rafael took 4 pumpkin pies to a family gatherig if he divides each pie into six equal-sized sliced how many slices can he serve

A line intersects the point (6,9) and (7,4). What is the slope intercept equation for this line?

taurus [48]

Answer:

y = -5x + 39

Step-by-step explanation:

Plug either ordered pair into the Point-Slope Formula FIRST, y - y₁ = m(x - x₁), then convert to Slope-Intercept Form by moving whichever term is nearest to y, over to the right side of the equivalence symbol to get the above answer.

How do I figure out what 1/10 of 6000 is?

alisha [4.7K]

The way I like to figure out problems like this is to write it out like,

1/10 = x/6000
(One over ten equals x over 6000)

Then you find out how much you multiplied 10 by to get 6000. To do this you can divide 6000 by 10 getting 600. The rule "what you do to the bottom you have to do to top" in this equation. So since you multiplied the bottom by 600 you have to multiply the top by 600 as well. 600 times 1 is just 600.

So your answer is, 600 is 1/10 of 6000.

Hope this helps and isn't too confusing.

What is 4x -1/2 =x+ 7

gogolik [260]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Bringing like terms on one side

4x - x = 7 + 1/2

3x = 7.5

x = 7.5/3

x = 2.5

Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

a) 0.0885 = 8.85% probability that the mean annual return on common stocks over the next 40 years will exceed 13%.

b) 0.4129 = 41.29% probability that the mean return will be less than 8%

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the z-score of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ .

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

Mean 8.7% and standard deviation 20.2%.

This means that $\mu = 8.7, \sigma = 20.2$

40 years:

This means that $n = 40, s = \frac{20.2}{\sqrt{40}}$

(a) What is the probability (assuming that the past pattern of variation continues) that the mean annual return on common stocks over the next 40 years will exceed 13%?

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 13. So

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

By the Central Limit Theorem

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}$
