Answer:
y = -1/4x - 5/2
Step-by-step explanation:
-2- -4 /-1-7 = 2/-8 = -1/4
y+2 = -1/4(x+2)
y+2 = -1/4x - 1/2
y = -1/4x -5/2
Based on the survey results, there is a probability that a randomly selected person will feel guilty about wasting food and a probability that a randomly selected person will feel guilty about leaving lights on when not in a room. Moreover, there is a probability that a randomly selected person will feel guilty for both of these reasons.
Required:
a. What is the probability that a randomly selected person will feel guilty for either wasting food or leaving lights on when not in a room or both (to 2 decimals)?
b. What is the probability that a randomly selected person will not feel guilty for either of these reasons (to 2 decimals)?
This question is incomplete, the complete question is;
he Eco Pulse survey from the marketing communications firm Shelton Group asked individuals to indicate things they do that make them feel guilty (Los Angeles Times, August 15, 2012).
Based on the survey results, there is a 0.39 probability that a randomly selected person will feel guilty about wasting food and a 0.27 probability that a randomly selected person will feel guilty about leaving lights on when not in a room.
Moreover, there is a 0.12 probability that a randomly selected person will feel guilty for both of these reasons.
Required:
a. What is the probability that a randomly selected person will feel guilty for either wasting food or leaving lights on when not in a room or both (to 2 decimals)?
b. What is the probability that a randomly selected person will not feel guilty for either of these reasons (to 2 decimals)?
Answer:
a)
the probability that a randomly selected person will feel guilty for either wasting food or leaving lights on when not in a room or both is 0.54
b)
the probability that a randomly selected person will not feel guilty for either of these reasons is 0.46
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the data in the question;
lets A represent person feels guilty about wasting food and B represent leaving the light on when not in room;
probability; feel guilty about wasting food P(A) = 0.39
probability; feel guilty about leaving light on P(B) = 0.27
probability; feel guilty for both P(A ∩ B ) = 0.12
a)
probability that a randomly selected person will feel guilty for either wasting food or leaving lights on when not in a room or both
p( A ∪ B ) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A ∩ B )
we substitute
p( A ∪ B ) = 0.39 + 0.27 - 0.12
p( A ∪ B ) = 0.54
Therefore, the probability that a randomly selected person will feel guilty for either wasting food or leaving lights on when not in a room or both is 0.54
b)
probability that a randomly selected person will not feel guilty for either of these reasons;
p( A ∪ B )' = 1 - p( A ∪ B )
p( A ∪ B )' = 1 - 0.54
p( A ∪ B )' = 0.46
Therefore, the probability that a randomly selected person will not feel guilty for either of these reasons is 0.46

A club has 800 members.
100 of the members were randomly picked and were asked if the dues should be
raised.
6 of the members said that dues should be raised.
Based on these results, about how many members in the club would be expected to say
that dues should be raised?
A. 14
B. 42
C. 48
D. 66
Answer:
C-48
Step-by-step explanation:
Around 48 individuals would be required to say that contribution be raised
Bit by bit clarification:
Here, we will utilize an instance of a delegate testing to decide the real.
Out of the 100 chose individuals, 6 said the levy ought to be raised;
This addresses a level of 6/100 = 6%
So out of the 800, the normal number of individuals that would request a levy raising will be;
6/100 * 800 = 48
Oil prices are projected to increase by 125% by next August. A quart of oil currently costs $1.25. What is the projected cost of a gallon of oil next August? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.
Answer:$2.81
Step-by-step explanation:
1.25 is 100% of the price
125% + 100% = 225%
x = price by august
x = 225% (1.25)
225% = 2.25
2.25(1.25) = 2.8125 ≈ $2.81
Another way to see it:
=
225(1.25) / 100 = 2.8125

Simplify 8-9+8÷4
Please help thank you
Answer:
1.
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation 8 - 9 + 8 / 4 is given.
When solving equations with multiple signs in them, we need to follow PEMDAS.
Which is an acronym for a series of equations you need to follow in order.
Parenthesis
Exponent
Multiply
Divide
Addition
Subtraction.
So look at the equation, 8 / 4 would be first since it is dividing.
8 / 4
2
8 - 9 + 2
Now when it comes down to the last two of PEMDAS (Addition and Subtraction), we can just solve left to right.
Therefore,
8 - 9
-1
-1 + 2

Ava swam for 154 minutes during her first week of vacation. In her two weeks of vacation, she swam for a total of 357 minutes. How many more minutes did she swim for in the second week than in the first week?
Sort the information from the problem. What do we know? What do we need to figure out?
Answer:
203 more minutes
We know she swam 154 min in first week.
And in two weeks she swam 357 minutes.
We need to figure out x (total of minutes swam in week two)
So do 357=x+154
Subtract 154 from both sides
x=203

What is the median of 8,9,10,1,6,4,7,6
Answer:
The median is 6.5
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the median, first organize the numbers from least to greatest:
1, 4, 6, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10
The median is always the number in the middle, but since there are eight numbers here, there will be two numbers in the middle: 6 and 7.
To solve for this, we have to find the average of the numbers.
Add the two numbers together and then divide by 2 (we divide by 2 because we are averaging two numbers).
(6 + 7)/2
13/2
6.5

simplify - root (9+y)^2 if y <-10
Answer:
− √ ( 9 + y ) 2 > 1
Explanation:
− √ ( 9 + y ) 2 , where y < − 10
Simplify the expression,
− √ ( 9 + y ) 2 = − ( 9 + y ) = − 9 − y
When y < − 10 , − y > 10
Subtract 9 from both sides,
− 9 − y > 1 Hence,
− √ ( 9 + y ) 2 > 1
The value of the expression -√(9 + y)² is -9 which is more than -10. So, it is incorrect.
What is Algebra?Algebra is the study of abstract symbols, while logic is the manipulation of all those ideas.
The definition of simplicity is making something simpler to achieve or grasp while also making it a little less difficult.
The expression is given below.
⇒ -√(9 + y)²
Simplify the expression, then we have
-√(9 + y)² = 0
(9 + y) = 0
9 + y = 0
y = - 9

Answer:
(a)
[tex]f(x) = \left \{ {{5x;\ 0<x\le 5} \atop {5x-5; x > 5}} \right.[/tex]
(b) Rate = 5
(c) Rate = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
The attached graph
Solving (a): The piece-wise function
For the first line
Calculate the slope of the first line
[tex]m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}[/tex]
Where
[tex](x_1,y_1) = (0,0)[/tex]
[tex](x_2,y_2) = (5,25)[/tex]
So, the slope is:
[tex]m = \frac{25 - 0}{5 - 0}[/tex]
[tex]m = \frac{25}{5}[/tex]
[tex]m = 5[/tex]
The equation is then calculated as:
[tex]y = m(x - x_1) + y_1[/tex]
Where: [tex]m = 5[/tex] and [tex](x_1,y_1) = (0,0)[/tex]
[tex]y = 5(x - 0) + 0[/tex]
[tex]y = 5(x) + 0[/tex]
[tex]y = 5x[/tex]
So, the function of the first line is:
[tex]f(x) = 5x;\ 0 < x \le 5[/tex]
For the second line
Calculate the slope of the second line
[tex]m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}[/tex]
Where
[tex](x_1,y_1) = (5,20)[/tex]
[tex](x_2,y_2) = (9,40)[/tex]
So, the slope is:
[tex]m = \frac{40 - 20}{9 - 5}[/tex]
[tex]m = \frac{20}{4}[/tex]
[tex]m = 5[/tex]
The equation is then calculated as:
[tex]y = m(x - x_1) + y_1[/tex]
Where: [tex]m = 5[/tex] and [tex](x_1,y_1) = (5,20)[/tex]
[tex]y = 5(x - 5) + 20[/tex]
[tex]y = 5x - 25 + 20[/tex]
[tex]y = 5x -5[/tex]
So, the function of the second line is:
[tex]f(x) = 5x -5;\ x>5[/tex]
Hence, the piece-wise function is:
[tex]f(x) = \left \{ {{5x;\ 0<x\le 5} \atop {5x-5; x > 5}} \right.[/tex]
Solving (b): The rate at which customers that buy up to 5lb buy.
[tex]x = 5[/tex]
This question implies that, we determine the rate at which this customer buys.
For [tex]x = 5[/tex]
[tex]f(x) = 5x;\ 0 < x \le 5[/tex]
The slope of the above function is 5.
So, this customer buys at the rate of $5 per lb
Solving (b): The rate at which customers that buy more than 5lb buy the extra pounds above 5lb.
For [tex]x > 5[/tex]
[tex]f(x) = 5x -5;\ x>5[/tex]
Assume x = 6
[tex]f(6) = 5 * 6 - 5[/tex]
[tex]f(6) = 30 - 5[/tex]
[tex]f(6) = 25[/tex]
Express as 20 + 5
[tex]f(6) = 20 + 5 * 1[/tex]
Assume x = 7
[tex]f(7) = 5 * 7 - 5[/tex]
[tex]f(7) = 35 - 5[/tex]
[tex]f(7) = 30[/tex]
[tex]f(7) = 20 + 10[/tex]
Express 10 as 5 * 2
[tex]f(7) = 20 + 5 * 2[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]f(6) = 20 + 5 * 1[/tex]
[tex]f(7) = 20 + 5 * 2[/tex]
This can be generalized as:
[tex]f(x) = 20 + 5(x - 5)[/tex]
For the above functions;
20 represents the amount they buy the first 5
5 represents the rate at which they buy extra pounds above 5
Hence, they buy the extra pounds at the rate of $5 per pound

Answer:
4050 cubic feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's first find the volume of the green cube. It is the edge length cubed, or 15^3 which equals 3375.
Now, let's find the volume of the brown pyramid on the cube. To find the volume, multiply the base of the pyramid by the height, then divide by 3.
Using the edge length of 15, we can find that the square is 15^2 which equals 225.
Multiply 225 by the height 9,
225*9=2025
Then divide by 3.
2025/3=675.
Knowing the volume of the green cube, 3375, and the volume of the brown pyramid, 675, we can find that the volume of the entire figure is
3375 +675=4050 cubic feet.

Peyton needed to get her computer fixed. She took it to the repair store. The
technician at the store worked on the computer for 4 hours and charged her $77 for
parts. The total was $497. Write and solve an equation which can be used to
determine x, the cost of the labor per hour.
Answer:
The cost of labor per hour is $105.
The expression is 4x + 77 = 497
Step-by-step explanation:
The expression is 4x + 77 = 497, where 4x represents the cost of labor per hour, 77 is the cost of the parts, and 497 is the total.
4x + 77 = 497
4x + 77 - 77 = 497 -77
4x = 420
4x/4=420/4
x = 105

Two students in different classes took the same math test. Both students received a
score of 87. In student A's class the mean was 78 and the standard deviation of 5. In
student B's class the mean was 76 with a standard deviation of 4. Which student
scored in the top 10% of their class?
Answer:
Both students scored in the top 10% of their classes.
Step-by-step explanation:
Normal Probability Distribution:
Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
In this question:
Top 10% = Above the 100 - 10 = 90th percentile.
The 90th percentile of scores is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.9, that is, Z = 1.28.
So, the student who had a z-score above 1.28 scored in the 90th percentile of their class.
In student A's class the mean was 78 and the standard deviation of 5. He scored 87.
We have that [tex]\mu = 78, \sigma = 5, X = 87[/tex]
Then
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{87 - 78}{5}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1.8[/tex]
1.8 > 1.28, so student A scored in the top 10% of his/her class.
Student B's class the mean was 76 with a standard deviation of 4. Scored 87.
We have that [tex]\mu = 76, \sigma = 4, X = 87[/tex]
Then
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{87 - 76}{4}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 2.75[/tex]
2.75 > 1.28, so student B also scored in the top 10% of his/her class.
Both students scored in the top 10% of their classes.

GEOMETRY find the angle of PRQ NO LINKS!!
Answer:
55
Step-by-step explanation:
Remark
This is a really good question to know the answer to. <PRQ = 1/2 POQ (the central angle. )
The central angle for this question is 110o. So any angle that has its vertex on the circumference is 1/2 110 = 55. The central angle and the angle on the circumference must be related as they are as this question is. (Both are on the same side of PQ which is not drawn but you can draw it).
