Find the x- and y-intercepts of the following line: 4x − 3y = 12

Mathematics
1 answer:
Slav-nsk [51]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

x-intercept: (3,0)

y-intercept: (0,-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the x and y-intercepts, we first need to understand what they are. X and y-intercepts are points on the line that passes through the x-axis and y-axis. When a point is an x-intercept, it passes through the x-axis. This means the x-coordinate is an integer, while the y-coordinate is always 0. This can be denoted by (x,0). When a point is a y-intercept, it passes through the y-axis. This means the y-coordinate is an integer, while the x-coordinate is always 0. This can be denoted by (0,y).

Now that we know what x and y-intercepts are, we can plug in x=0 and y=0 to find the intercepts.

x-intercept

4x-3y=12            [plug in y=0]

4x-3(0)=12          [multiply]

4x-0=12              [add both sides by 0]

4x=12                 [divide both sides by 4]

x=3

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

y-intercept

4x-3y=12            [plug in x=0]

4(0)-3y=12         [multiply]

0-3y=12             [subtract both sides by 0]

-3y=12               [divide both sides by -3]

y=-4

Therefore, the x-intercept is (3,0) and y-intercept is (0,-4).

Which of the following vectors are orthogonal to (1,5)? Check all that apply
Andre45 [30]
We know that
If the scalar product of two vectors<span> is zero, both vectors are </span><span>orthogonal

</span><span>A. (-2,5)
</span>(-2,5)*(1,5)-------> -2*1+5*5=23-----------> <span>are not orthogonal 

</span><span>B. (10,-2)
</span>(10,-2)*(1,5)-------> 10*1-2*5=0-----------> are  orthogonal 

<span>C. (-1,-5)
</span>(-1,-5)*(1,5)-------> -1*1-5*5=-26-----------> are not orthogonal 

<span>D. (-5,1)
</span>(-5,1)*(1,5)-------> -5*1+1*5=0-----------> are  orthogonal 

the answer is 
B. (10,-2) and D. (-5,1)  are  orthogonal  to  (1,5)

Let the random variable X be the number of rooms in a randomly chosen owner-occupied housing unit in a certain city. The distrib
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

a) X is a discrete random variable.

b) 2% probability of choosing a unit with 10 rooms

c) 98% probability that a unit chosen at random is not a 10-room unit

d) 30% probability that a unit chosen at random has less than five rooms

e) 7% probability that a unit chosen at random has less than five rooms

Step-by-step explanation:

The distribution means that:

7% probability that a randomly chosen owner-occupied housing unit in a certain city has 3 rooms.

23% probability that a randomly chosen owner-occupied housing unit in a certain city has 4 rooms.

36% probability that a randomly chosen owner-occupied housing unit in a certain city has 5 rooms.

19% probability that a randomly chosen owner-occupied housing unit in a certain city has 6 rooms.

5% probability that a randomly chosen owner-occupied housing unit in a certain city has 7 rooms.

5% probability that a randomly chosen owner-occupied housing unit in a certain city has 8 rooms.

3% probability that a randomly chosen owner-occupied housing unit in a certain city has 9 rooms.

?% probability that a randomly chosen owner-occupied housing unit in a certain city has 10 rooms.

(a) Is X a discrete or continuous random variable?

X is the number of rooms in a randomly selected house. The number of rooms is a countable variable, that is, only assumes values like 1,2,3,4,... You cannot have 3.5 rooms, for example.

So X is a discrete random variable.

(b) What must be the probability of choosing a unit with 10 rooms?

The sum of all probabilities must be 100%(1 decimal). So

0.07 + 0.23 + 0.36 + 0.19 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.03 + ? = 1

0.98 + ? = 1

? = 0.02

2% probability of choosing a unit with 10 rooms

(c) What is the probability that a unit chosen at random is not a 10-room unit?

0.07 + 0.23 + 0.36 + 0.19 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.03 = 0.98

98% probability that a unit chosen at random is not a 10-room unit

(d) What is the probability that a unit chosen at random has less than five rooms?

7% probability it has 3 rooms

23% probability it has 4 rooms. So

7+23 = 30% probability that a unit chosen at random has less than five rooms

(e) What is the probability that a unit chosen at random has three rooms?

7% probability that a randomly chosen owner-occupied housing unit in a certain city has 3 rooms. So

7% probability that a unit chosen at random has less than five rooms

The variable overhead rate variance can be defined as which of the​ following? A. Standard rate x​ (Actual hours​ - Standard hou
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In costing analysis, direct materials, labour and direct expenses aggregate to prime cost.  Alternately, the aggregate of indirect materials, labour  and expenses is termed as overhead.  Overheads are classified into fixed and variable.

Variable overhead is one which varies directly as per number of units produced

Variable overhead rate variance = actual costs -(AHxSR)

= Actual costs - (Actual hours x std rate)

= Actual hours x actual rate - actual hours  x std rate

Hence option D is right.
