Written in 2-point form, the equation of the line is
  y = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)·(x-x1) +y1
  y = (3-(-5))/(-6-(-4))·(x-(-4)) + (-5)
  y = 8/-2·(x +4) - 5
  y = -4x -21

The value of b is -21.

Company F sells fabrics known as fat quarters, which are rectangles of fabric created by cutting a yard of fabric into four piec
jeka94

Answer:

a) Y 0 1 2

P(Y) 0.58 0.23 0.11

b) mean= 0.45, S.D= 0.6718

c) mean= 1.285, S.D= 8.74

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The following table shows the probability distribution of X:

X 0 1 2 3 4 or more

P(X) 0.58 0.23 0.11 0.05 0.03

Defect >2 = cannot be sold

Y = the number of defects on a fat quarter that can be sold by Company F.

Y = defect that can be sold

Y = Defect less or equal to 2 = 0,1,2

Probability distribution of the random variable Y:

Y 0 1 2

P(Y) 0.58 0.23 0.11

b) mean of Y (μ)

μ = Σ x*P(Y)

= (0*0.58) +(1*0.23)+(2*0.11)

= 0+0.23+0.22 = 0.45

Standard deviation of Y = σ

σ = Σ√(x-mean)^2*P(Y)

= Σ√[(x- μ )^2*P(Y)]

= √[(0-0.45)^2*0.58+ (1-0.45)^2*0.23 + (2-0.45)^2*0.11]

= √[0.11745 + 0.069575 +0.264275

= √(0.4513

σ = 0.6718

Company G:

σ for defect that be sold = 0.66

μ for defect that be sold = 0.40

Difference between μ of F and μ of G

= 0.45-0.40 = 0.05

Difference between σ of F and σ of G

= 0.67-0.66 = 0.01

Selling price of fat quarter without defect = $5

Discount per defect = $1.5

Selling price per defect = 5-1.5 = $3.5

Discount per 2 defect = $1.5*2 = $3

Selling price per defect = 5-3 = $2

Since defect to be sold cannot be greater than 2, let Y = 5,3,2

Probability distribution of the selling price Y:

Y 5 3 2

P(Y) 0.58 0.23 0.11

μ = (5*0.58) +(3.5*0.23)+(2*0.11)

μ = 2.9+0.805+0.22 =1.285

σ = Σ√[(x- μ )^2*P(Y)]

σ = √[(5-1.285)^2*0.58+ (3-1.285)^2*0.23 + (2-1.285)^2*0.11]

σ = 8.00+0.68+0.06 = 8.74

The two-way frequency table below shows data on student behavior and the use of positive phone calls home as an incentive for go
dusya [7]

Answer:

From the frequency table, let's calculate the row total.

Row total for phone call = 19 + 9 = 28

Row total for no phone call = 8 +6 = 14

To calculate their respective row relative frequencies, let's use:

Row relative freq = \frac{freq.}{Row total}

Now, the two-way frequency table will be computed as:

For phone call:

Desirable behavior = \frac{19}{28} = 0.67857 ≈0.69

Undesirable behaviour = \frac{9}{28} = 0.3214 ≈0.32

No phone call:

Desirable behaviour = \frac{8}{14} = 0.5714 ≈ 0.57

Undesirable behaviour = \frac{6}{14} = 0.4286 ≈ 0.43

The complete two-way table is attached.

Drag the tiles to the correct boxes to complete the pairs. Not all tiles will be used. Match each equation with the operation yo
Tanzania [10]

The quadratic equations and their solutions are;

9 ± √33 /4 = 2x² - 9x + 6.

4 ± √6 /2 = 2x² - 8x + 5.

9 ± √89 /4 = 2x² - 9x - 1.

4 ± √22 /2 = 2x² - 8x - 3.

Explanation:

Any quadratic equation of the form, ax² + bx + c = 0 can be solved using the formula x = -b ± √b² - 4ac / 2a. Here a, b, and c are the coefficients of the x², x, and the numeric term respectively.

We have to solve all of the five equations to be able to match the equations with their solutions.

2x² - 8x + 5, here a = 2, b = -8, c = 5.                                                  x = -b ± √b² - 4ac / 2a = -(-8) ± √(-8)² - 4(2)(5) / 2(2) = 8 ± √64 - 40/4.     24 can also be written as 4 × 6 and √4 = 2. So                                                                                     x = 8 ± 2√6 / 2×2= 4±√6/2.

2x² - 10x + 3, here a = 2, b = -10, c = 3.                                                   x =-b ± √b² - 4ac / 2a =-(-10) ± √(-10)² - 4(2)(3) / 2(4) = 10 ± √100 + 24/4. 124 can also be written as 4 × 31 and √4 = 2. So                                                                              x = 10 ± 2√31 / 2×2 = 5 ± √31 /2.

2x² - 8x - 3, here a = 2, b = -8, c = -3.                                                    x = -b ± √b² - 4ac / 2a = -(-8) ± √(-8)² - 4(2)(-3) / 2(2) = 8 ± √64 + 24/4.     88 can also be written as 4 × 22 and √4 = 2. So                                                                             x = 8 ± 2√22 / 2×2 = 4± √22/2.

2x² - 9x - 1, here a = 2, b = -9, c = -1.                                                     x = -b ± √b² - 4ac / 2a = -(-9) ± √(-9)² - 4(2)(-1) / 2(2) = 9 ± √81 + 8/4.                                          x = 9 ± √89 / 4.

2x² - 9x + 6, here a = 2, b = -9, c = 6.                                                    x = -b ± √b² - 4ac / 2a = -(-9) ± √(-9)² - 4(2)(6) / 2(2) = 9 ± √81 - 48/4.                                                                             x = 9 ± √33 / 4

To match we solve the monomials.

1. -15u^3 + 5u^3

Adding

-15u^3 + 5u^3=-10u^3

2.  10u^3 +(-5u^3)

Adding

10u^3-5u^3=5u^3

3. 10u^3 + 5u^3

Adding

10u^3 + 5u^3=15u^3

4.  5u^3+ (-10u^3)

Adding

5u^3-10u^3 =-5u^3
