Answer:

  m = StartFraction 9 minus 0 Over 0 minus 3 EndFraction; y = –3x + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

The given points are the y-intercept and the x-intercept, so they can be used directly in the intercept form of the equation of a line.

  x/(x-intercept) +y/(y-intercept) = 1

  x/3 +y/9 = 1

Multiplying by 9 gives ...

  3x +y = 9

This can be rearranged to the slope-intercept form ...

  y = -3x +9

_____

The answer selection shown above is the only one that matches the slope and y-intercept of the line through the given points.

attashe74 [19]

Answer:

There is no significant difference between the two averages at 5% level

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a a college student is interested in testing whether business majors or liberal arts majors are better at trivia.

The student gives a trivia quiz to a random sample of 30 business school majors and finds the sample’s average test score is 86. He gives the same quiz to 30 randomly selected liberal arts majors and finds the sample’s average quiz score is 89

Thus he has done a hypothesis testing for comparison of two means of different subjects.  n =30

H_0: Mean of business majors = Mean of liberal arts majos\\H_a:Mean of business majors \neq  Mean of liberal arts majos

Since which is better is not claimed we use two tailed test here

We find that p value = 0.0524 >5% our alpha

Since p >alpha, we find that there is no significant difference between the averages of these two groups and null hypothesis is accepted

Emily is a songwriter who collects royalties on her songs whenever they are played in a commercial or a movie. Emily will earn $
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

(6,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Variable Definitions:

​x= the number of commercials

y= the number of movies

Each commercial earns Emily $50, so x commercials would earn her 50x dollars in royalties. Each movie earns Emily $150, so y movies would earn her 150y dollars in royalties. Therefore, the total royalties 50x+150y equals $600:

50x+150y=600

Since Emily's songs were played on 3 times as many commercials as movies, if we multiply 3 by the number of movies, we will get the number of commercials, meaning x equals 3y.

x=3y

Write System of Equations:

​50x+150y=600

x=3y

Solve for y in each equation:

1)  50x+150y=600

   150y=−50x+600

   y=-1/3x+4

2)  x=3y

    y=1/3x

The x variable represents the number of commercials and the yy variable represents the number of movies. Since the lines intersect at the point (6,2) we can say:

Emily's songs were played on 6 commercials and 2 movies.

natulia [17]
This is a combinations problem.

The total number of possible 2-item combinations is (1000 choose 2)

The number of 2-defective combinations is (300 choose 2)

The probability = \frac{300 C 2}{1000 C 2} = 0.09

Use deductive reasoning to show that the following procedure always produces the number 6. Procedure: Pick a number. Add 4 to th
Flauer [41]

Answer:

procedure always produces 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'n' be the unknown number

Add 4 to the number : n+4

multiply the sum by 3.

multiply the sum n+4 by 3

3(n+4) is 3n+12

Now subtract 6, so we subtract 6 from 3n+12

3n+12-6=3n+6

finally decrease the difference by the tripe of the original number

triple of original number is 3n

3n+6-3n= 6

so the procedure always produces 6

Ian has 20 football cards, and Jason has 44 baseball cards. They agree to trade such that jason
Alina [70]

Answer:

12 trades

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call 'x' the number of trades they will do.

After each trade, the number of cards Ian has increase by 1 (he gives 1 but receives 2), and the number of cards Jason has decrease by 1 (he receives 1 but gives 2), so after x trades, the number of cards Ian has is 20 + x, and Jason has 44 - x.

To find the number of trades when they will have the same amount of cards, we have that:

20 + x = 44 - x

2x = 24

x = 12 trades
