Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Here m = - 3 , thus

y = - 3x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (7, 8) into the partial equation

8 = - 21 + c ⇒ c = 8 + 21 = 29

y = - 3x + 29 → A

Answer:

The answer is 4 + √15 .

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to get rid of surds in the denorminator by multiplying it with the opposite sign :

$\frac{ \sqrt{5} + \sqrt{3} }{ \sqrt{5} - \sqrt{3} }$

$= \frac{ \sqrt{5} + \sqrt{3} }{ \sqrt{5} - \sqrt{3} } \times \frac{ \sqrt{5} + \sqrt{3} }{ \sqrt{5} + \sqrt{3} }$

$= \frac{ {( \sqrt{5} + \sqrt{3} ) }^{2} }{( \sqrt{5} - \sqrt{3} )( \sqrt{5} + \sqrt{3}) }$

$= \frac{ {( \sqrt{5} )}^{2} + 2( \sqrt{5} )( \sqrt{3}) + {( \sqrt{3}) }^{2} }{ {( \sqrt{5}) }^{2} - { (\sqrt{3} )}^{2} }$

$= \frac{5 + 2 \sqrt{15} + 3 }{5 - 3}$

$= \frac{8 + 2 \sqrt{15} }{2}$

$= 4 + \sqrt{15}$

There are three power plants [X, Y, Z] that at any given time each one either generates electricity or idles. Event A is that pl

insens350 [35]

We're told that

$P(A\cap B)=0.15$

$P(A\cup B)^C=0.06\implies P(A\cup B)=0.94$

$P(B\mid A)=P(B^C\mid A)=0.5$

where the last fact is due to the law of total probability:

$P(A)=P(A\cap B)+P(A\cap B^C)$

$\implies P(A)=P(B\mid A)P(A)+P(B^C\mid A)P(A)$

$\implies 1=P(B\mid A)+P(B^C\mid A)$

so that $B\mid A$ and $B^C\mid A$ are complementary.

By definition of conditional probability, we have

$P(B\mid A)=P(B^C\mid A)$

$\implies\dfrac{P(A\cap B)}{P(A)}=\dfrac{P(A\cap B^C)}{P(A)}$

$\implies P(A\cap B)=P(A\cap B^C)$

We make use of the addition rule and complementary probabilities to rewrite this as

$P(A\cap B)=P(A\cap B^C)$

$\implies P(A)+P(B)-P(A\cup B)=P(A)+P(B^C)-P(A\cup B^C)$

$\implies P(B)-[1-P(A\cup B)^C]=[1-P(B)]-P(A\cup B^C)$

$\implies2P(B)=2-[P(A\cup B)^C+P(A\cup B^C)]$

$\implies2P(B)=[1-P(A\cup B)^C]+[1-P(A\cup B^C)]$

$\implies2P(B)=P(A\cup B)+P(A\cup B^C)^C$

$\implies2P(B)=P(A\cup B)+P(A^C\cap B)\quad(*)$

By the law of total probability,

$P(B)=P(A\cap B)+P(A^C\cap B)$

$\implies P(A^C\cap B)=P(B)-P(A\cap B)$

and substituting this into $(*)$ gives

$2P(B)=P(A\cup B)+[P(B)-P(A\cap B)]$

$\implies P(B)=P(A\cup B)-P(A\cap B)$

$\implies P(B)=0.94-0.15=\boxed{0.79}$

Step-by-step explanation:

x−1<−10

Add 1 to both sides.

x<−10+1

Add −10 and 1 to get −9.

x<−9

aev [14]

Answer:

Okay so I am not positive but I will try to help you out. Okay so the line of best fit would positive. Because it is all going up. The approximate slope is 3/4 Because slope is change in y over change in x. The y intercept of the line of best fit would be (0,0). This is because when drawing the line you can see that it would intercept the y-axis at zero. My steps taken were basically just looking at it and peicing everything together. If you want to get more involved with slope you could pick to coordinates which I will include and do change in y over change in x.

My points I will pick are (1,1) and (5,2)

2-1/5-1=3/4

therefore approximate slope is 3/4

Like I said I am not positive but I am just trying to help out in some way.

If something is incorrect please inform me. If this helps also please inform me.
