line has equation 3x + y = 15

Find the gradient of the line.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

  -3

Step-by-step explanation:

We can add -3x to put the equation into slope-intercept form.

  y = -3x +15

The gradient of the line (slope) is the coefficient of x: -3.

The gradient is -3.

2. The graph represents the amount
of water, y, left in a 13.5-gallon tub
after x minutes. What is the slope of
the line? What does the slope mean
in this context?

Answers

Answer:

Slope: -3/2

With the question, we can determine that the slope with two points: (0,13.5) and (9,0). To calculate use the equation [tex]\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}[/tex] and get [tex]\frac{0-13.5}{9-0} =\frac{-13.5}{9} =\frac{-3}{2}[/tex]

This slope means that the water is decreasing at a rate of 3/2 gallons per minute.

A large tank of fish from a hatchery is being delivered to a lake. The hatchery claims that the mean length of fish in the tank is 15 inches, and the standard deviation is 3 inches. A random sample of 41 fish is taken from the tank. Let x be the mean sample length of these fish. What is the probability that x is within 0.5 inch of the claimed population mean? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:

0.5160

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that the length of fishes in the tank is normally distributed. Thus, x is the random variable representing the length of fishes in the tank. Since the population mean and population standard deviation are known, we would apply the formula,

z = (x - µ)/(σ/√n)

Where

x = sample mean

µ = population mean

σ = standard deviation

number of samples

From the information given,

µ = 15

σ = 4

n = 31

We want to find the probability that x is between (15 - 0.5) inches and (15 + 0.5) inches. The probability is expressed as

P(14.5 ≤ x ≤ 15.5)

For x = 14.5

z = (14.5 - 15)/(4/√31) = - 0.7

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.2420

For x = 15.5

z = (15.5 - 15)/(4/√31) = 0.7

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.7580

Therefore,

P(14.5 ≤ x ≤ 15.5) = 0.7580 - 0.2420 = 0.5160

Unit rate is the conversion of one unit to another unit with its standard conversion.

The width of the gymnasium in the blueprint is 4.75 inches.

What is unit conversion?

Unit rate is the conversion of one unit to another unit with its standard conversion.

Example:

1 minute = 60 seconds

1 km = 100 m

1 m = 100 cm

1 feet = 12 inches

We have,

Gymnasium:

Length = 88 feet

Width = 76 feet ____(1)

Blueprint:

Gymnasium:

Length = 5.5 inches

This means,

88 feet = 5.5 inches

Divide both sides by 88.

1 feet = 0.0625 inches ____(2

The width of the gymnasium on the blueprint.

From (1) and (2)

76 feet

= 76 x 1 feet

= 76 x 0.0625 inches

= 4.75 inches.

Thus,

The width of the gymnasium in the blueprint is 4.75 inches.

The height, h, in feet of the tip of the hour hand of a wall clock varies from 9 feet to 10 feet. Which of the following equations can be used to model the height as a function of time, t, in hours? Assume that the time at t = 0 is 12:00 a. M. H = 0. 5 cosine (StartFraction pi Over 12 EndFraction t) 9. 5 h = 0. 5 cosine (StartFraction pi Over 6 EndFraction t) 9. 5 h = cosine (StartFraction pi Over 12 EndFraction t) 9 h = cosine (StartFraction pi Over 6 EndFraction t) 9.

Answers

The motion of the hour hand of a clock is a periodic motion that repeats every 12 hours.

The equation that can be used to models the height as a function of time, based on the given options, is presented as follows; [tex]\displaystyle \underline{ H = 0.5 \cdot cos \left(\frac{\pi}{6} \cdot t \right) + 9.5}[/tex]

Reasons:

The given parameters are;

The variation of the height of the tip of the hour hand = 9 feet to 10 feet

At t = 0, the time = 12.00 a.m.

Required: The equation that can be used to model the height as a function of time.

Solution:

The general form of the cosine function is presented as follows;

y = a·cos(b·x - c) + d

The amplitude = a

[tex]\displaystyle a = \mathbf{ \frac{Maximum \ value -Minimum \ value}{2}}[/tex]

Therefore;

[tex]\displaystyle a = \frac{10 -9}{2} = 0.5[/tex]

b = The cycle speed

The period, T, is given as follows;

[tex]\displaystyle T = \mathbf{ \frac{2 \cdot \pi}{b}}[/tex]

The period of a block, T = 12 hours

Therefore;

[tex]\displaystyle b = \frac{2 \cdot \pi}{T}[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle b = \frac{2 \cdot \pi}{12} = \mathbf{ \frac{ \pi}{6}}[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle d = \mathbf{ \frac{Maximum \ value +Minimum \ value}{2} = \frac{10 + 9 }{2}} = 9.5[/tex]

At t = 0, H = The highest point = 10 ft.

Which gives;

[tex]\displaystyle H = \mathbf{0.5 \cdot cos \left(\frac{\pi}{6} \times 0 -c\right) + 9.5} = 10[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle cos \left( -c\right) = \frac{0.5}{0.5} = 1[/tex]

-c = arcos(1) = 0

-c = 0

c = 0

The equation is therefore;

[tex]\displaystyle H = \mathbf{0.5 \cdot cos \left(\frac{\pi}{6} \cdot t \right) + 9.5}[/tex]

The above equation is the same as; H = 0.5cosine (StartFraction pi Over 6 EndFraction t) + 9.5

Answers

Using proportions, it is found that 7% of the population has blue eyes without blonde hair.

10% of the population has blue eyes. These 10% are composed by:

75% of 4%(have blonde hair).x% of 96%(do not have blonde hair)

Hence, the relation according to the proportion of 10% is:

[tex]0.75(0.04) + 0.96x = 0.1[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{0.1 - 0.75(0.04)}{0.96}[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

Total = ($3.86)n, but it ids not among the answer options.

P would be equal to the price per pen set ($3.86) times the number of pen sets sold, n.

Total, P = ($3.86)n

I translated the paragraph into these options:

n = 3. 86P     No, n = P/3.86

P = 3. 86/n    No, P = 3.86n

n = 3. 86/P    No, n = P/3,86

P = 3. 86n.
