Answer:

y=2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

first make the equation to interpret the question

x=k/y

find the value of k, which is a constant

when x=5 and y=2

5=k/2

k=10.

hence, find y when x=15

x=k/y

x=10/y

15=10/y

cross multiply

15y=10

divide both sides by 15

y=10/15

y=2/3

In 2014, 85 percent of households in the United States had a computer. For a randomly selected sample of 200 households in 2014,
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

The mean of C is 170 households

The standard deviation of C, is approximately 5 households

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The percentage of households in the United States that had a computer in 2014 = 85%

The size of the randomly selected sample in 2014, n = 200

The random variable representing the number of households that had a computer = C

Therefore, we have;

The probability of a household having a computer P = 85/100 = 0.85

Let

Therefore;

The mean (expected) number in the sample, μₓ, = E(x) = n × P is given as follows;

μₓ = 200 × 0.85 = 170

The mean of C = μₓ = 170

The variance, σ² = n × P × (1 - P) = 200 × 0.85 × (1 - 0.85) = 25.5

Therefore;

The standard deviation, σ = √(σ²) = √(25.5) ≈ 5.05

The standard deviation of C, σ ≈ 5 households (we round (down) to the nearest whole number)

Maru [420]
In 1)

Line 1 has following coordinates.
(0,0) ; (1,-2) ; (2,-4)

Line 2 has following coordinates.
(0,0) ; (1,0.5) ; (2,1)

Line 3 has following coordinates.
(0,1) ; (1,1.5) ; (2,2)

If you'll draw the lines, you'll observe that Line 1 is perpendicular to Line 2 and Line 3 and Line 2 and Line 3 are parallel to each other.

So,
Option D will be correct.
