<span>In the equation of a straight line: y = mx + c, slope is denoted </span>

by the letter m.

$\it -2y = x-1|_{:(-2)} \Rightarrow y = -\dfrac{1}{2}x+\dfrac{1}{2} \Rightarrow m = -\dfrac{1}{2}$ <span>

The sum of m and n is 32, and the value of m is three times the value of n. what is the value of m and n?

inn [45]

Answer:

The correct set of equations is C.

Step-by-step explanation:

m + n = 32

m = 3n

We have 4n = 32, so n = 8 and m = 24.

In a semiconductor manufacturing process, three wafers from a lot are tested. Each wafer is classified as pass or fail. Assume t

Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

$P(X = 0) = 0.027$

$P(X = 1) = 0.189$

$P(X = 2) = 0.441$

$P(X = 3)= 0.343$

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability mass function P(X = x) is the probability that X happens x times.

When n trials happen, for each $x \leq n$ , the probability mass function is given by:

$P(X = x) = pe_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which p is the probability that the event happens.

$pe_{n,x},$ is the permutation of n elements with x repetitions(when there are multiple events happening(like one passes and two not passing)). It can be calculated by the following formula:

$pe_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!}$

The sum of all P(X=x) must be 1.

In this problem

We have 3 trials, so $n = 3$

The probability that a wafer pass a test is 0.7, so $p = 0.7$

Determine the probability mass function of the number of wafers from a lot that pass the test.

$P(X = 0) = (0.7)^{0}.(0.3)^{3} = 0.027$

$P(X = 1) = pe_{3,1}.(0.7).(0.3)^{2} = 0.189$

$P(X = 2) = pe_{3,2}.(0.7)^{2}.(0.3) = 0.441$

$P(X = 3) = (0.7)^{3} = 0.343$

ANSWER ASAP PLS 20 POINTS! Which graph represents the piecewise defined function? y= {3 if x<-2 0 if x=1 -1 if x>1

Otrada [13]

Answer:

It is the third option. (the one which has a black point at X=1, Y=1)

Step-by-step explanation:

For simplicity what you should do is, you should satisfy the second condition that is, y=0 if x=1.

Here only the third option is satisfying this condition.

Whenever there is is a white circle or a white point it means that the point does not satisfy the condition and the the function is not defined at that point. And the black point means that the circle is defined at that point and satisfies the condition.

Henceforth, the correct answer is the third option.
