<span>The sales tax in New Jersey is 6%. For a $16 book, what will the total cost be, including sales tax?
Solutions:
=> 16 dollars is the amount of book
=> 6% is the sales tax which is equals to (6% / 100% = 0.06)
Let’s follow the formula to get the total amount to be paid.
=> 16 dollars * .06 = .96 dollars
Now, let’s add this together:
=> .96 + 16 dollars = 16.96 dollars.</span>

Slope=-3 goes through (1,2) whats the equation

dedylja [7]

Hi student, let me help you out! :)

..............................................................................................................................................

We are asked to find the equation of the line, using the given information:

$\star~\mathrm{-3}$ , which is the slope

$\star~\mathrm{(1,2)}$ which is a point that the line contains

$\triangle~\fbox{\bf{KEY:}}$

The slope is the number before x, in the form $\mathtt{y=mx+b}$ .

Since "m" is the slope, and we're given what the slope is, we can substitute -3 for m:

$\dag~\mathtt{y=-3x+b}$

Now, we need to find the y intercept, "b", of the line.

Here's how it's done:

Remember the point that the line contains, (1,2)?

Well, its y-coordinate is 2; so what we do is substitute 2 for y:

$\dag~\mathtt{2=-3x+b}$

Also, its x-coordinate is 1, so we substitute 1 for x:

$\dag~\mathtt{2=-3(1)+b}$

Now, solve for b:

$\dag~\mathtt{2=-3+b}$

Add 3 to both sides:

$\dag~\mathtt{2+3=b}$

Thus, we have

$\dag~\mathtt{5=b}$

Thus, the equation of the line is:

$\bigstar\underline{\boxed{\mathtt{y=-3x+5}}}$

Hope it helps you out! :D

32% of college students say they use credit cards because of the rewards program. You randomly select 10 college students and a

Tems11 [23]

Answer:

a) $P(X=2)=(10C2)(0.32)^2 (1-0.32)^{10-2}=0.211$

b) $P(X> 2)=1-P(X\leq 2)=1-[0.0211+0.0995+0.211]=0.668$

c) $P(2 \leq x \leq 5)=0.211+0.264+0.218+0.123=0.816$

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Previous concepts

The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".

2) Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable of interest, on this case we now that:

$X \sim Binom(n=10, p=0.32)$
