Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line with slope of <em>m</em> and y-intercept of <em>b</em> is: y = mx + b

b = 2 and line contains the point (4, -9), so:

-9 = m×4 + 2 {subtract 2 from both sides}

-11 = 4m {divide booth sides by 4

m = -¹¹/₄

Voltage sags and swells. The power quality of a transformer is measured by the quality of the voltage. Two causes of poor power

Answer:

$z-score = 1.57$

$z-score_s = -3.36$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The sample size is n = 103

The sample mean of sag is $\= x_1 = 353$

The sample mean of swells is $\= x_2 = 184$

The standard deviation of sag is $s_1 = 30$

The standard deviation of swells is $s_2 = 25$

The number of swell for a randomly selected transformer is k = 100

The number of sag for a randomly selected transformer is c = 400

Generally the z-score for the number of swells is mathematically represented as

$z-score_s = \frac{ k - \= x_2}{s_2}$

=> $z-score_s = \frac{ 100- 184}{25}$

=> $z-score_s = -3.36$

Generally the z-score for the number of sags is mathematically represented as

$z-score = \frac{ c - \= x_1}{s_1}$

$z-score = \frac{ 400 - 353}{30}$

$z-score = 1.57$

Find the sum of the following series. Round to the nearest hundredth if necessary,

Aneli [31]

Answer:

$sum = \frac{a( {r}^{n - 1} )}{r - 1} \\ : but \: l = a( {r}^{n - 1} ) \\ 49152 = 3( {2}^{n - 1} ) \\ 16384 = {2}^{n - 1} \\ {2}^{n} = 32768 \\ {2}^{n} = {2}^{15} \\ n = 15 \\ \therefore \: sum = \frac{3(2 {}^{15 - 1}) }{15 - 1} \\ = \frac{49152}{14} \\ = 3510.9$
