Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

by clumbing the ladder

Step-by-step explanation:

Hallar la ecuación de la recta que pasa por el punto P(-3,-1) y por el punto de intersección de las rectas 2x − y = 9 y 3x − 7y = 19

Answers

Answer:

y = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form of equation of a line is y = mx+b

m is the slope

b is the y intercept

Get the coordinate of the point of interception of the line 2x - y = 9 and 3x - 7y = 19

Make y the subject of the formula in both expressions

For 2x  - y = 9

- y = 9- 2x

y = 2x - 9

Similarly for 3x - 7y = 19

-7y = 19 - 3x

7y = 3x - 19

y = 3/7 x - 19/7

Equating both expressions

2x - 9 = 3/7 x - 19/7

Multiply through ny 7

14x - 63 = 3x - 19

14x - 3x = -19 + 63

11x = 44

x = 44/11

x = 4

Since y =2x - 9

y = 2(4) - 9

y = 8-9

y = -1

Hence the coordinate of intersection is at (4, -1)

Get the equation of the line passing through (-3, -1) and (4, -1)

Slope m = -1+1/4+3

m = 0/7

m = 0

Get the intercept

Substitute m = 0 and (-3, -1) into y = mx+b

-1 = 0(-3) + b

-1 = b

b = -1

Get the required equation

Recall that y = mx + b

y = 0x + (-1)

y = -1

Hence the required equation is y = -1

Answers

Answer:

n ≥ 50

Step-by-step explanation:

Total pages = 370

Read pages = 20

Number of days remaining = 7

Reading rate per day = n

7n + 20 ≥ 370

7n ≥ 370 - 20

7n ≥ 350

n ≥ 350/7

n ≥ 50 pages per day for the remaining 7 days

The idea is to estimate the proportion p = m/N of tagged =102.

Step 2. (The recapture) After everything has settled down, capture a new sample of n fish. Count the number of tagged fish. Suppose that k of them are tagged.

It is reasonable that, k/n would be a good estimante for p = m/N.

Accordingly, for an estimate N of N, se solve the equation m/N= k/n.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

Given that A and B are independent events

P(A∩B) =P(A) P(B)

we will use the conditional probability

              [tex]P(A/B) = \frac{P(AnB)}{P(B)}[/tex]

                     or

            [tex]P(B/A) = \frac{P(AnB)}{P(A)}[/tex]

Step(ii):-

Given that A and B are independent events

P(A∩B) =P(A) P(B)

 [tex]P(B/A) = \frac{P(AnB)}{P(A)}[/tex]

[tex]P(B/A) = \frac{P(A)P(B)}{P(A)} = P(B)[/tex]

El largo de una casa es el triple de su ancho. Si a la longitud se suma 40 metros y al ancho 1 metro, el área se triplica

Answers

Answer:

el ancho es de 8 metros y el largo es 3 * 8 = 24 metros

width is 8 meters and length is 3*8= 24 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Spanish

Si el ancho de la casa de la casa es x, entonces el largo de la casa es 3x.

Entonces el área = largo * ancho

área = 3x * x = 3x²

3 multiplicado por área = 9x²

9x² = (3x + 40) (x + 1)

9x² = 3x² + 3x + 40x +40

9x² = 3x² + 43x +40

0 = -6x² + 43x +40

0 = 6x²- 43x - 40

6x²- 43x - 40 = 0

Usando ecuación cuadrática

a = 6, b = -43, c- = -40

x = - b ± √b²- 4ac / 2a

x = 43 ± √1849- 4 (6) (- 40) / 12

x = 43 ± √1849 + 960/12

x = 43 ± 53/12

x = 43+ 53/12 y x = 43-53 / 12

x = 96/12 y x = -10/12

x = 8 y x = - 5/6

Ignorando el valor negativo x = 8 el ancho es de 8 metros y el largo es 3 * 8 = 24 metros

English

The length of a house is three times its width. If 40 meters are added to the length and 1 meter to the width, the area is tripled

If the width of the house of the house is x then the length of the house is 3x.

Then the area = length * breadth

area= 3x*x= 3x²

3 times area= 9x²

9x²= (3x+40 )(x+1)

9x²= 3x²+ 3x +40x +40

9x²= 3x²+ 43x  +40

0 = -6x²+ 43x  +40

0 = 6x²- 43x - 40

6x²- 43x - 40= 0

Using quadratic equation

a= 6 , b= -43 , c-= -40

x= - b±√b²- 4ac/ 2a

x= 43±√1849- 4(6)(-40)/ 12

x= 43±√1849+960/ 12

x= 43± 53/ 12

x= 43+ 53/ 12  and x= 43- 53/ 12

x= 96/ 12       and x= -10/ 12

x= 8    and x= - 5/6

Ignoring the negative value  x= 8  width is 8 meters and length is 3*8= 24 meters
