Answer:

y - 1 = 5(x - 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

Points (x, y) = (5, 1)

Slope = ?

From the question, the value of the slope is missing. Hence, let's assume a value of 5.

Mathematically, the equation of a straight line is given by the formula;

y = mx + c

Where;

m is the slope.

x and y are the points

c is the intercept.

To find the equation of line, we would use the following formula;

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Substituting into the formula, we have;

y - 1 = 5(x - 5)

y - 1 = 5x - 25

y = 5x - 25 + 1

y = 5x - 24 = mx + c

Answer:

Event is not unusual(p>0.05).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

$p=0.10\\\\n=1100\\\\x=121$

#The sample proportion is calculated as:

$\hat p=\frac{x}{n}\\\\=\frac{121}{1100}\\\\=0.1100$

#Mathematically, the z-value is the value decreased by the mean then divided the standard deviation :

$z=\frac{\hat p- p}{\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}}\\\\\\\\=\frac{0.11-0.10}{\sqrt{\frac{0.10(1-0.10)}{1100}}}\\\\\\=1.1055$

#We use the normal probability table to determine the corresponding probability;

$P(X\geq 121)=P(Z>1.1055)\\\\=0.1314$

Hence, the probaility is more than 0.05, thus the event not unusual and thus this is not necessarily evidence that the proportion of Americans who are afraid to fly has increased.

For the function g(x)=3x^2-3x-9 what is the value of g(4)

Annette [7]

G(4) = 3x^2 - 3x - 9

Since the g(4) would be g(x) if you didn't know the number. So, substitute all of the x's for 4.

g(4) = 3(4)^2 - 3(4) - 9

g(4) = 3(16) - 12 - 9

g(4) = 48 - 3

g(4) = 45

I hope this helps you!
