Answer:

Not a discrete probability distribution

Step-by-step explanation:

In order for a distribution to be a discrete probability distribution, the sum of the probabilities must be equal to 1:

Since 0.29 + 0.05 + 0.26 = 0.60, then it is not a discrete probability distribution

What is the Slope and y intercept

Inessa [10]

Answer:

The slope is .075 and the y intercept is -.125

Step-by-step explanation:

8y = .2(3x -5)

Distribute the .2

8y = .6x - 1

Divide by 8

8y/8 = .6x/8 -1/8

y = .075x -.125

This is in slope intercept form y= mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept.

The slope is .075 and the y intercept is -.125

The hypotenuse of a right triangle has endpoints A(4, 1) and B(–1, –2). On a coordinate plane, line A B has points (4, 1) and (n

GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

$(-1,1),(4,-2)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The hypotenuse of a right triangle has endpoints A(4, 1) and B(–1, –2).

To find: coordinates of vertex of the right angle

Solution:

Let C be point $(x,y)$

Distance between points $(x_1,y_1),(x_2,y_2)$ is given by $\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

$AC=\sqrt{(x-4)^2+(y-1)^2}\\BC=\sqrt{(x+1)^2+(y+2)^2}\\AB=\sqrt{(4+1)^2+(1+2)^2}=\sqrt{25+9}=\sqrt{34}$

ΔABC is a right angled triangle, suing Pythagoras theorem (square of hypotenuse is equal to sum of squares of base and perpendicular)

$34=\left [ (x-4)^2+(y-1)^2 \right ]+\left [ (x+1)^2+(y+2)^2 \right ]$

Put $(x,y)=(-1,1)$

$34=\left [ (-1-4)^2+(1-1)^2 \right ]+\left [ (-1+1)^2+(1+2)^2 \right ]\\34=25+9\\34=34$

which is true. So, $(-1,1)$ can be a vertex

Put $(x,y)=(4,-2)$

$34=\left [ (4-4)^2+(-2-1)^2 \right ]+\left [ (4+1)^2+(-2+2)^2 \right ]\\34=9+25\\34=34$

which is true. So, $(4,-2)$ can be a vertex

Put $(x,y)=(1,1)$

$34=\left [ (1-4)^2+(1-1)^2 \right ]+\left [ (1+1)^2+(1+2)^2 \right ]\\34=9+4+9\\34=22$

which is not true. So, $(1,1)$ cannot be a vertex

Put $(x,y)=(2,-2)$

$34=\left [ (2-4)^2+(-2-1)^2 \right ]+\left [ (2+1)^2+(-2+2)^2 \right ]\\34=4+9+9\\34=22$

which is not true. So, $(2,-2)$ cannot be a vertex

Put $(x,y)=(4,-1)$

$34=\left [ (4-4)^2+(-1-1)^2 \right ]+\left [ (4+1)^2+(-1+2)^2 \right ]\\34=4+25+1\\34=30$

which is not true. So, $(4,-1)$ cannot be a vertex

Put $(x,y)=(-1,4)$

$34=\left [ (-1-4)^2+(4-1)^2 \right ]+\left [ (-1+1)^2+(4+2)^2 \right ]\\34=25+9+36\\34=70$

which is not true. So, $(-1,4)$ cannot be a vertex

So, possible points for the vertex are $(-1,1),(4,-2)$
