Think about the axis for a moment. You have the y-axis and the x-axis. The y-axis crosses the x-axis at y=0. Consequently the graph must also cross the x-axis when its equation has its y-value set to 0.

Likewise the graph will cross the y-axis when x=0

'~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Solving your question

To find the x-intercept set y=0 giving

- 2x  + 5(0) =  - 10 \\  - 2x =  - 1 |?|

Multiply both sides by ( -1) giving

2x = 10

Divide both sides by 2 giving

\frac{2}{2}  \times x =  \frac{10}{2}  \\

But \frac{2}{2} = 1 \:   \\ giving

<h3>x =  \frac{10}{2} \\</h3>

Answer:

2x-5y=10 in slope intercept form is y=2/5x-2. The x intercept would be 5 and the y intercept would be -2. The slope is 2/5.

The average score of all golfers for a particular course has a mean of 75 and a standard deviation of 4. Suppose 64 golfers play
Vilka [71]

Answer:

0.0228 = 2.28% probability that the average score of the 64 golfers exceeded 76.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}.

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 75, \sigma = 4, n = 64, s = \frac{4}{\sqrt{64}} = 0.5

Find the probability that the average score of the 64 golfers exceeded 76.

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 64.

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

By the Central Limit Theorem

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

Z = \frac{76 - 75}{0.5}

Z = 2

Z = 2 has a pvalue of 0.9772

1 - 0.9772 = 0.0228

0.0228 = 2.28% probability that the average score of the 64 golfers exceeded 76.

16 factory workers made 40 pieces in a certain amount of time. How many workers are needed to make (1) 20, (2)25 and (3)100 piec
lorasvet [3.4K]

1. 40 units___16 workers

20 units___x= 8 workers

(20*16)/40=8

2. 40 units___16 workers

25 units___x= 10 workers

(25*16)/40=10

3. 40 units___16 workers

100 units___x= 40 workers

(100*16)/40=40
