Answer:

x = 51

Step-by-step explanation:

It looks like alt int. angles (correct me if im wrong)

3x - 40 = 2x + 11

x = 51

Answer:

1) The linear equation in point and slope form is y - 67 = -4 × (x - 14)

2) The variables are;

a) The number of candies available = y

b) The number of days Jennifer eats the candies =

c) The slope, m = -4

3) Jennifer received 123 pieces of candies on Halloween

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The number of candies Jennifer eats everyday = 4 pieces

The number of days for which Jennifer eats the daily 4 candies = 14

The number of candies left at the end of the 14th day = 67 candies

1) We note that the rate of decrease in the number of candies = 4 candies/day

Therefore, the slope of the linear equation is m = -4

The y-intercept = The initial amount of candies Jennifer has = c = 67 + 14× 4 = 123 candies

The linear equation in point and slope form is given as follows;

y - 67 = -4 × (x - 14)

2) The variables are;

a) The y-value represents the number of candies available on a specific day

b) The x value represents the number of days Jennifer eats the candies'

c) The slope = The rate of decrease in the number of candies per day = -4

3) The number of candies Jennifer receives on Halloween is given by the y-intercept of the straight line equation as follows;

y - 67 = -4 × (x - 14)

y - 67 = -4·x + 56

y = -4·x + 56 + 67 = -4·x + 123

y = -4·x + 123

Comparing the above equation, with the general form of the straight line equation, y = m·x + c, where, the constant term, c = The y-intercept, we have;

The y-intercept of the equation y = -4·x + 123 = 123 = The initial amount of candies Jennifer received on Halloween.

According to a survey of adults, 64 percent have money in a bank savings account. If we were to survey 50 randomly selected adul

zheka24 [161]

Answer:

The mean number of adults who would have bank savings accounts is 32.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each adult surveyed, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they have bank savings accounts, or they do not. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this problem.

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x sucesses on n repeated trials, with p probability.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

$E(X) = np$
