Answer:
(6, - 4 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
- 
y = 3 → (1)
x - 
= 12 → (2)
Multiply (1) by 8 and (2) by 6 to clear the fractions
2x - 3y = 24 → (3)
10x - 3y = 72 → (4)
Rearrange (3) expressing - 3y in terms of x by subtracting 2x from both sides
- 3y = 24 - 2x
Substitute 3y = 24 - 2x into (4)
10x + 24 - 2x = 72, that is
8x + 24 = 72 ( subtract 24 from both sides )
8x = 48 ( divide both sides by 8 )
x = 6
Substitute x = 6 in either (3) or (4) and solve for y
Substituting in (3)
2(6) - 3y = 24
12 - 3y = 24 ( subtract 12 from both sides )
- 3y = 12 ( divide both sides by - 3 )
y = - 4
Solution is (6, - 4 )
As x heads off to negative infinity (towards the left side), the curve slowly approaches the horizontal line y = 1. It will never actually touch or cross this horizontal line. It simply gets closer and closer. Think of it as an electric fence of sorts.
Therefore the horizontal asymptote is y = 1
Complete question is:
Seventy million pounds of trout are grown in the U.S. every year. Farm-raised trout contain an average of 32 grams of fat per pound, with a standard deviation of 7 grams of fat per pound. A random sample of 34 farm-raised trout is selected. The mean fat content for the sample is 29.7 grams per pound. Find the probability of observing a sample mean of 29.7 grams of fat per pound or less in a random sample of 34 farm-raised trout. Carry your intermediate computations to at least four decimal places. Round your answer to at least three decimal places.
Answer:
Probability = 0.0277
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given;
Mean: μ = 32
Standard deviation;σ = 7
Random sample number; n = 34
To solve this question, we would use the equation z = (x - μ)/(σ/√n) to find the z value that corresponds to 29.7 grams of fat.
Thus;
z = (29.7 - 32)/(7/√34)
Thus, z = -2.3/1.200490096
z = -1.9159
From the standard z table and confirming with z-calculator, the probability is 0.0277
Thus, the probability to select 34 fish whose average grams of fat per pound is less than 29.7 = 0.0277
Answer:
5.65%
Step-by-step explanation:
Principal=$600
Time=20 years
FV=600*3=$1800
n=1
r=?
r= n[(A/P)^1/nt - 1]
=1{(1800/600)^ 1/1*20 - 1}
={(3)^1/20-1}
=3^0.05-1
=1.0565-1
=0.0565
rate=0.0565*100
=5.65% to the nearest hundredth percent
Answer:
y = 2x+1 (slope-intercept form)
Step-by-step explanation:
From line B, y = 2x -2 and comparing with the general equation of line, y = mx +c, we have
m1 = 2
Parallelism rule states that m1=m2
Therefore, m2 = 2
Hence, the equation passing through point A(1,3) is
y-y1 = m2(x-X1)
y - 3 = 2(x-1)
y-3 = 2x-2
y = 2x-2+3
y = 2x+1 (slope-intercept form)
