X and y are in direct proportion, when x is 8, y is 12. Which of the following is not a

Mathematics

Answer:

d.

Step-by-step explanation:

if x varies directly as y,

x = ky

8 = 12k

12k = 8

k = 8/ 12

k = 2/3,

x = 2/3 y

now substitute the value of any of the numbers of each pair, and check if it works:

for e.g, find x when y = 15

x = 2/3y

x = 2/3 × 15

x = 10

since you obtain x = 10 when y = 15, the pair is a possible corresponding value of x and y. now do the same for the rest .

ii) x = 2/3y

x = 2/3 × 3, when y = 3

x = 2

hence, this is also a possible pair of x and y values.

iii) x = 2/3y

x = 2/3 × 9 when y = 9

x = 6

again, a possible pair of x and y values.

iv) x = 2/3y

x = 2/3 × 20 when y = 20

x = 40/3

here, when y = 20, x is not 15. it is 40/3.

thus, it can be determined that this is not a possible pair of x and y values.

please try to understand and have a great day!

Determine the slope
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

We use the formula y2-y1/x2-x1. The two points that I would use are (3,-1) and (-3,-3). This means that the equation will be -3--1/-3-3. This is equal to -2/-6. This is also equal to 1/3. Therefore, the slope is 1/3.

A. Student GPAs: Bob’s z-score z = + 1.71 μ = 2.98 σ = 0.36 b. Weekly work hours: Sarah’s z-score z = + 1.18 μ = 21.6 σ = 7.1 c.

Answer:

a) x = \mu +z*\sigma

And replacing we got:

x= 2.98 + 1.71*0.36 = 3.5956

b) x = \mu +z*\sigma

And replacing we got:

x= 21.6 + 1.18*7.1 = 29.978

c) x = \mu -z*\sigma

And replacing we got:

x= 150 - 1.35*40= 96

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Part a

Let X the random variable of interest for this case. We define the z score with the following formula:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

And for this case we know that z = 1.71, \mu = 2.98,\sigma = 0.36

If we solve for x from the z score formula we got:

x = \mu +z*\sigma

And replacing we got:

x= 2.98 + 1.71*0.36 = 3.5956

Part b

Let X the random variable of interest for this case. We define the z score with the following formula:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

And for this case we know that z = 1.18, \mu = 21.6,\sigma = 7.1

If we solve for x from the z score formula we got:

x = \mu +z*\sigma

And replacing we got:

x= 21.6 + 1.18*7.1 = 29.978

Part c

Let X the random variable of interest for this case. We define the z score with the following formula:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

And for this case we know that z = -1.35, \mu = 150,\sigma = 40

If we solve for x from the z score formula we got:

x = \mu -z*\sigma

And replacing we got:

x= 150 - 1.35*40= 96
