Answer:

1. y = mx + b

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx + b

2) to find the y intercept you need to see what cross | ( 8,5)

3) 5 = m(8) = b

4) your slope is negative form the why it pointing

5) in this case your slope is 1/3

6) so now you can do your first step now that you have your (y,x) and slope (your solving for (b)

5 = 1/3 (8) + b

5 = 2.6 + b

5 = 2.6

-2.6

2.4 = b

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's use the two noted points for the calculation of slope:

Point 1: (2,8) and

Point 2: (6,4)

These become our (x1,y1) and (x2,y2).

------------------

We are trying to find a straight line equation of the form y = mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (the value of y when x = 0).

The slope:

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (4 - 8)/(6 - 2)

m = -4/4

m = -1

This gives us y = -1x + b

-----

Find b by entering either of the two given points. I'll use (6,4):

y = -1x + b

4 = -1(6) + b

b = 10

The equation is now y = -x + 10

--------

Find the value of y when x = 9:

y = -x + 10

y(9) = -(9) + 10

y(9) = 1

===========

This graph has a negative trend. Y decreases as x increases. It crosses the y axis at 10 when x is 0, and is only positive when x < 10. See the attached graph. Note that the graph of this line does not intersect many of the points on the original graph. They fall to either side, and are not consistent with a single line equation. The general, negative trend of slope - 1 trend holds true, however, so one might conclude errors may have been made in collecting the data. That is clearly due to your lab partner. [Well, you might try a better explanation]. A craftier person might calculate a standard deviation of error for the line, but that's next semester. It is worthwhile noting that a selection of two points other than the ones chosen above for calculating slope, would result in different equations. We selected the two points used here ((2,8) and (6,4)) because they are clearly noted on the chart.

Cone a has a radius of 6 units and a height of 4. Sphere B has the same volume as cone A. Find the Radius of sphere B.

postnew [5]

Answer:

3.3

Step-by-step explanation:

to determine the answer

calculate the volume of the cone

the volume of the cone = volume of the sphere

use the volume of the sphere to find the radius

Volume of a cone 1/3(nr^2h)

n = 22/7

r = radius

h = height

(1/3) x (22/7) x (6^2) x 4 = 150 .86

volume of sphere = (4/3) x (n) x (r^3)

n = 22/7

r = radius

(4/3) x radius^3 x (22/7) = 150.86

radius^3 = (3/4) x (7/22) x 150.86

radius^3 = 36

find the cube root of 36

radius = 3.3

Based on the number of voids, a ferrite slab is classified as either high, medium, or low. Historically, 5% of the slabs are cla

AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

(a) Name: Multinomial distribution

Parameters: $p_1 = 5\%$ $p_2 = 85\%$ $p_3 = 10\%$ $n = 20$

(b) Range: $\{(x,y,z)| x + y + z=20\}$

Parameters: $p_1 = 5\%$ $n = 20$

$(d)\ E(x) = 1$ $Var(x) = 0.95$

$(e)\ P(X = 1, Y = 17, Z = 3) = 0$

$(f)\ P(X \le 1, Y = 17, Z = 3) =0.07195$

$(g)\ P(X \le 1) = 0.7359$

$(h)\ E(Y) = 17$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$p_1 = 5\%$

$p_2 = 85\%$

$p_3 = 10\%$

$n = 20$

$X \to$ High Slabs

$Y \to$ Medium Slabs

$Z \to$ Low Slabs

Solving (a): Names and values of joint pdf of X, Y and Z

Given that:

$X \to$ Number of voids considered as high slabs

$Y \to$ Number of voids considered as medium slabs

$Z \to$ Number of voids considered as low slabs

Since the variables are more than 2 (2 means binomial), then the name is multinomial distribution

The parameters are:

$p_1 = 5\%$ $p_2 = 85\%$ $p_3 = 10\%$ $n = 20$

And the mass function is:

$f_{XYZ} = P(X = x; Y = y; Z = z) = \frac{n!}{x!y!z!} * p_1^xp_2^yp_3^z$

Solving (b): The range of the joint pdf of X, Y and Z

Given that:

$n = 20$

The number of voids (x, y and z) cannot be negative and they must be integers; So:

$x + y + z = n$

$x + y + z = 20$

Hence, the range is:

$\{(x,y,z)| x + y + z=20\}$

Solving (c): Names and values of marginal pdf of X

We have the following parameters attributed to X:

$p_1 = 5\%$ and $n = 20$

Hence, the name is: Binomial distribution

Solving (d): E(x) and Var(x)

In (c), we have:

$p_1 = 5\%$ and $n = 20$

$E(x) = p_1* n$

$E(x) = 5\% * 20$

$E(x) = 1$

$Var(x) = E(x) * (1 - p_1)$

$Var(x) = 1 * (1 - 5\%)$

$Var(x) = 1 * 0.95$

$Var(x) = 0.95$

$(e)\ P(X = 1, Y = 17, Z = 3)$

In (b), we have: $x + y + z = 20$

However, the given values of x in this question implies that:

$x + y + z = 1 + 17 + 3$

$x + y + z = 21$

Hence:

$P(X = 1, Y = 17, Z = 3) = 0$

$(f)\ P{X \le 1, Y = 17, Z = 3)$

This question implies that:

$P(X \le 1, Y = 17, Z = 3) =P(X = 0, Y = 17, Z = 3) + P(X = 1, Y = 17, Z = 3)$

Because

$0, 1 \le 1$ --- for x

In (e), we have:

$P(X = 1, Y = 17, Z = 3) = 0$

So:

$P(X \le 1, Y = 17, Z = 3) =P(X = 0, Y = 17, Z = 3) +0$

$P(X \le 1, Y = 17, Z = 3) =P(X = 0, Y = 17, Z = 3)$

In (a), we have:

$f_{XYZ} = P(X = x; Y = y; Z = z) = \frac{n!}{x!y!z!} * p_1^xp_2^yp_3^z$

So:

$P(X=0; Y=17; Z = 3) = \frac{20!}{0! * 17! * 3!} * (5\%)^0 * (85\%)^{17} * (10\%)^{3}$

$P(X=0; Y=17; Z = 3) = \frac{20!}{1 * 17! * 3!} * 1 * (85\%)^{17} * (10\%)^{3}$

$P(X=0; Y=17; Z = 3) = \frac{20!}{17! * 3!} * (85\%)^{17} * (10\%)^{3}$

Expand

$P(X=0; Y=17; Z = 3) = \frac{20*19*18*17!}{17! * 3*2*1} * (85\%)^{17} * (10\%)^{3}$

$P(X=0; Y=17; Z = 3) = \frac{20*19*18}{6} * (85\%)^{17} * (10\%)^{3}$

$P(X=0; Y=17; Z = 3) = 20*19*3 * (85\%)^{17} * (10\%)^{3}$

Using a calculator, we have:

$P(X=0; Y=17; Z = 3) = 0.07195$

So:

$P(X \le 1, Y = 17, Z = 3) =P(X = 0, Y = 17, Z = 3)$

$P(X \le 1, Y = 17, Z = 3) =0.07195$

$(g)\ P(X \le 1)$

This implies that:

$P(X \le 1) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)$

In (c), we established that X is a binomial distribution with the following parameters:

$p_1 = 5\%$ $n = 20$

Such that:

$P(X=x) = ^nC_x * p_1^x * (1 - p_1)^{n - x}$

So:

$P(X=0) = ^{20}C_0 * (5\%)^0 * (1 - 5\%)^{20 - 0}$

$P(X=0) = ^{20}C_0 * 1 * (1 - 5\%)^{20}$

$P(X=0) = 1 * 1 * (95\%)^{20}$

$P(X=0) = 0.3585$

$P(X=1) = ^{20}C_1 * (5\%)^1 * (1 - 5\%)^{20 - 1}$

$P(X=1) = 20 * (5\%)* (1 - 5\%)^{19}$

$P(X=1) = 0.3774$

So:

$P(X \le 1) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)$

$P(X \le 1) = 0.3585 + 0.3774$

$P(X \le 1) = 0.7359$

$(h)\ E(Y)$

Y has the following parameters

$p_2 = 85\%$ and $n = 20$

$E(Y) = p_2 * n$

$E(Y) = 85\% * 20$

$E(Y) = 17$

Sales= 768. comission rate= 4%. comission rate= ?

Marizza181 [45]

Answer: Commission rate = $30.72

Step-by-step explanation: For this problem we want to find the commission rate for sales that are a total of $768. The commission rate is 4%.

Convert 4% to a decimal. 4/100 = 0.04.

Now, multiply the sales by the decimal 0.04 to find the commission rate.

768 x 0.04 = 30.72, or $30.72 for the commission rate.
