how steep it is. b is where the line runs into the y axis at one point. x and y are the values you plug in when you have a specific point you want to use (x, y).

For the first picture, you can see that the line "intercepts" or collides with the y axis at 1. Thus we know the b value.

To find the slope, you just pick 2 points on the line and plug them into a little equation (try to memorize this equation, it helps to find slope):

m = (y</span>₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

The two points we'll use are (1, 0) and (0, 1) since x goes through both of
those points.                          ↑  ↑           ↑  ↑
                                              x₁ y₁        x₂ y<span>₂

m = (1 - 0)/(0 - 1)

m = 1 / -1

m = -1

This makes sense - since the slope is going downward, the slope is negative.

So the equation is:

y = -x + 1

____________________________________________________________

For the second problem, We  can see the line intercepts the y-axis at -5. That is our b value.

The the slope of this line is 0 since it is not going up or down, so that is our m value:

y = 0(x) - 5 = -5

The equation of the line is y = -5</span>
