If m(slope)=3, you can start to set up the equation as y=3x+b.
Using y=3x+8, you can plug in the given point being (8,5).
y=5
x=8
5=(3*8)+b
5=24+b
b=-19
The equation would be y=3x-19
Answer:
The chance of getting exactly 3 hits is = 0.20
Step-by-step explanation:
P.S - The exact question is -
As given,
F(x) = 0 , x < 1
0.30 , 1 ≤ x < 2
0.56 , 2 ≤ x < 3
0.76 , 3 ≤ x < 4
0.9 , 4 ≤ x < 5
1 , 5 ≤ x
Now,
f(x) = 0.30 , x = 1
0.56 - 0.30 = 0.26 , x = 2
0.76 - 0.56 = 0.20 , x=3
0.9 - 0.76 = 0.14 , x = 4
1 - 0.9 = 0.1 , x = 5
0, otherwise
Now,
The chance of getting exactly 3 hits is = f(x = 3) = 0.20
There are some missing details in the question. I found a similar question with some addition of details as follows:
The Sugar Sprinkles package contained 3/4 of a cup of the mix that needs to be mixed with 2 2/5 cups of flour, 2 1/4 cups of brown sugar, 3 3/8 and cups of water. The directions indicate to use 0.1125 of a cup of dough to make one cookie and 1 batch should make a total of Sugar Sprinkles cookies.
The Chocolate Turtle package contained 0.875 of a cup of the mix that needs to be mixed with 3.25 cups of flour, 2.5 cups of brown sugar, and 3.75 cups of water. The directions indicate to use 1/8 of a cup of dough to make one cookie and 1 batch should make a total of Chocolate Turtle cookies. The difference in the number of cookies of each type is _____
Answer:
Difference in number of cookies is 1
Step-by-step explanation:
This question is quite a tricky one. You have to be careful when answering it.
For sugar sprinklers, it contains 3/4 of a cup of the dough. For every 0.1125 of a cup, 1 cookie can be made.
So, 3/4 ÷ 0.1125
= 0.75 ÷ 0.1125
= 6.66667
Hence the most can be made is 6.
Note that we do not use the other volume because 0.1125 cup of a dough is the amount of cup from the original mix
The same applies to chocolate turtle cookies. It contains 0.875 of a cup. For every 1/8 of a cup can make 1 cookie.
0.875 ÷ 1/8 = 7
So the difference in the number of cookies is 7 - 6 = 1
