Answer:

y= 5/4x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey!

Slope-Intercept Form is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

First we can locate the y-intercept, or where the line passes through the y-axis.

The y-intercept is -2.

Substitute in the Slope-Intercept Form Equation:

y = mx -2

Pick another point and substitute its x and y values in this equation.

I chose (5,2) and substituted as 2 = m(5) -2

Isolate m:

Add 2 to both sides [Addition Property of Equality]

2 + 2 = 5m - 2 + 2

4 = 5m

Divide by 5 on both sides. [Division Property of Equality]

5m/5 = 4/5

m=4/5

Substitute in Slope-Intercept Form Equation.

The Equation in Slope Intercept Form is y = 4/5x - 2

Answer:

0.108

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the poisson probability process :

Where :

P(x =x) = (e^-λ * λ^x) ÷ x!

Given that :

Each batch of bread = 3 loaves

Each loaf = 15 slices

Total slice per batch = 15 * 3 = 45 slices

Number of raising added = 100

Average number of raisin per slice, λ = 100/45 = 20/9

Hence,

Probability that a randomly chosen slice has no raising :

P(x = 0) = (e^-λ * λ^x) ÷ x!

P(x = 0) = (e^-(100/45) * (100/45)^0) ÷ 0!

P(x = 0) = (0.1083680 * 1) / 1

P(x = 0) = 0.108

kramer

Answer:

about 2949 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The geometry of the situation can be modeled by a right triangle. The height of the cliff can be taken to be the side opposite the given angle, and the distance to the coyote will be the side adjacent to the given angle. The relation between these values is the trig function ...

Tan = Opposite/Adjacent

<h3>setup</h3>

Filling in the known values, we have ...

tan(6°) = (310 ft)/(distance to coyote)

<h3>solution</h3>

Multiplying by (distance to coyote)/tan(6°) gives ...

distance to coyote = (310 ft)/tan(6°) ≈ 310/0.105104 ft

distance to coyote ≈ 2949.453 ft

The coyote is about 2949 feet from the base of the cliff.
