Answer:

\displaystyle y-5=-\frac{10}{9}(x+6)

Or:

\displaystyle y+5=-\frac{10}{9}(x-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to write the equation of a line that passes through the points (-6, 5) and (3, -5) in point-slope form.

Point-slope form is given by:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

Thus, first, we need to find the slope. We can use the slope formula:

\displaystyle m=\frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x}=\frac{(-5)-(5)}{(3)-(-6)}=\frac{-10}{9}=-\frac{10}{9}

Next, we can use either of the two given points. I'll use (-6, 5). So, let (-6, 5) be (<em>x₁, y₁</em>). Substitute:

\displaystyle y-(5)=-\frac{10}{9}(x-(-6))

Or, fully simplified:

\displaystyle y-5=\frac{-10}{9}(x+6)

Using the other point, we will acquire:

\displaystyle y-(-5)=-\frac{10}{9}(x-(3))

Or, simplified:

\displaystyle y+5=-\frac{10}{9}(x-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

to find rate= 100×simple interest ÷ (principal ×time)

simple interest=total amount - principal

=1,500,000-1,300,000

=200,000

=200,000 ×100÷ 1,300,000×4

=3 11/13% per annum

The lifespan, in years, of a certain computer is exponentially distributed. The probability that its lifespan exceeds four years
kompoz [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is "0.300993e^{-0.300993x}".

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the question,

⇒ P(x>4)=0.3

We know that,

⇒ P(X > x) = e^{(-\lambda\times x)}

⇒     e^{(-\lambda\times 4)} = 0.3

∵ \lambda = 0.300993

Now,

⇒ f(x) = \lambda e^{-\lambda x}

By putting the value, we get

           =0.300993e^{-0.300993x}
