I Need HELP, I'm Just A Dumb Kid From Minnesota, I Have No Clue What To Do...The Line Below Has A Slope

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The values of [tex]a[/tex] and [tex]b[/tex] are 6 and 4, respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Geometrically speaking, any line is represented by equation of the form:

[tex]y = m\cdot x + b[/tex] (1)

Where:

[tex]x[/tex] - Independent variable, dimensionless.

[tex]y[/tex] - Dependent variable, dimensionless.

[tex]m[/tex] - Slope, dimensionless.

[tex]b[/tex] - y-Intercept, dimensionless.

In addition, the slope is defined in terms of distinct known points. That is:

[tex]m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}[/tex] (2)

If we know that [tex](x_{1},y_{1})=(4,b)[/tex], [tex](x_{2}, y_{2}) = (a, 8)[/tex] and [tex]m = 2[/tex], then the slope is:

[tex]\frac{8-b}{a-4} = 2[/tex]

[tex]8-b = 2\cdot (a-4)[/tex]

[tex]8-b = 2\cdot a -8[/tex]

[tex]b = 16-2\cdot a[/tex]

There is more than one option. If we assume that [tex]a = 6[/tex], then [tex]b[/tex] is:

[tex]b = 16-2\cdot (6)[/tex]

[tex]b = 4[/tex]

The values of [tex]a[/tex] and [tex]b[/tex] are 6 and 4, respectively.

The midpoint of AB is M(6,-3). If the coordinates of A are (4, - 7), what are the
coordinates of B?

Answers

Answer:

(8,1)

Step-by-step explanation:

(8,1) you have to add do to the same to B

Pont B is located at coordinates at the line AB (8, 1)

What are coordinates?

A pair of numbers called coordinates are used to locate a point or a form in a two-dimensional plane. The x-coordinate and the y-coordinate are two numbers that define a point's location on a 2D plane.

Given, The midpoint of AB is M(6,-3). If the coordinates of A are (4, - 7)

From the general formula of midpoints of a line

coordinates of midpoint = ((x₂ + x₁)/2, (y₂ + y₁)/2)

where,

(x₁, y₁) are the coordinates of A

(x₂, y₂) are the coordinates of B

And in our case Coordinates of the midpoint are (6, -3)

Thus,

6 = (4 + x₂)/2

x₂ = 8

-3 = (-7 + y₂)/2

y₂ = 1

therefore, the coordinates of Pont B at line AB are (8, 1)

Solve the given system of equations utilizing either the substitution or addition method.

Answers

Answer:

Value of x=4 and y=-13/3

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve the systems of equations

[tex]5x+3y=7 \ and \ \frac{3}{2}x-\frac{3}{4}y =9\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

Solving using substitution method:

Let:

[tex]5x+3y=7---eq(1) \\ \frac{3}{2}x-\frac{3}{4}y =9\frac{1}{4}---eq(2)[/tex]

Find value of x from eq(1) and put in eq(2)

[tex]5x+3y=7\\5x=7-3y\\x=\frac{7-3y}{5}[/tex]

Put value of x in eq(2)

[tex]\frac{3}{2}(\frac{7-3y}{5}) -\frac{3}{4}y =\frac{37}{4}\\\frac{21-9y}{10} -\frac{3}{4}y =\frac{37}{4}\\Taking \ LCM\\\frac{21*2-9y*2-3y*5}{20} =\frac{37}{4}\\\frac{42-18y-15y}{20} =\frac{37}{4}\\42-33y=\frac{37}{4}*20\\42-33y=185\\-33y=185-42\\-33y=143\\y=\frac{143}{-33}\\y=-\frac{13}{3}[/tex]

Now, finding value of x by putting value of y in eq(1)

[tex]x=\frac{7-3y}{5}\\x= \frac{7-3(-\frac{13}{3}) }{5}\\x=\frac{7+13}{5}\\x=\frac{20}{5}\\x=4[/tex]

So, Value of x=4 and y=-13/3

A population grows exponentially at the rate of 1.35%. How long (in years) will it take the population to double?

Answers

Answer: Approximately 51 years.

Step-by-step explanation: A population grows by changing exponentially over time, which can be mathematically demonstrated as:

[tex]P=P_{0}e^{rt}[/tex]

where

P is the population after time

P₀ is initial population, when time = 0

r is a percentage rate of growth

t is time passed

In this case, we have to calculate the amount of time it has passed for a population to double, so [tex]P=2P_{0}[/tex]:

[tex]2P_{0}=P_{0}e^{0.0135t}[/tex]

[tex]e^{0.0135t}=2[/tex]

[tex]ln(e^{0.0135t})=ln2[/tex]

Using Logarithm Rule [tex]ln(e^{k})=k[/tex]:

[tex]0.0135t=0.693[/tex]

t = 51.34

For a population with rate of 1.35%, it will take approximately 51 years to double.

It is assumed that the test results for a class follow a normal distribution with a mean of 78 and a standard deviation of 36. If you know that a student's grade is greater than 72, what is the probability that it is greater than 84? What do I know? What do I want to find out? What do we expect the answer to be? How do I go from what I know to what I want to find? Does this answer seem reasonable?

Answers

Answer:

0.7143

- You know the minimum possible grade of the student

- You want to find out the probability that that grade which is greater than 72 is also greater than 84

- Expect the answer to be 0.7143

- The explanation/steps is given below

- The answer seems (and is) reasonable. You only created a new lower limit.

Step-by-step explanation:

Distribution Type: Normal

Mean: 78

Standard deviation: 36

Range of marks: [78 - 36], [78 + 36]  = [42 to 114]

If you know that a student's grade is greater than 72, what is the probability that it's greater than 84?

In this case, the full probability level is between 72 and the upper limit of 114 (instead of between 42 and 114). First, find the fraction of this probability.

[114 - 72] ÷ [114 - 42]  = 42/72  = 0.5833

So, the probability of a student's mark falling between 72 and 114 is 0.5833.

Now making this a whole interval, 114 - 72 = 42

What fraction of this interval of 42 will bear marks between 84 and 114?

[114 - 84]  = 30

30/42  = 0.7143

Because of the first part of the question "If you know (are sure) that a student's grade is greater than 72...", your answer stops at 0.7143, since 72 was used as the lower limit.

A meat inspector has randomly selected 30 packs of 95% lean beef. The sample resulted in a mean of 96.2% with a sample standard deviation of 0.8%. Calculate an upper prediction bound for the leanness of a new pack using a prediction level of 99%. Assume normality. The contents of seven similar containers of sulfuric acid are 9.8, 10.2, 10.4, 9.8,10.0, 10.2, and 9.6 liters. Find a 95% confidence interval for the mean contents of all such containers, assuming an approximately normal distribution.

Answers

Answer:

a

 The upper bound of the 99% prediction level is [tex] 98.2  [/tex]  

b

 The  95% confidence interval is [tex]9.7383 <  \mu < 10.2617 [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering first question

From the question we are told that

   The sample size is  n  =  30  

   The sample mean is  [tex]\= x = 96.2\%[/tex]

   The standard deviation is [tex]s = 0.8\%[/tex]

Generally the degree of freedom is mathematically represented as

        [tex]df = n - 1[/tex]

=>      [tex]df = 30 - 1[/tex]

=>      [tex]df = 29[/tex]

From the question we are told the confidence level is  99% , hence the level of significance is    

      [tex]\alpha = (100 - 99 ) \%[/tex]

=>   [tex]\alpha = 0.01[/tex]

Generally from the t distribution table the critical value  of   at a degree of freedom of is  

   [tex]t_{\alpha , 29} = 2.462[/tex]

Generally the  99%  prediction level is mathematically represented as

      [tex]\= x \pm [(t_{\alpha  , df }) * s * (\sqrt{1 + \frac{1}{ n} } )}] [/tex]

Generally the upper bound of the 99%  prediction level is mathematically represented as

      [tex]\= x + [(t_{\alpha  , df }) * s * (\sqrt{1 + \frac{1}{ n} } )}] [/tex]  

=>    [tex] 96.2 + (2.462 ) * 0.8 * (\sqrt{1 + \frac{1}{ 30} } )}] [/tex]  

=>    [tex] 98.2  [/tex]  

Considering second question

 Generally the sample is mathematically represented as

             [tex]\= x = \frac{\sum x_i}{n}[/tex]

=>           [tex]\= x = \frac{ 9.8 + 10.2 + \cdots +9.6 }{7}[/tex]  

=>           [tex]\= x = 10[/tex]    

Generally the standard deviation  is mathematically represented as

           [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{ \frac{ \sum ( x_ i - \= x)}{n-1} }[/tex]

=>        [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{ \frac{ ( 9.8 -10)^2 + ( 10.2 -10)^2 + \cdots + ( 9.6 -10)^2 }{7-1} }[/tex]

=>        [tex]\sigma = 0.283[/tex]

Generally the degree of freedom is mathematically represented as

      [tex] df =  n- 1 [/tex]

=>    [tex] df =  7- 1 [/tex]

=>    [tex] df =  6 [/tex]

From the question we are told the confidence level is  95% , hence the level of significance is    

      [tex]\alpha = (100 - 95 ) \%[/tex]

=>   [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex]

Generally from the t distribution table the critical value  of   at a degree of freedom of  is  

   [tex]t_{\frac{\alpha }{2} , 6 } =  2.447[/tex]

Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as  

      [tex]E = t_{\frac{\alpha }{2} , 6 } *  \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

=>    [tex]E =2.447*    \frac{0.283 }{\sqrt{7} }[/tex]

=>    [tex]E =0.2617[/tex]

Generally 95% confidence interval is mathematically represented as  

      [tex]\= x -E <  \mu <  \=x  +E[/tex]

=>   [tex]10 -0.2617 <  \mu < 10 + 0.2617[/tex]

=>   [tex]9.7383 <  \mu < 10.2617 [/tex]

A researcher wishes to estimate within $5 the average repair cost of for a refrigerator. If she wishes to be 90% confident, how large of a sample would be necessary if the population standard deviation is $15.50?

Answers

Answer:

The sample size 'n' = 26

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation:-

Given a researcher wishes to estimate within $5 the average repair cost of for a refrigerator

Given estimate "E" = $5

The  estimate within  the average is determined by

                [tex]E = \frac{Z_{0.10}S.D }{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

 Level of significance    ∝ = 90 % or 10%

                                            = 0.90 or o.10

Z₀.₁₀ = 1.645

                                 [tex]E = \frac{Z_{0.10}S.D }{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

                             [tex]5 = \frac{1.645 X15.50 }{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

                        √n =  [tex]\frac{25.49}{5} = 5.099[/tex]

Squaring on both sides , we get

                        n = 26

Conclusion:-

The sample size 'n' = 26

The population of a certain town is growing at a constant rate. Suppose the population is 1900 initially, and after 4 years the population is 2212. Which of these expresses the rate at which the population is increasing?

Answers

Answer:

The rate of change relates the change in population to the change in time.  The population increased by 2212−1900=312 people over the four-years.  To find the rate of change, divide the change in the number of people by the number of years.

2212−19004=3124

3124/4 =78

So the population increased by 78 people per year.

Because we are told that the population increased, we would expect the slope to be positive.  This positive slope we calculated is therefore reasonable.

Given that 3x – tan y = 4, what is dy/dx in terms of y?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\frac{dy}{dx}[/tex] = 3 cos² y ⇒ B

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - tan(y) = 4

∵ The differentiation of tan(y) with respect to x is sec² y · dy/dx

∵ The differentiation of 3x with respect to x is 3

∵ the differentiation to 4 with respect to x is 0

∴ d/dx [3x - tan(y) = 4] is 3 - sec² y · dy/dx = 0

3 - sec²(y) · dy/dx = 0

→ Subtract 3 from both sides

∴ - sec² y · dy/dx = -3

→ Divide both sides by -1

∴ sec² y · dy/dx = 3

→ Divide both sides by sec²(x)

∴ [tex]\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{3}{sec^{2}y}[/tex]

→ Remember [tex]\frac{1}{secy}[/tex] = cos y

∵ [tex]\frac{1}{sec^{2}y}[/tex] = cos² y

∴  [tex]\frac{3}{sec^{2}y}[/tex] = 3 cos² y

[tex]\frac{dy}{dx}[/tex] = 3 cos² y

dy/dx of 3x – tan y = 4 in terms of y is;

dy/dx = 3cos²y

We are given;

3x - tan y = 4

Let's differentiate in terms of y to get;

3 - sec²y(dy/dx) = 0

This is because the derivative of tan y in terms of y is sec²y(dy/dx).

Thus, using addition property of equality, we have;

3 = sec²y(dy/dx)

Now, in trigonometric ratios;

sec y = 1/cos y

Thus;

sec²y = 1/cos²y

Therefore;

3 = (1/cos²y) (dy/dx)

Thus;

dy/dx = 3cos²y
