Answer:

y-intercept

Step-by-step explanation:

[ y = mx + b ] represents slope-intercept form where m = slope and b = y-intercept. Whenever we want to put values into this form, we can solve for the slope of two given points and solve for the y-intercept using the slope and one point.

Best of Luck!

Bobby is testing the effectiveness of a new cough medication. There are 100 people with a cough in the study. Seventy patients r
Tresset [83]

Answer:

0.665

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:  100 people are split into two groups 70 and 30.  I group is given cough syrup treatment but second group did not.

Prob for a person to be in the cough medication group = 0.70

Out of people who received medication, 34% did not have cough

Prob for a person to be in cough medication and did not have cough

=\frac{0.70(34)}{60}=0.397


Prob for a person to be not in cough medication and did not have cough

=\frac{0.3(20)}{30}=0.20

Probability for a person not to have cough

= P(M1C')+P(M2C')

where M1 = event of having medication and M2 = not having medication and C' not having cough

This is because M1 and M2 are mutually exclusive and exhaustive

SO P(C') = 0.397+0.2=0.597

Hence required prob =P(M1/C') = \frac{0.397}{0.597}=0.665

Sonya wants to sew ribbon along each side of a square pillow.
Eduardwww [97]

We are given area of the ribbon = 144 square inches.

We know formula for side of a square = \sqrt{Area \ of \ a \ square }.

Plugging value of area in the formula, we get

Side of the square = \sqrt{144}

= 12 inches.

Sonya wants to sew ribbon along each side of a square pillow.

So, we need to find the perimeter of the square pillow.

<h3>Perimeter = 4 × side = 4 × 12 = 48 inches.</h3><h3>Therefore, she buy 48 inches of ribbon to have the exact amount that she needs.</h3>

Classify the following triangle. Check all that apply.
xeze [42]

Answer:

Option A and B

Step-by-step explanation:

sides of the triangle have been given as 15, 15.8, 30 units.

angles of the same triangle has been given as 70°, 80°, [180-(70+80)] or 30°.

Here we see all sides and all the angles of the given triangle have different measures ( all the three sides and angles are different )

By the definition of scalene triangle the given triangle will be scalene.

Since all three angles of the triangle are acute angles (less than 90°).
