Answer:

The probability that in a randomly selected game, the player scored greater than 24 points is 0.0013 or 0.13%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

Mean = μ = 15 points

SD = σ = 3 points

For calculating probability for a data point, first of all we have to calculate the z-score of the value.

We have to find the probability of score greater than 24, then the z-score of 24 is:

z-score = (x-μ)/σ

z = (24-15)/3

z = 9/3

z = 3

Now we have to use the z-score table to find the probability of z<3 then it will be subtracted from 1 to find the probability of z>3

So,

P(z3) = 1 - P(z

Converting into percentage

0.0013 * 100 = 0.13%

Hence,

The probability that in a randomly selected game, the player scored greater than 24 points is 0.0013 or 0.13%

Answer:

a. dy/dx = -2/3

b. dy/dx = -28

Step-by-step explanation:

One way to do this is to assume that x and y are functions of something else, say "t", then differentiate with respect to that. If we write dx/dt = x' and dy/dt = y', then the required derivative is y'/x' = dy/dx.

a. x'·y^3 +x·(3y^2·y') = 0

y'/x' = -y^3/(3xy^2) = -y/(3x)

For the given point, this is ...

dy/dx = -2/3

___

b. 2x·x' +x^2·y' -2x'·y^3 -2x·(3y^2·y') + 0 = 2x' + 2y'

y'(x^2 -6xy^2 -2) = x'(2 -2x +2y^3)

y'/x' = 2(1 -x +y^3)/(x^2 +6xy^2 -2)

For the given point, this is ...

dy/dx = 2(1 -0 +27)/(0 +0 -2)

dy/dx = -28

_____

The attached graphs show these to be plausible values for the derivatives at the given points.

Which proportion can be used to show that the slope of JL is equal to the slope of MP
Ilya [14]

Answer:

See below and attached

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>As per the graph we have:</u>

  • Coordinates of JL are J(-7, 4), L(-4, 0)
  • Coordinates of MP are M(-10, 8), P(-1, -4)

<u>Slope formula is:</u>

  • m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

<u>Slope of JL:</u>

  • (0 - 4)/(-4-(-7)) = - 4 / 3

<u>Slope of MP:</u>

  • (-4 -8)/(-1- (-10)) = -12 / 9 = - 4/3
