pickupchik [31]3 years ago

Answer:

The equation of the line is y = -\frac{1}{3}x - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line:

The equation of a line has the following format:

y = mx + b

In which m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Slope of - 1/3

This means that m = -\frac{1}{3}

So

y = -\frac{1}{3}x + b

Through the point (-6, -6)

This means that when x = -6, y = -6. So

y = -\frac{1}{3}x + b

-6 = -\frac{1}{3}(-6) + b

b + 2 = -6

b = -8

The equation of the line is y = -\frac{1}{3}x - 8

Motorola used the normal distribution to determine the probability of defects and the number
vovangra [49]

Answer:

a.P<x<9.85 orx>10.15)=0.3174, Total defects=317.4

b.p=0.0026,total defects=2.6

c.Less of the items produced will be classified as defects.

Step-by-step explanation:

a.The standard score,z, is esentially x reduced by process mean then divided my process standard deviation.

\mu=10,\sigma=0.15\\Therefore:-\\z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{9.85-10}{0.15}\approx-1.0\\z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{10.15-10}{0.15}\approx+1.0\\P(x10.15)=P(Z+1.0)\\=2P(Z

Total defects=Production*Probability

                      =0.3174*1000

                       =317.4

b. \mu=10,\sigma=0.05

therefore:-

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{9.85-10}{0.05}\approx-3.0\\z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{10.15-10}{0.05}\approx+3.0\\\\=P(x10.15)=P(Z+3.0)\\=2P(Z

Defects=Probability*Production

            =0.0026*1000

             =2.6

c.Reducing process variation results in a significant reduction in the number of unit defects.

What is the initial value of the function represented by this table?
lakkis [162]

Answer:

Option D. 5

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The initial value of the function is the y-intercept, so is the value of the function when the value of x is equal to zero

In this problem observing the table

For x=0

The value of y is equal to y=5

therefore

The initial value is 5
