To find slope, we must find the change in y values divided by the change in x values, also called the rise/run. This is modeled below:
Slope = m = (y1 - y2)/(x1-x2) = (6-(-3))/(1 - (-6)) = (6+3)/(1+6) = 9/7
We can check that this answer is correct by consulting the graph. The graph shows a positive correlation (means that the slope should be positive), and if you count the graph unit squares, you get that the graph moves up 9 squares and over 7 squares between the two points shown, letting us know we got the right answer.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
P=0.147
Step-by-step explanation:
As we know 80% of the trucks have good brakes. That means that probability the 1 randomly selected truck has good brakes is P(good brakes)=0.8 . So the probability that 1 randomly selected truck has bad brakes Q(bad brakes)=1-0.8-0.2
We have to find the probability, that at least 9 trucks from 16 have good brakes, however fewer than 12 trucks from 16 have good brakes. That actually means the the number of trucks with good brakes has to be 9, 10 or 11 trucks from 16.
We have to find the probability of each event (9, 10 or 11 trucks from 16 will pass the inspection) . To find the required probability 3 mentioned probabilitie have to be summarized.
So P(9/16 )= C16 9 * P(good brakes)^9*Q(bad brakes)^7
P(9/16 )= 16!/9!/7!*0.8^9*0.2^7= 11*13*5*16*0.8^9*0.2^7=approx 0.02
P(10/16)=16!/10!/6!*0.8^10*0.2^6=11*13*7*0.8^10*0.2^6=approx 0.007
P(11/16)=16!/11!/5!*0.8^11*0.2^5=13*21*16*0.8^11*0.2^5=approx 0.12
P(9≤x<12)=P(9/16)+P(10/16)+P(11/16)=0.02+0.007+0.12=0.147
We assume the two numbers are x and (x+1)
so x^2+(x+1)^2=421
x^2+(x^2+2x+1)=421
2x^2+2x-420=0
According to the formula of quadratic
x=14 or-15
cuz we know the two numbers are integers
so x=14
therefore the other number is 15
To make sure that's correct
14^2+15^2=421
Hope that helps you!!
Let the total amount of pages be t
t=30+1/8t+2/8t
now simplify
t=30+3/8t
5/8t=30
divide 30 by 5
1/8=6
now you know 1/8 of the book is 6 pages which means the whole book has 48 pages.
Answer:
a = 1.95
Step-by-step explanation:
40a - 61 = 17
40a - 61 + 61 = 17 + 61
40a = 78
40a / 40 = 78 / 40
a = 1.95
