Answer:Is an estimate of the average grams of salt used in 2012

Step-by-step explanation: Let

x ---> the number of years since 2012

f(x) ---> is the total amount of salt ingested in grams

we have

This is a linear equation in slope intercept form

where

The slope is equal to

The y-intercept or initial value is equal to

The y-intercept is the value of the function f(x) when the value of x is equal to zero

In this context, the y-intercept is the average amount of grams of salt ingested  in the year 2012

The exact value of the average amount of grams of salt ingested  in the year 2012 is 3,554 grams (see the data in the table)

Compare the exact value with the y-intercept

therefore

3,548 grams Is an estimate of the average grams of salt used in 2012

A basketball player has made 6060​% of his foul shots during the season. Assume the shots are independent. ​
motikmotik

Answer:

a) 2.5 shots

b) 59.4 shots

c) 4.87 shots

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of making the shot = 0.6

Probability of missing the shot = 0.4

a) The expected number of shots until the player misses is given by:

E(X) = \frac{1}{P(X)}=\frac{1}{0.4}  \\E(X) = 2.5\ shots

The expected number of shots until the first miss is 2.5

b) The expected number of shots made in 99 attempts is:

E=99*0.6\\E=59.4\ shots

He is expected to make 59.4 shots

c) Let "p" be the proportion shots that the player make, the standard deviation for n = 99 shots is:

s=\sqrt{n*p*(1-p)}\\ s= 4.87\ shots

The standard deviation is 4.87 shots.

Paul [167]

Answer: =10x+8y−12


Step-by-step explanation:

Let's simplify step-by-step.

−6x−12+8y+16x

=−6x+−12+8y+16x

Combine Like Terms:

=−6x+−12+8y+16x

=(−6x+16x)+(8y)+(−12)

=10x+8y+−12

Answer:

=10x+8y−12
