Answer:

The answer is

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line given two points can be found by using the formula

$m = \frac{ y_2 - y _ 1}{x_ 2 - x_ 1} \\$

where

(x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) are the points

From the question the points are

(-4, 2) and (6, 8)

The slope is

$m = \frac{8 - 2}{6 + 4} = \frac{6}{10} = \frac{3}{5} \\$

We have the final answer as

$\frac{3}{5} \\$

A batch of 40 semiconductor chips is inspected by choosing a sample of 5 chips. Assume 10 of the chips do not conform to custome

butalik [34]

Answer:

a) 658008 samples

b) 274050 samples

c) 515502 samples

Step-by-step explanation:

a) How many ways sample of 5 each can be selected from 40 is just a combination problem since the order of selection isn't important.

So, the number of samples = ⁴⁰C₅ = 658008 samples

b) How many samples of 5 contain exactly one nonconforming chip?

There are 10 nonconforming chips in the batch, and 1 nonconforming chip for the sample of 5 be picked from ten in the following number of ways

¹⁰C₁ = 10 ways

then the remaining 4 conforming chips in a sample of 5 can be picked from the remaining 30 total conforming chips in the following number of ways

³⁰C₄ = 27405 ways

So, total number of samples containing exactly 1 nonconforming chip in a sample of 5 = 10 × 27405 = 274050 samples

c) How many samples of 5 contain at least one nonconforming chip?

The number of samples of 5 that contain at least one nonconforming chip = (Total number of samples) - (Number of samples with no nonconforming chip in them)

Number of samples with no nonconforming chip in them = ³⁰C₅ = 142506 samples

Total number of samples = 658008

The number of samples of 5 that contain at least one nonconforming chip = 658008 - 142506 = 515502 samples

Dominic is designing a new board game, and is trying to figure out all the possible outcomes. How many different possible outcom

oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

If he spins a spinner with 5 equal sections they have equally likely probability of 20%

If he rolls a fair die in the shape of pyramid with 4 sides each side has probability of 25%

If he rolls a fair die in the shape of cube with 6 sides each side has probability of 16.7

Total number of outcomes = 5 * 6 * 4 = 120

<h3>What is an intersecting lines?</h3>

A link is known to be intersecting if two or more lines are said to have cross one another in a given plane.

Note that the intersecting lines are known to be one that often share a common point, and it is one that can be seen on all the intersecting lines, and it is known to be the point of intersection.

Looking at the image attached, you can see how plane A and line c intersecting at all points on line c and also GM and GH and line CD and plane X as they are not intersecting

Therefore, The sketch answers to question 8, 9 and 10 is given in the image attached.
