Since the slope is -2 we know that m=-2. Now use the standard form of y=mx+b and plug in the coordinates (-8,2). We know y=2, x=-8, and m=-2. Therefore we get 2=-2(-8)+b. Now solve for b and you get -14. Therefore, the equation is y=-2x-14.
Hope this helped!

A polynomial is to be constructed that will touch the x axis at most 8 times. What is the minimum degree of the polynomial?

Harman [31]

The maximum number of roots to a polynomial of order n is n roots. Take the example of a quadratic (order 2) which can intersect the x-axis a maximum of 2 times, and similarly a cubic (order 3) 3 times maximum.

Hence for 8 intersections, minimum order = 8

Assume that the Poisson distribution applies and that the mean number of aircraft accidents is 9 per month. Find P(0), the prob

Ugo [173]

Answer: 0.0001

It is unlikely to have a month with no aircraft accidents .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Mean number of aircraft accidents = 9 per month

The Poisson distribution formula :-

$\dfrac{e^{-\lambda}\lambda^x}{x!}$ , where $\lambda$ is the mean of the distribution.

If X = the number of aircraft accidents per month, then the probability that in a month, there will be no aircraft accidents will be :-

$\dfrac{e^{-9}(9)^0}{0!}=0.000123409804087\approx0.0001$

Hence, the probability that in a month, there will be no aircraft accidents = 0.0001

Since this is less than 0.5 , therefor it is unlikely to have a month with no aircraft accidents .
