Write the equation of the line that passes through the given points.

Mathematics
1 answer:
ozzi3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Going from (15/8,0) to (17/8,1/2), we see that x (the 'run') increases by 2/8, or 1/4, and that y (the 'rise') increases by 1/2.  Thus, the slope of this line through the given points is m = rise / run = (1/2) / (1/4) = 2.

Using the point-slope formula for the equation of a line, we obtain:

y - 0 = 2(x - 15/8), or

y = 2(x - 15/8) (simplest form), or

8y  = 2x - 15/4, or

2x - 8y = 15/4, or

8x - 32y = 15

All of these are correct; they are 'equivalent.'

12.1.33 Question Help Suppose that 62​% of families living in a certain country own an HDTV and 16​% own a computer. The Additio
poizon [28]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose :

62% own an HDTV

16% own a computer

Using the addition rule : suggests that (62% + 16%) = 78% either own an HDTV or a computer.

The reasoning is wrong because ; since it is possible to own both an HDTV and also own a computer at the same time, the outcome of the addition rule is wrong as both events are independent. If both event cannot occur at the same time (mutually exclusive event) , then, the addition rule may be applied,. But since both can occur independently and each family can own an HDTV while also owning a computer, then the addition rule is wrong for the scenario described.

A population of bacteria begins with 1500 bacteria and grows to 4500 in one hour.
dezoksy [38]

The function that represents the growth of this culture of bacteria as a function of time is; P = 1500e^(1.0986t)

<h3>How to calculate Exponential Growth?</h3>

The formula for exponential growth is;

P = P₀e^(rt)

where;

P = current population at time t

P₀ = starting population

r = rate of exponential growth/decay

t = time after start

Thus, from our question we have;

4500 = 1500 * e^(r * 1)

4500/1500 = e^r

e^r = 3

In 3 = r

r = 1.0986

Thus, the function that represents the growth of this culture of bacteria as a function of time is;

P = 1500e^(1.0986t)

For the culture to double, then;

P/P₀ = 2. Thus;

e^(1.0986t) = 2

In 2 = 1.0986t

t = 0.6931/1.0986

t = 0.631 hours
