Answer:

the answer is y=-3x+5

since it's parallel, the slope is the same. so m=-3

use point slope formula y-y1=m(x-x1) and plug in the slope and the point

y-2=-3(x-1)

y-2=-3x+3

y=-3x+5

Two of the most popular options on a certain type of new car are automatic transmission and built-in GPS. Suppose that 90% of al

padilas [110]

Answer:

0.95 = 95% probability that the next person to purchase this car will request at least one of automatic transmission or built-in GPS

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve this question treating these probabilities as Venn sets.

I am going to say that:

Event A: Requesting automatic transmission

Event B: Requesting built-in GPS

90% of all buyers request automatic transmission

This means that $P(A) = 0.9$

82% of all buyers request built-in GPS

This means that $P(B) = 0.82$

77% of all buyers request both automatic transmission and built-in GPS.

This means that $P(A \cap B) = 0.77$

What is the probability that the next person to purchase this car will request at least one of automatic transmission or built-in GPS

This is $P(A \cup B)$ , which is given by:

$P(A \cup B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A \cap B)$

So

$P(A \cup B) = 0.9 + 0.82 - 0.77 = 0.95$

0.95 = 95% probability that the next person to purchase this car will request at least one of automatic transmission or built-in GPS

A – If P(n,4) = 20 × P(n,2), determine the value of n.

Kaylis [27]

Answer:

P(n,4)÷P(n,2)

= (n-2)(n-3)

20 = 4 × 5 (two consecutive numbers)

(n-2)(n-3)=5×4

n-2=5

If x = –3 is the only x-intercept of the graph of a quadratic equation, which statement best describes the discriminant of the e

natita [175]

Equations don't really have x intercepts, functions or curves do. They're also known as the zeros of the function. When we set a function equal to zero we get an equation to solve, and the zeros of the function become the solutions or roots of the equation.

If a quadratic equation only has one root, that's a repeated root corresponding to a discriminant of zero.

In this example our equation is something like $2(x+3)^2=0$ , or expanded

$2x^2+12x + 18 = 0$

The discriminant $d=b^2-4ac$ here is

$d = 12^2 - 4(2)(18) = 0 \quad\checkmark$

Julie and Eric row their boat (at a constant speed) 55 miles downstream for 5 hours, helped by the

Archy [21]

Answer: C = 3 mph is the rate of the current.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!

<u />

<u>You can use the distance formula (d = rt) to solve this problem. </u>

Downstream trip: d = 55 miles, t = 5 hours, and r = R + C

R + C is their rowing speed (R) plus the rate of the current (C).

Upstream trip: d = 55 miles, t = 11 hours, and r = R - C

R - C is their rowing speed (R) minus the rate of the current (C).

Downstream: 55 mi. = (R + C)5 hrs. Divide both sides by 5: R + C = 11

Upstream: 55 mi. = (R - C)11 hrs. Divide both sides by 11: R - C = 5

<u>Calculations</u>

R + C = 11 Subtract C from both sides.

R = 11 - C Substitute this into: R - C = 5

(11 - C) - C = 5 Simplify and solve for C

11 - 2C = 5 Add 2C to both sides.

11 = 2C + 5 Subtract 5 from both sides.

6 = 2C Divide both sides by 2

C = 3 mph is the rate of the current.
