D. Is not true

Point slope form is
y-y1=m(x-x1)

So y1 is -3 and x1 is 7 where we have the point (7, -3) not (-7, 3)

The figure below shows a straight line AB intersected by another straight line t:

BaLLatris [955]

When two straight lines intersect, the pairs of nonadjacent angles in opposite posi-tions are known as vertical angles.

If a segment AB is intersected by a transversal labeled t, then ∠1 and ∠3 and ∠2 and ∠4 are vertically angles formed by the transversal t on the segment AB.

Angles ∠1 and ∠2 can be described as adjacent and supplementary angles, so

$m\angle 1+m\angle 2=180^{\circ}$ .

Angles ∠3 and ∠2 can be also described as adjacent and supplementary angles, so

$m\angle 3+m\angle 2=180^{\circ}$ .

Subtract from the first equation the second equation:

$m\angle 1+m\angle 2-(m\angle 3+m\angle 2)=180^{\circ}-180^{\circ},\\ m\angle 1-m\angle 3=0,\\ m\angle 1=m\angle 3$ .

Similarly you can prove that $m\angle 2=m\angle 4$ .

A recursive rule for a geometric sequence is

LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

C. $a_n=(9)(\frac{2}{3})^{n-1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Iterative geometric sequence:

$a_n=a_1x^{n-1}$

Recursive geometric sequence:

$a_n=xa_{n-1}$

The equations are very similar and you only really need to rearrange it. The factor (2/3) and the first term (9) are given, so you can write the iterative equation:

$a_n=(9)(\frac{2}{3})^{n-1}$

And so the answer is C.

The Slow Ball Challenge or The Fast Ball Challenge.

cupoosta [38]

Answer:

Fast ball challenge

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Slow Ball Challenge

$Pitches = 7$

$P(Hit) = 80\%$

$Win = \$60$

$Lost = \$10$

Fast Ball Challenge

$Pitches = 3$

$P(Hit) = 70\%$

$Win = \$60$

$Lost = \$10$

Required

Which should he choose?

To do this, we simply calculate the expected earnings of both.

Considering the slow ball challenge

First, we calculate the binomial probability that he hits all 7 pitches

$P(x) =^nC_x * p^x * (1 - p)^{n - x}$

Where

$n = 7$ --- pitches

$x = 7$ --- all hits

$p = 80\% = 0.80$ --- probability of hit

So, we have:

$P(x) =^nC_x * p^x * (1 - p)^{n - x}$

$P(7) =^7C_7 * 0.80^7 * (1 - 0.80)^{7 - 7}$

$P(7) =1 * 0.80^7 * (1 - 0.80)^0$

$P(7) =1 * 0.80^7 * 0.20^0$

Using a calculator:

$P(7) =0.2097152$ --- This is the probability that he wins

i.e.

$P(Win) =0.2097152$

The probability that he lose is:

$P(Lose) = 1 - P(Win)$ ---- Complement rule

$P(Lose) = 1 -0.2097152$

$P(Lose) = 0.7902848$

The expected value is then calculated as:

$Expected = P(Win) * Win + P(Lose) * Lose$

$Expected = 0.2097152 * \$60 + 0.7902848 * \$10$

Using a calculator, we have:

$Expected = \$20.48576$

Considering the fast ball challenge

First, we calculate the binomial probability that he hits all 3 pitches

$P(x) =^nC_x * p^x * (1 - p)^{n - x}$

Where

$n = 3$ --- pitches

$x = 3$ --- all hits

$p = 70\% = 0.70$ --- probability of hit

So, we have:

$P(3) =^3C_3 * 0.70^3 * (1 - 0.70)^{3 - 3}$

$P(3) =1 * 0.70^3 * (1 - 0.70)^0$

$P(3) =1 * 0.70^3 * 0.30^0$

Using a calculator:

$P(3) =0.343$ --- This is the probability that he wins

i.e.

$P(Win) =0.343$

The probability that he lose is:

$P(Lose) = 1 - P(Win)$ ---- Complement rule

$P(Lose) = 1 - 0.343$

$P(Lose) = 0.657$

The expected value is then calculated as:

$Expected = P(Win) * Win + P(Lose) * Lose$

$Expected = 0.343 * \$60 + 0.657 * \$10$

Using a calculator, we have:

$Expected = \$27.15$

So, we have:

$Expected = \$20.48576$ -- Slow ball

$Expected = \$27.15$ --- Fast ball

<em>The expected earnings of the fast ball challenge is greater than that of the slow ball. Hence, he should choose the fast ball challenge.</em>

Help plssss and thank you

dimaraw [331]

Answer:

$y=\frac{1}{4}x +3$

Step-by-step explanation:

slope (rise over run) choose 2 points that are easy to figure out. Count up and over to get the slope

(0,3) and (4,4)

3 to 4 is 1

0 to 4 is 4

slope is 1/4

y intercept is b- so +3

y= $y=\frac{1}{4} x+3$
