Point slope form and standard form

Mathematics

The point slope form, , is useful in situations involving slope and the location of one or more points. The standard form, , is usually easier to use when we need to make algebraic calculations. When needs or knowledge change, we can convert an equation from one form into another.

The slope-intercept form (not asked for) is the y=mx+b form, where m is the slope and b is the y-value of the y-intercept (0,b).
This form only works if you have both the slope and y-intercept.

If you have the slope and some other point on the line, say (x1, y1), then the point slope form is:
y - y1 = m ( x - x1 )

So, if you have a slope of 7 and a point (2, -6), then your point-slope form would be:
y - (-6) = 7 ( x- 2) or y+6=7(x-2)

Now standard form is the Ax+By=C format. You can turn any slope-intercept equation or point-slope equation into that form by distributing everything out and getting the x’s and y’s to the left side. Often you’ll also make sure you don’t have any fractions.

Taking the last answer I had, y+6=7(x-2), I’d put this into standard form by distributing:
y+6=7(x-2)

y+6 = 7x - 14

Then move 7x to the left by subtracting and move 6 to the right by subtracting:

-7x + y = -20

Problem:
Molodets [167]

Answer:

a)

We know that:

a, b > 0

a < b

With this, we want to prove that a^2 < b^2

Well, we start with:

a < b

If we multiply both sides by a, we get:

a*a < b*a

a^2 < b*a

now let's go back to the initial inequality.

a < b

if we now multiply both sides by b, we get:

a*b < b*b

a*b < b^2

Then we have the two inequalities:

a^2 < b*a

a*b < b^2

a*b = b*a

Then we can rewrite this as:

a^2 < b*a < b^2

This means that:

a^2 < b^2

b) Now we know that a.b > 0, and a^2 < b^2

With this, we want to prove that a < b

So let's start with:

a^2 < b^2

only with this, we can know that a*b will be between these two numbers.

Then:

a^2 < a*b < b^2

Now just divide all the sides by a or b.

if we divide all of them by a, we get:

a^2/a < a*b/a < b^2/a

a < b < b^2/a

In the first part, we have a < b, this is what we wanted to get.

Another way can be:

a^2 < b^2

divide both sides by a^2

1 < b^2/a^2

Let's apply the square root in both sides:

√1 < √( b^2/a^2)

1 < b/a

Now we multiply both sides by a:

a < b

Sever21 [200]

Answer:

A sampling distribution of the sample proportion with n = 20 and p = 0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

The probability of tails of a weighted coin, p=0.8

n=20

We have to find the type of distribution is simulated if this procedure repeated 75 times .

Random variable is a proportion of number of tails therefore, type of distribution is   sampling distribution of the sample proportion.

We have n=20 and p=0.8

Hence, we can say that type of distribution is simulated is given by

A sampling distribution of the sample proportion with n = 20 and p = 0.8
