Answer:

(-3,3).

Step-by-step explanation:

The given points are (-6,-3) and (-1,7).

We need to find the coordinates of the point, which divides the line segment in 3:2.

Section formula: If a point divides a line in m:n, then the coordinates of point are

\left(\dfrac{mx_2+nx_1}{m+n},\dfrac{my_2+ny_1}{m+n}\right)

Using this formula, we get

\left(\dfrac{3(-1)+2(-6)}{3+2},\dfrac{3(7)+2(-3)}{3+2}\right)

\left(\dfrac{-3-12}{5},\dfrac{21-6}{5}\right)

\left(\dfrac{-15}{5},\dfrac{15}{5}\right)

\left(-3,3\right)

Therefore, the coordinates of required point are (-3,3).

The equation below describes a proportional relationship between x and y. What is the constant of proportionality? Y=4/7x
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

the given equation is y=4/7x

reciprocating both sides you get y/x =7/4

now x and y are directly porportional to each other so

x=ky where k is the constant

or x/y=k ......................(2)

equating 1 and 2

k=7/4

According to the American Community Survey, 27% of residents of the United States 25 years old or older had earned a bachelor de
oksian1 [2.3K]

a. The reason why this question is a binomial experiment is based on the fact that it is made up of an independent sample, it has a number that is fixed and a probability.

Each event is made up of two outcomes and they are random with the same success rate.

<h3>b. How to solve probability that exactly 5 had a bachelor</h3>

we have the following data n = 12, p = 0.27 and k = 5

We have to use the function to solve electronically

binompdf(n,p,k)

input the values

= binompdf(12,0.27,5)

This gives us

= 0.1255

<h3>(C) Probability that fewer than 5 have bachelor</h3>

We use the formula below

= binompdf(12,0.27,5-1)

This is = 0.7984

D. Probability of at least 5

1 - probability of fewer than 5

= 1 - 0.7984

= 0.2016

How to solve for the Mean = n*p

n = 12 , p = 0.27

Mean = 12*0.27 = 3.24

and

standard deviation = √npq

n = 12, p = 0.27 , q = 1- 0.27

= 0.73

sd = √12*.27*.73

= 1.54
