Answer:

y=-x/2

Step-by-step explanation:

m=(4-1)/(-8-(-2))

m=3/-6

m=-1/2

b=y-mx

b=1-(-1/2*(-2))

b=1-1

b=0

y=-x/2

Find the inverse function
Alex

The inverse of this function is f(x) = \frac{3x + 15}{4}


To find the inverse of any function, start by switching the x and f(x) term. Then solve for the new f(x). The result will be the inverse function. The step-by-step process is below for you.


f(x) = \frac{-15 + 4x}{3} ----> Switch the x and f(x)


x = \frac{-15 + 4f(x)}{3} ----> Muliply both sides by 3


3x = -15 + 4f(x) ----> Add 15 to both sides


3x + 15 = 4f(x) ----> Divide both sides by 4.


f(x) = \frac{3x + 15}{4}

A newsgroup is interested in constructing a 90% confidence interval for the proportion of all Americans who are in favor of a ne
Leto [7]

Answer:

The 90% confidence interval for the proportion of all Americans who are in favor of a new Green initiative is (0.6247, 0.6923).

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of \pi, and a confidence level of 1-\alpha, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

In which

z is the z-score that has a p-value of 1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}.

Of the 533 randomly selected Americans surveyed, 351 were in favor of the initiative.

This means that n = 533, \pi = \frac{351}{533} = 0.6585

90% confidence level

So \alpha = 0.1, z is the value of Z that has a p-value of 1 - \frac{0.1}{2} = 0.95, so Z = 1.645.

The lower limit of this interval is:

\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.6585 - 1.645\sqrt{\frac{0.6585*0.3415}{533}} = 0.6247

The upper limit of this interval is:

\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.6585 + 1.645\sqrt{\frac{0.6585*0.3415}{533}} = 0.6923

The 90% confidence interval for the proportion of all Americans who are in favor of a new Green initiative is (0.6247, 0.6923).

What is one of the solutions to the following system of equations? y2 x2 = 53 y − x = 5 (−10, −5) (−7, −2) (7, 2) (5, 10).
Aliun [14]

The solution of the system of equation is (-7, -2).

<h2>Given</h2>

The system of the equations;

\rm y^2 + x^2 = 53 \\\\y -x = 5

From equation 1

\rm  y -x=5\\\\y = 5+x

Substitute the value of y in equation 1

\rm y^2+x^2=53\\\\(5+x)^2+x^2=53\\\\25+x^2+10x+x^2=53\\\\2x^2+10x+25-53=0\\\\2 x^2 + 10x - 28 = 0     \\\\Divide \ by \ 2 \ both \ side \ the \ equation\\\\x^2 + 5x - 14 = 0\\\\x^2-7x+2x-14=0\\\\x(x-7) + 2(x-7) =0\\\\(x-7) \ (x+2)=0\\\\x-7=0 \ \ x = 7\\\\x +2 =0 \ \ x=-2

The value of x= 2 is rejected because x = 2 not satisfy the equation.

Substitute 2 for the value of x in equation II

y − x = 5

y – 2 = 5

y = 5 +2

y = 7 (x =2, y =7) … Not included in the options

If x = -7

Substitute the value of x = -7 in the equation

\rm y -x=5\\\\y - (-7)=5\\\\y +7= 5\\\\y = 5-7\\\\y = -2

Hence, the solution of the system of equation is (-7, -2).

Consider the following cumulative probability distribution.
Marat540 [252]

The solution  P(x \leq 4),p{x= 3), p(2 \leq * \leq 4)  is mathematically given as

  • P(2 \leq X \leq 4)=0.84
  • P(X=3)= 0.17
  • P(2 < =X\leq 4)=0.53

<h3>What is the solution P(x \leq 4),p{x= 3), p(2 \leq * \leq 4)?</h3>

Generally, the equation for the Probability of P(X=3) is mathematically given as

b)

P(X=3) = P(X \leq 3)-P(X\leq 2)

Therefore

P(X=3)= 0.65-0.48

P(X=3)= 0.17

c)

P(2\leq X\leq 4) = P(X\leq 4)-P(X\leq 1)\\\\\\P(2\leq X\leq 4) = 0.84-0.31'

P(2 < =X\leq 4)=0.53

a)

P(2\leq X\leq 4)=0.84
