y-2 = -3(x + 6), write the equation of the line in slope intercept form.

Answers

Answer:

y = -3x - 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Point-slope form: y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Given: y - 2 = -3(x + 6)

Slope-intercept form: y = mx + b

To write the equation in slope-intercept form, we need to know the slope(m) and the y-intercept(b). By looking at the given equation, we can see that the slope is -3. We are also given the value of one point: (-6, 2).

To find the y-intercept, input the given values of the slope and the point into the equation format and solve for b:

y = mx + b

2 = -3(-6) + b

2 = 18 + b

Subtract 18 from both sides of the equation to isolate b:

2 - 18 = 18 - 18 + b

-16 = b

The y-intercept is -16.

Now that we know the slope and the y-intercept, we can write the equation:

y = -3x - 16

The gross domestic product (GDP) of France is about $2.00 × 10 12 12 , and the GDP of Tuvalu is about $4.00 × 10 7 7 . How many times larger is the GDP of France than the GDP of Tuvalu?

Answers

Answer:

France's GDP is 50 000 times larger than Tuvalu's GDP.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of France = $2.0 x [tex]10^{12}[/tex]

            Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of Tuvalu = $4.0 x [tex]10^{7}[/tex]

To determine the number of times in which the GDP of France is greater than that of Tuvalu, divide the GDP of France by the GDP of Tuvalu.

[tex]\frac{2.0*10^{12} }{4.0*10^{7} }[/tex] = [tex]\frac{2000000000000}{40000000}[/tex]

           = [tex]\frac{200000}{4}[/tex]

           = 50000

Therefore, France's GDP is 50 000 times larger than Tuvalu's GDP.

A rectangular lawn 4m by 10m has a garden of uniform width added to one end. Then, along the combined side length of the lawn and garden , another garden is added, whose width is twice that of garden . The total area of the lawn and both gardens is 72 m2

Answers

Answer and explanation:

A rectangle's width is longer than the length

And so given a rectangular lawn 4m by 10m,

the width of the lawn= 10m

the length of the lawn= 4m

If a garden of uniform width is added, then garden's width = 10m

The garden of uniform width is added to the width side of the rectangular lawn( since along the combined side length of the lawn and garden, another garden is added)

The garden added to the combined side length of the lawn and garden has width twice that of the garden = 2*10= 20m

Given that total area of the lawn and two gardens = 72m²

Total area of lawn and 2 gardens(Area of rectangle(lawn+2 garden's)) is length * width

= 4*10+ 10*x+ 20*y=72

Therefore equation for total area of lawn and both gardens is 40+10x+20y=72

Where x is length of second garden attached to the width side of the lawn and y is length of the garden attached to the combined length side of the lawn and first garden

x can be solved

40+10x+20y=72

10x+20y=72-40

10x+20y=32

10x=32-20y

x=32-20y/10

Y can be solved

40+10x+20y=72

10x+20y=72-40

10x+20y=32

20y=32-10x

y=32-10x/20

A mosquito is walking at random on the nonnegative number line. She starts at $1$. When she is at $0$, she always takes a step $1$ unit to the right, but, from any positive position on the line, she randomly moves left or right $1$ unit with equal probability. What is the expected number of times the mosquito will visit $0$ before the first time she visits $4$?

Answers

The expected number of times the mosquito will visit 0 before the first time she visits 4 is 3/4 by using concept of probability and geometric series.

Given that repeatedly throwing a fair tetrahedral die, trying to get a 4 (success) before getting a number from 1 to 3 (failure), which follows a geometric distribution.

To find the expected number of visits to 0 before reaching 4, analyze two cases:

success (reaching 4 before 0) and failure (reaching 0 before 4).

By the given data, the probabilities of two cases are:

P(success) p = 1/4,

P(failure)=3/4.

The expected count of failures, X, can be found in terms of success probability p as

[tex]E[X]=\sum_{x=0}^{+\infty}[x(1-p)^xp][/tex]

On substituting p = 1/4 gives:

[tex]E(X) = 0(1/4)+1(3/4)(1/4)+2(3/4)^2(1/4)+3(3/4)^3(1/4)+.........[/tex]

On taking (1/4) gives

[tex]E(X) = 1/4[3/4+(3/4)^2+(3/4)^3+......+\infty]----(1)[/tex]

Consider [tex]3/4+(3/4)^2+(3/4)^3+......+\infty[/tex]

This forms a geometric series tends to infinity and the sum is given by :

[tex]S_\infty = a/(1-r)[/tex]

Here: a= 3/4

r = 3/4

Plugging these values into formula gives:

[tex]3/4+(3/4)^2+(3/4)^3+......+\infty = S_\infty[/tex]

[tex]S_\infty= 3/4/(1-3/4)[/tex]

On subtracting the denominator gives:

= 3/4/(1/4)

On taking reciprocal gives:

= 3/4 * 4

On simplifying gives:

= 3

Substituting these value into given equation 1 gives:

E(X) = 1/4*[3]

On multiplying gives:

E(X) = 3/4.

Therefore, the  expected number of times the mosquito will visit 0 before the first time she visits 4 is 3/4 by using concept of probability and geometric series.

There are 20 boys and 16 girls. what is the largest number of groups that you can form such that boys and girls are distributed equally among the groups?​

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First we find the GCF or Greatest Common Factor

20: 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20

16: 1, 2, 4, 8, 16

As you can see 4 is the GCF (Greatest Common Factor)

so, the largest number of groups are 4

Unless you are asking for how many girls and boys can be fit in each group then,

20 ÷ 4 = 5

16 ÷ 4 = 4

So, 5 boys and 4 girls are in each group.

Find the inverse of the function f(x) = 2x - 4

Answers

The correct answer is f^-1(x)=1/2x+2.

1. Substitute y for f(x). ( y=2x+4 )

2. Interchange the variables x and y. ( x=2y-4 )

3. Swap the sides. ( 2y-4=x )

4. Move the constant to the right. ( 2y=x+4 )

5. Divide both sides by 2. ( y=1/2x+2 )

6. Use substitution to substitute f^-1(x) for y.

Thus the inverse is f^-1(x)=1/2x+2

A carpenter use 65 shelves to make 13 bookcases. She uses the same number of shelves for each bookcase. Are 32 shelves enough to build 6 more bookcases?

Answers

Answer:

Yes.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the unit rate for 1 bookcase.

65 ÷ by 13 = 5 (unit rate)

Then, multiply the unit rate by the bookcases the carpenter wants to make.

6 · 5 = 30

Finally, subtract the shelves the carpenter wants to use by 30.

32 - 30 = 2 shelves.

Therefore, 32 shelves is enough to build 6 more bookcases. <3

A company that teaches self-improvement seminars is holding one of its seminars in Belmont. The company pays a flat fee of $250 to rent a facility in which to hold each session. Additionally, for every attendee who registers, the company must spend $4 to purchase books and supplies. Each attendee will pay $14 for the seminar. Once a certain number of attendee register, the company will be breaking even. How many attendees will that take?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

250 for place  4 for books each.

If they charge 14 per person, 4 of that goes for the books and 10 will be applied to the rental fee.

250/10= 25 people to break even. Any people beyond that  is a profit of 10.00 since the other 4 will still go to the books.

[BRAINLIEST] To manufacture an automobile requires​ painting, drying, and polishing. Epsilon Motor Company produces three types of​ cars, the​ Delta, the​ Beta, and the Sigma. Each Delta requires hours for​ painting, hours for​ drying, and hours for polishing. A Beta requires hours for​ painting, hours for​ drying, and hours for​ polishing, and a Sigma requires hours for​ painting, for​ drying, and for polishing. If the company has hours for​ painting, hours for​ drying, and hours for polishing per​ month, how many of each type of car are​ produced?

Answers

Answer:

The company manufactures 5 delta cars, 8 beta cars and 12 sigma cars.

Step-by-step explanation:

let in the motor company x number of delta cars, y number of beta cars and z number of sigma cars are manufactured.

from the condition given in the question we can write

9x + 13y + 9z = 257 ........ (1)

4x + 6y + 4z = 116 ........... (2) and    

3x + 4y + z = 59 ......... (3)

From equation (2) we get

9x + 13.5y + 9z = 261 ....... (4) {Multiplying with  both sides}

solving equations (1) and (4) we get

0.5y = 4

and ⇒ y = 8.

from equation (2) putting the value of y we get,  

4x + 4z = 116 - 48 = 68

⇒x + z = 17 .....(5)

Now, from equation (3) putting y = 8 we get,  

3x + z = 59 - 32 = 27 ....... (6)  

hence, solving equations (5) and (6) we get, 17 - x = 27 - 3x

⇒ 2x = 10

⇒ x = 5  

So, z = 17 - x = 12

therefore, the company manufactures 5 delta cars, 8 beta cars and 12 sigma cars.
