This Table Gives A Few (x, Y) Pairs Of A Line In The Coordinate Plane. What Is The X-intercept Of The

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x=-14

Step-by-step explanation:

The x-intercept of a line is the value of x that makes y=0.

A line can be expressed in its slope-intercept form:

y=mx+b

Once determined the equation of the line, the x-intercept can be calculated by setting y=0 and solving for x.

Let's find the slope of the line.

Suppose we know the line passes through two points A(x1,y1) and B(x2,y2). The slope can be calculated with the equation:

[tex]\displaystyle m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

Let's pick the first two points of the table (-94,24) (-74,18). The slope is:

[tex]\displaystyle m=\frac{18-24}{-74+94}=\frac{-6}{20}=-\frac{3}{10}[/tex]

The equation of the line is:

[tex]\displaystyle y=-\frac{3}{10}x+b[/tex]

Now use one of the points to find b, for example (-94,24):

[tex]\displaystyle 24=-\frac{3}{10}\cdot (-94)+b[/tex]

Operating:

[tex]\displaystyle 24=\frac{141}{5}+b[/tex]

Solving:

[tex]b=24-\frac{141}{5}=-\frac{21}{5}[/tex]

The complete equation of the line is:

[tex]\displaystyle y=-\frac{3}{10}x-\frac{21}{5}[/tex]

To find the x-incercept, set y=0 and solve:

[tex]\displaystyle 0=-\frac{3}{10}x-\frac{21}{5}[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle x=\frac{\frac{21}{5}}{-\frac{3}{10}}=-\frac{21}{5}\cdot \frac{10}{3}[/tex]

x=-14

A certain test preparation course is designed to help students improve their scores on the MCAT exam. A mock exam is given at the beginning and end of the course to determine the effectiveness of the course. The following measurements are the net change in 7 students' scores on the exam after completing the course: 37,12,12,17,13,32,23 Using these data, construct a 80% confidence interval for the average net change in a student's score after completing the course. Assume the population is approximately normal. Step 1 of 4 : Calculate the sample mean for the given sample data. Round your answer to one decimal place.

Answers

Answer:

The 80% confidence interval for the average net change in a student's score after completing the course is (15.4, 26.3).

Step-by-step explanation:

The net change in 7 students' scores on the exam after completing the course are:

S = {37 ,12 ,12 ,17 ,13 ,32 ,23}

Compute the sample mean and sample standard deviation as follows:

[tex]\bar x=\frac{1}{n}\sum x=\frac{1}{7}\times 146=20.857\\\\s=\sqrt{\frac{1}{n-1}\sum (x-\bar x)^{2}}}=\sqrt{\frac{1}{7}\times 622.8571}=10.189[/tex]

As the population standard deviation is not known, a t-interval will be formed.

Compute the critical value of t for 80% confidence interval and 6 degrees of freedom as follows:

[tex]t_{\alpha/2, (n-1)}=t_{0.20/2, (7-1)}=t_{0.10,6}=1.415[/tex]

*Use a t-table.

Compute the 80% confidence interval for the average net change in a student's score after completing the course as follows:

[tex]CI=\bar x\pm t_{\alpha/2, (n-1)}\times\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

     [tex]=20.857\pm 1.415\times\frac{10.189}{\sqrt{7}}\\\\ =20.857\pm 5.4493\\\\=(15.4077, 26.3063)\\\\\approx (15.4,26.3)[/tex]

Thus, the 80% confidence interval for the average net change in a student's score after completing the course is (15.4, 26.3).

How do I solve for x?

Answers

Answer:

We will use the thales's theorem to solve for x

Let ? be x

then, the other segment on the same line as x will be 20 - x since the line is 20 units long

According to thales's theorem:

"If a line is drawn parallel to one side of a triangle to intersect the other two sides in distinct points, the other two sides are divided in the same ratio"

Hence, we can write that,

9 / 3 = 20-x / x

3x = 20 -  x

4x = 20

x = 5 units

Hence, the length of the line segment marked as '?' is 5 units

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!! Which graph shows a slope of 2 and a y-intercept of -2?

Answers

Second one. No problem it

Answer:

The second graph  (where the line goes through the points -2 and 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

A y-intercept is where the line crosses the y axis. The line crosses the y-axis at -2.

Slope is the change in y over the change in x. From -2 to 1, the change in y is 2, it goes up 2, and the change in x is 1 because it goes up 1. Therefore the slope is 2/1 which can be simplified to 2.

Your teacher didn't put any xy axis on this grid. But I'm assuming that the vectors are coming from the origin (0,0)

If that is the case, then vector v = (-2,4) and vector u = (2,1)

Add the corresponding coordinates to get

v+u = (-2,4)+(2,1) = (-2+2,1+4) = (0,5)

The answer is therefore choice B

The general rule for adding vectors is

if u = (a,b) and v = (c,d), then u+v = (a+c, b+d)

Step-by-step explanation:

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation :

                    7*y-1-(3*y^2+y-1)=0

(7y - 1) -  ((3y2 +  y) -  1)  = 0  3.1     Pull out like factors :

  6y - 3y2  =   -3y • (y - 2)

Answer:

y = -21/2

Step-by-step explanation:

multiply both sides of the equation by 21 so it would be

7y+42=3y

move the terms

7y-3y=-42

collect like terms

4y=-42

divide both sides by four

y= -21/2

P(shipment accepted)=
b. What is the probability that this shipment will not be accepted?
P(shipment not accepted)=

Answers

Answer:

(a) 0.5282

(b) 0.4718

Step-by-step explanation:

It is provided that the shipment is accepted if not more than 1 of the 5 keyboards is defective. That is for the shipment to be acceptable there should be at most 1 defective .

It is also provided that the box selected has 6 defective keyboards.

So, the probability of selecting a defective keyboard is, p = 6/20.

Let X = number of defective keyboards.

The random variable X follows a binomial distribution with parameters n = 6 and p = 6/20.

(a)

Compute the probability that this shipment will be accepted as follows:

[tex]P(X\leq 1)=P(X=0)+P(X=1)[/tex]

               [tex]=[{5\choose 0}(\frac{6}{20})^{0}(1-\frac{6}{20})^{5}]+[{5\choose 1}(\frac{6}{20})^{1}(1-\frac{6}{20})^{4}]\\\\=0.16807+0.36015\\\\=0.52822\\\\\approx 0.5282[/tex]

Thus, the probability that this shipment will be accepted is 0.5282.

(b)

Compute the probability that this shipment will not be accepted as follows:

P (shipment not accepted) = 1 - P(shipment accepted)

                                          = 1 - 0.5282

                                          = 0.4718

Thus, the probability that this shipment will not be accepted is 0.4718.

Raoul make shell necklaces to sell at a craft fair. the supplies for each necklace cost $3.75. Raoul sells the necklaces for $11.25. what is the percent markup for a shell necklace?

Answers

Answer: The percent markup for a shell necklace = 200%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Cost price per necklace = $3.75

Selling price per necklace =  $11.25

Mark up = (Selling price -  Cost price )

= $ (11.25 -3.75 )

=$ 7.5

The percent markup for a shell necklace = [tex]\dfrac{\text{Mark up}}{\text{cost price}}\times100\%[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{7.5}{3.75}\times100\%\\\\=2\times100\%=200\%[/tex]

Hence, The percent markup for a shell necklace = 200%

The percent markup for a shell necklace is 200%.

Definition of markup

Markup can be defined as the rate at which the cost of a product is increased. The higher the markup, the higher the profit earned by a seller all things being equal.

Calculation of percentage markup

Percentage markup = (profit / cost price) x 100

Profit = $11.25 - $3.75 = $7.50

Percentage markup = ($7.50 / $3.75) x 100 = 200%
