Answer:

[tex] x = 17 [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex] 2x + 7 = 3x - 10 [/tex] (alternate exterior angles are congruent when a transversal cuts across two straight lines)

[tex] 2x - 3x = -7 - 10 [/tex] (collecting like terms)

[tex] - x = -17 [/tex]

[tex] \frac{-x}{-1} = \frac{-17}{-1} [/tex] (dividing both sides by -1)

[tex] x = 17 [/tex]

Maggie bought a pound of bananas and 4 boxes of cereal for $10.11. If each box of cereal cost $2.40, what was the price of a pound of bananas?
$0.51
$0.61
$1.51
$2.91

Answers

Answer:

$0.51

Step-by-step explanation:

If each box of cereal is $2.40, $2.40 multiplied by 4 is $9.60. $10.11 is the total, so $10.11 - $9.60 = $0.51.

Can anyone help me solve for x and y

Answers

x = 24, y = 120

if you disagree tell me, I just substituted values.

Step-by-step explanation:

10. (6x - 7)° + (3x - 29)° = 180°

i.e they are co-interior angles:

6x + 3x - 7 - 29 = 180°

9x - 36° = 180°

9x = 216°

x = 24.

(6x - 7)° = (8y + 17)°

i.e they are vertically opposite angles;

but x = 24.

6(24) - 7 = 8y + 17

144 - 7 = 8y + 17

120 = 8y

y = 15

11. (9x + 25)° = (13x - 19)°

i.e they are corresponding angles;

25 + 19 = 13x - 9x

44 = 4x

x = 11

(13x - 19)° + (17y + 5)° = 180°

i.e they are adjacent angles;

but x = 11

13(11) - 19 +5 + 17y = 180

17y = 180 - 129

17y = 51

y = 3

What is the equation of the line in slope-intercept form? the line perpendicular to y = x + 2 through (-7, -8)​

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y=-x-15[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Point-slope formula: [tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex], where [tex](x_1, \ y_1)[/tex] are the coordinates of a point on the line, and [tex]m[/tex] is the slope of the line.

You are given a point that the line you are trying to find passes through, and a slope. The slope is less obvious than the point, but you can find the slope using the given information.

The line perpendicular to y = x + 2 will have the opposite reciprocal slope of this line. The slope of y = x + 2 is 1, so the opposite reciprocal of 1 is:

[tex]m=-\frac{1}{1} =-1[/tex]

Now that you have both a point and the slope of the line you are trying to find, you can substitute these values into the point-slope formula (Notice: the name of this formula contains both "point" and "slope").

Substitute [tex](-7, \ -8)[/tex] for [tex](x_1,\ y_1)[/tex] and [tex]m=-1[/tex] into the point-slope formula.

[tex]y-(-8)=-1(x-(-7))[/tex]

Simplify this equation.

[tex]y+8=-1(x+7)[/tex]

Distribute -1 inside the parentheses.

[tex]y+8=-x-7[/tex]

Subtract 8 from both sides of the equation.

[tex]y=-x-15[/tex]

This line is in slope-intercept form ([tex]y=mx+b[/tex]), so we are done.

g The average lifespan for a certain type of vehicle is 8 years and follows an exponential distribution. A lot contains 200 of these vehicles, brand new. What is the probability that 50 or more of them fail in the first 2 years

Answers

Answer:

The probability is [tex]P(A \ge 50 ) = 0.14321[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The average life span is  [tex]\pi = 8[/tex]

The sample size is n =  200

Generally we are told that average lifespan for a certain type of vehicle follows an exponential distribution

i.e  

             [tex]X \~ \ \ \ exp(8)[/tex]

Gnerally the probability distribution function for exponential distribution is

       [tex]f(x) = \left \{ {{\lambda * e^{-\lambda * x }\ \ \ x\ge 0 } \atop {0 \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ x < 0}} \right.[/tex]

Now [tex]\lambda[/tex] is the  constant which is evaluated as

      [tex]\lambda = \frac{1}{\pi}[/tex]

=>   [tex]\lambda = \frac{1}{8}[/tex]

=>   [tex]\lambda = 0.125[/tex]

Generally the that the vehicles will fail in less than 2 years is  mathematically represented as

         [tex]P(X \le 2 )= p= \int\limits^2_0 {\lambda e^{- \lambda * x} } \, dx[/tex]

        [tex]P(X \le 2 )= p= [ {0.125 * - \frac{1}{0.125 } e^{- 0.125 * x} } ]|\left 2 } \atop {0}} \right.[/tex]

       [tex]P(X \le 2 )= p= [ {0.125 * - \frac{1}{0.125 } e^{- 0.125 * 2} } ] - [ {0.125 * - \frac{1}{0.125 } e^{- 0.125 * 0} } ][/tex]

     [tex]P(X \le 2 )= p= -0.77880 + 1[/tex]

     [tex]P(X \le 2 )= p= 0.2212[/tex]

Generally the probability that the vehicle will fail in the first 2 years follows a binomial  distribution  with the mean evaluated as

         [tex]\mu = n * p[/tex]

=>      [tex]\mu = 200 * 0.2212[/tex]

=>      [tex]\mu = 44.24[/tex]

The standard deviation is

       [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{np(1 - p)}[/tex]    

      [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{200 * 0.2212 (1 - 0.2212)}[/tex]  

      [tex]\sigma = 5.86[/tex]

Using normal approximation of binomial  distribution the  probability that 50 or more of them fail in the first 2 years is mathematically represented as

   [tex]P(A \ge 50 ) = 1 - P(A < 50 )[/tex]

Applying continuity correction

    [tex]P(A \ge 50.5 ) = 1 - P(A < 50.5 )[/tex]

Here

    [tex]P(A < 50.5 ) = P(\frac{A - \mu }{\sigma} < \frac{50 - 44.24}{5.87} )[/tex]

Generally  

       [tex]\frac{A - \mu }{\sigma} = Z (The \ standardized \ value \ of A )[/tex]

=> [tex]P(A < 50.5 ) = P( Z < 1.0664 )[/tex]

From the z-table the probability value  of  ( Z  <  1.0664   ) is  

     [tex]P( Z < 1.0664 ) = 0.85679[/tex]

So  

   [tex]P(A \ge 50 ) = 1 - 0.85679[/tex]

=> [tex]P(A \ge 50 ) = 0.14321[/tex]

Passage 1: Excerpt from Will Yellow School Buses Soon Become Rolling Ads?1 Tight school budgets could soon translate into Missouri school districts selling ad space on yellow school buses.2 Missouri state Rep. T.J. Berry, R-Kearney, says his billHB 224isnt a cure-all by any stretch. But legalizing ads inside and outside the buses would give school districts one additional way to raise money in these tough times.3 Every single school district has had to deal with budget concerns, Berry said last week. And generally speaking, the way they have had to deal with those has been cuts or tax increases.4 The school bus is something that is already out there and paid for, he said. His bill would permit districts to generate a modest stream of income from their buses.5 Few question the need for finding additional funds when it comes to educating children, but at least two groups think the school bus exteriors should remain ad-free.6 There is no such thing as free money, said Josh Golin, associate director for the Campaign for a Commercial Free Childhood. There are real costs to this: the price of selling out your students to advertisers.7 Students dont need the first and last message they receive from their schools each day to be advertisements, Golin said. Students boarding a bus are certainly a captive audience.8 The National Association of State Directors of Pupil Transportation Services opposes advertising on safety grounds. Obscuring the recognizable school-bus yellow exterior with ads and distracting other drivers present a safety problem around school buses that cannot be ignored, the group said in its position paper.9 National studies have shown that anything that diverts a drivers attention from the road can pose a hazard, opponents say.10 And a big yellow bus doesnt distract? Berry asked.11 Several years ago in Indiana, a Department of Education lawyer suggested that allowing advertisements on buses would invite First Amendment challenges by spurned advertisers, the group noted.12 Berry said the bill would limit the types of advertising that would be allowed.13 The regulations would prohibit ads that contain obscene or sexual material, or messages associated with gambling, tobacco products, alcohol, and political campaigns or causes. The ads could not promote drug use or any illegal activity or antisocial behavior. They cant contain harmful, discriminatory, false, misleading or deceptive messages.14 There are a lot of safeguards being built in, he said.15 Berry emphasized that the space reserved for the ads would be very limited, meaning toward the back of the bus.16 By 2012, nine statesArizona, Colorado, Massachusetts, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, Tennessee, Texas and Utahpermitted advertising on the exterior of school buses, according to the Campaign for a Commercial-Free Childhood. Several, including Missouri, considered it last year.17 The bill made it out of the Missouri House last year but did not clear the Senate, Berry said. He acknowledged that the idea was very controversial.(questions)In Passage 1, how does the author represent the various points of view on the issue of advertisements on school buses?A)by providing quotes from people on both sides of the issueB)by describing the financial benefits for both sides of the issueC)by sharing anecdotes from politicians on both sides of the issueD)by elaborating on the benefits that would result from both sides of the issue Which behavior would be unethical A a regular hotel receives his favorite window table even though another reserved itB a hotel has overbooked and made alternate for some of their confirmed guest C a hotel offers discount rates in the off season D a hotel offers different rates to corporate guest and individuals
