The equation y = −3x + 7 represents the amount of water y left in a 7-gallon tub after x minutes. What is the slope of the line? What does the slope mean in this context?

Answers

Answer 1
The slope here is the -3. The slope in this context means how -3 gallons are gone after each minute. For example, after 1 minute, there would be 4 gallons left.

Hope this helps!!
Answer 2

The slope means in this context, the draining of water is 3 gallons per minute. Then the slope of the line will be negative 3.

What is a linear equation?

A relationship between two or more parameters that, when shown on a graph, produces a linear model. The degree of the variable will be one.

The linear equation is given as,

y = mx + c

Where m is the slope of the line and c is the y-intercept of the line.

The equation is given below.

y = −3x + 7, represents the amount of water y left in a 7-gallon tub after x minutes.

Then the slope of the line will be negative 3.

The slope means in this context, the draining of water is 3 gallons per minute.

1/4 to 3/12

8/12+3/12=11/12

Answer:

11/12

Step-by-step explanation:

hi! let's start off by finding the LCM to find a common denominator for these fractions. the LCM of 3 and 4 is 12. so, we can look at what we need to multiply each denominator by to get 12.

3*4 is 12 and 4*3 is 12, so we have to multiply the first fraction by 4/4 (which is equivalent to 1) and we have to multiply the second fraction by 3/3.

this becomes 8/12 and 3/12, which are equivalent to their original forms.

now, we can add these by adding the numerators and keeping the denominators the same.

(8+3)/12

What is mean by Triangle?

A triangle is a three sided polygon, which has three vertices and three angles which has the sum 180 degrees.

Given that,

In triangles ΔXYZ and ΔMPN

XY = MP and YZ = PN

XY=23 in. and MN=19 in.

Clearly

XY > MN

⇒ m ∠Y > m ∠P ...( since angle opposite to the greater side is greater )

And m ∠P = 85° ⇒ m ∠Y > 85°

Hence,

option (1) and option (2) are not correct as they are less than 85°.

Option 4 is also not correct as it cannot be possible in a triangle because 180° is the angle of a straight line.

Therefore, Option 3 should be the correct option correct option, 100° is a possible measure for m ∠Y.

In 2008 the Better Business Bureau settled 75% of complaints they received (USA Today, March 2, 2009). Suppose you have been hired by the Better Business Bureau to investigate the complaints they received this year involving new car dealers. You plan to select a sample of new car dealer complaints to estimate the proportion of complaints the Better Business Bureau is able to settle. Assume the population proportion of complaints settled for new car dealers is .75, the same as the overall proportion of complaints settled in 2008
a. Suppose you select a sample of 450 complaints involving new car dealers. Show the sampling distribution of .
b. Based upon a sample of 450 complaints, what is the probability that the sample proportion will be within .04 of the population proportion?
c. Suppose you select a sample of 200 complaints involving new car dealers. Show the sampling distribution of .
d. Based upon the smaller sample of only 200 complaints, what is the probability that the sample proportion will be within .04 of the population proportion?
e. As measured by the increase in probability, how much do you gain in precision by taking the larger sample in part (b)?

Answers

Answer:

a) the sampling distribution of the sample proportion is approximately normal with mean 0.75 and standard deviation is 0.0204

b) the probability that the sample proportion will be within 0.04 of the population proportion is 0.95

c) sampling distribution of the sample proportion is approximately normal with mean 0.75 and standard deviation is 0.03061

d) the probability that the sample proportion will be within 0.04 of the population proportion is 0.8088

e) gain in precision is 0.1402.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Let p represent the

Given that

population proportion of complaints settled for new car dealers p = 0.75.

and n = 450

mean of the sampling distribution of the sample proportion is the population proportion p

i.e  up° = p

mean of the sampling distribution of the sample proportion p° = 0.75

so standard error of the proportion is;

αp° = √(p( 1-p ) / n)

we substitute

αp° = √(0.75 ( 1-0.75 ) / 450)

=√(0.1875 / 450

= √0.0004166

= 0.0204

therefore the sampling distribution of the sample proportion is approximately normal with mean 0.75 and standard deviation is 0.0204

b)

(p° - p) is within 0.04

so lets consider

p ( -0.04 ≤ p° - p ≤ 0.04) = p ( ( -0.04/√(0.75 ( 1-0.75 ) / 450)) ≤ z ≤ ( 0.04/√(0.75 ( 1-0.75 ) / 450))

= p( -0.04/0.0204 ≤ z ≤ 0.04/0.0204)

= p ( -1/96 ≤ z ≤ 1.96 )

= p( z < 1.96 ) - p( z < -1.96 )

now from the S-normal table,

area of the right of z = 1.96 = 0.9750

area of the left of z = - 1.96 = 0.0250

p( -0.04 ≤ p°- p ≤ 0.04)  =  p( z < 1.96 ) - p( z < -1.96 ) = 0.9750 - 0.0250

= 0.95

therefore the probability that the sample proportion will be within 0.04 of the population proportion is 0.95

c)

population proportion of complaints settled for new car dealers p = 0.75.

n = 200

mean of the sampling distribution of the sample proportion p°.

i.e up° = p

mean of the sampling distribution of the sample proportion p° = 0.75

Sampling distribution of the sample proportion p is determined as follows

αp° = √(p( 1-p ) / n)

we substitute

αp° = √(0.75 ( 1-0.75 ) / 200)

=√(0.1875 / 200

= √0.0009375

= 0.03061

therefore sampling distribution of the sample proportion is approximately normal with mean 0.75 and standard deviation is 0.03061

d)

(p° - p) is within 0.04

so lets consider

p ( -0.04 ≤ p° - p ≤ 0.04) = p ( ( -0.04/√(0.75 ( 1-0.75 ) / 200)) ≤ z ≤ ( 0.04/√(0.75 ( 1-0.75 ) / 200))

= p( -0.04/0.03061≤ z ≤ 0.04/0.03061)

= p ( -1.31 ≤ z ≤ 1.31 )

= p( z < 1.31 ) - p( z < -1.31 )

now from the S-normal table,

area of the right of z = 1.31 = 0.9049

area of the left of z = - 1.31 = 0.0951

p( -0.04 ≤ p°- p ≤ 0.04)  =  p( z < 1.31 ) - p( z < -1.31 ) = 0.9049 - 0.0951

= 0.8098

therefore the probability that the sample proportion will be within 0.04 of the population proportion is 0.8088

e)  

From b), the sample proportion is within 0.04 of the population proportion; with the sample of 450 complaints involving new car dealers is 0.95.

sample proportion is within 0.04 of the population proportion; with the sample of 200 complaints involving new car dealers is 0.8098.

measured by the increase in probability, gain in precision occurs by taking the larger sample in part (b)

i.e

Gain in precision will be;

0.9500 − 0.8098

= 0.1402

therefore  gain in precision is 0.1402.

the answer is b, y=3x-1. so the equation you’re looking at is y=mx+b, with m being slope and b being the y intercept. it says the slope is equal to 3. to find the y intercept, use the slope to find the other points. using the slope, you can find that the point of the y intercept is (0, -1), so your equation would be 3x-1. i hope this helps!!

To reduce laboratory​ costs, water samples from five public swimming pools are combined for one test for the presence of bacteria. Further testing is done only if the combined sample tests positive. Based on past​ results, there is a 0.007 probability of finding bacteria in a public swimming area. Find the probability that a combined sample from five public swimming areas will reveal the presence of bacteria. Is the probability low enough so that further testing of the individual samples is rarely​ necessary?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

The numbers of the possible public swimming pools are 5

From past results, we have 0.007 probability of finding bacteria in a public swimming area.

In the public swimming pool, the probability of not finding bacteria = 1 - 0.007

= 0.993

Thus;

Probability of combined   =  Probability that at least one public

sample with bacteria           swimming area have bacteria

Probability of combined sample with bacteria  = 1 - P(none out of 5 has          

                                                                                bacteria)

   

Probability of combined sample with bacteria = 1 - (0.993)⁵        

= 1 - 0.9655

= 0.0345

Thus, the probability that the combined sample from five public swimming areas will show the presence of bacteria is 0.0345

From above, the probability that the combined sample shows the presence of bacteria is 0.0345 which is lesser than 0.05.

Thus, we can conclude that;  Yes, the probability is low enough that there is a need for further testing.
