The graph of a linear equation passes through (0, 5) and (-10, 0). What is the equation?

1 answer:

8 0

$(\stackrel{x_1}{0}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{5})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{-10}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{0}) ~\hfill \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise} {\stackrel{y_2}{0}-\stackrel{y1}{5}}}{\underset{run} {\underset{x_2}{-10}-\underset{x_1}{0}}}\implies \cfrac{-5}{-10}\cfrac{1}{2}$

$\begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{5}=\stackrel{m}{\cfrac{1}{2}}(x-\stackrel{x_1}{0}) \\\\\\ y-5-\cfrac{1}{2}x\implies y=\cfrac{1}{2}x+5$

Elimination method for -4x-2y=-12 4x+8y=-24

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

-4x-2y=-12

4x+8y=-24

--------------------------add

6y = -36

y = -6

Substitute y = -6 into -4x-2y=-12

-4x-2(-6) = -12

-4x + 12 = -12

-4x = -24

x = 6

Answer

x = 6 and y = -6

The lifetime of two light bulbs are modeled as independent and exponential random variables X and Y, with parameters lambda and

Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

$\bf h(x)=max(\lambda,\mu) e^{-max(\lambda,\mu) x}\;(x\geq0)$

Step-by-step explanation:

The PDF of X is

$\bf f(x)=\lambda e^{-\lambda x}\;(x\geq0)$

The PDF of Y is

$\bf g(x)=\mu e^{-\mu x}\;(x\geq0)$

The means of X and Y are respectively,

$\bf \displaystyle\frac{1}{\lambda}\;,\displaystyle\frac{1}{\mu}$

so we can see that the larger the parameter, the smaller the mean. Hence the PDF of Z = min(X, Y) is an exponential with the largest parameter of the two.

Therefore, the PDF of Z is

$\bf h(x)=max(\lambda,\mu) e^{-max(\lambda,\mu) x}\;(x\geq0)$

Question 3 Please. I'm really stuck :(

Stells [14]

Let ∠RTS=∠RST = a (say)
∠QUA=∠QSU= b(say)
then we know , at point S, a+40+b=180. so, a+b=140 we'll use this later.

consider trianglePQR, ∠P+∠Q+∠R=180
i.e.P+(180-2b)+(180-2a)=180
P+180+180-2(a+b)=180 ⇒P+180-2(a+b)=0 ⇒P=2(140)- 180=280-180=100
hence,answer is E
