Answer:
b = -9.
Step-by-step explanation:
The line passes through (4, 3) and (7, 12). First, we need to find the slope: the rise over the run.
(12 - 3) / (7 - 4) = 9 / 3 = 3.
Now that we have the slope, we can say that m = 3. So, we have an equation of y = 3x + b. To find b, we can use M(4, 3) and say that y = 3 and x = 4.
3 = 3 * 4 + b
b + 12 = 3
b = -9.
Hope this helps!
The value of b in the equation is -9
How to determine the value of b?The points are given as:
M(4, 3) and N(7, 12)
The equation is then calculated using:
[tex]y = \frac{y_2 -y_1}{x_2 -x_1} * (x - x_1) + y_1[/tex]
This gives
[tex]y = \frac{12 -3}{7 -4} * (x - 4) + 3[/tex]
Evaluate the quotient
y = 3 * (x - 4) + 3
Open the bracket
y = 3x - 12 + 3
Evaluate the difference
y = 3x - 9
Hence, the value of b is -9

Step-by-step explanation:
You are an assistant director of the alumni association at a local university. You attend a presentation given by the university’s research director and one of the topics discussed is what undergraduates do after they matriculate. More specifically, you learn that in the year 2018, a random sample of 216 undergraduates was surveyed and 54 of them (25%) decided to continue school to pursue another degree, and that was up two percentage points from the prior year. The Dean of the College of Business asks the research director if that is a statistically significant increase. The research director says she isn’t sure, but she will have her analyst follow up. You notice in the footnotes of the presentation the sample size in the year of 2017 was 200 undergraduates, and that 46 of them continued their education to pursue another degree.
There is a short break in the meeting. Take this opportunity to answer the dean’s question using a confidence interval for the difference between the proportions of students who continued their education in 2018 and 2017. (Use 95% confidence level and note that the university has about 10,000 undergraduate students).
Answer:
(0.102, -0.062)
Step-by-step explanation:
sample size in 2018 = n1 = 216
sample size in 2017 = n2 = 200
number of people who went for another degree in 2018 = x1 = 54
number of people who went for another degree in 2017 = x2 = 46
p1 = x1/n1 = 0.25
p2 = x2/n2 = 0.23
At 95% confidence level, z critical = 1.96
now we have to solve for the confidence interval =
[tex]p1 -p2 ± z*\sqrt{((1-p1)*p1)/n1 + ((1-p2)*p2/n2}[/tex][tex]0.25 -0.23 ± 1.96*\sqrt{((1 - 0.25) * 0.25)/216 + ((1 - 0.23) *0.23/200}[/tex]
= 0.02 ± 1.96 * 0.042
= 0.02 + 0.082 = 0.102
= 0.02 - 0.082 = -0.062
There is 95% confidence that there is a difference that lies between - 0.062 and 0.102 on the proportion of students who continued their education in the years, 2017 and 2018.
There is no significant difference between the two.
Given a dataset with the following properties:
mean = 50
median = 40
standard deviation = 5
What is the shape of the distribution?
Answer:
The distribution is positively skewed.
Step-by-step explanation:
A measure of skewness is defined in such a way that the measure should always be zero when the distribution is symmetric and measure should be a pure number i.e independent of origin and units of measurement.
The shape of the distribution can be found by finding the coefficient of skewness.
The coefficient of skewness can be found by
Sk= 3(Mean-Median)/ Standard Deviation
Sk= 3( 50-40)5= 30/5=6
The shape will be positively skewed.
In a positively skewed distribution the mean > median > mode. It has a long right tail.
Using the skewness formula, it is found that the distribution is right-skewed.
------------------
The skewness of a data-set with mean M, median [tex]M_e[/tex] and standard deviation s is given by:[tex]S = \frac{3(M - M_e)}{s}[/tex]
If |S| < 0.5, the distribution is said to be symmetric.If S <-0.5, the distribution is left-skewed.If S > 0.5, the distribution is right-skewed.------------------
Mean of 50, thus, [tex]M = 50[/tex]Median of 40, thus [tex]M_e = 40[/tex]Standard deviation of 5, thus, [tex]s = 5[/tex]The coefficient is:
[tex]S = \frac{3(M - M_e)}{s} = \frac{3(50 - 40)}{5} = \frac{30}{5} = 6[/tex]
Thus, the distribution is right-skewed.

The number of times a player has golfed in one's lifetime is compared to the number of strokes it takes the player to complete 18 holes. The correlation coefficient relating the two variables is -0.26. Which best describes the strength of the correlation and what is true about the causation between the variables?
Answer: It is a weak negative correlation and it is not likely causal.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: The number of times a player has golfed in one's lifetime is compared to the number of strokes it takes the player to complete 18 holes. The correlation coefficient relating the two variables is -0.26.
Variables : "number of times a player has golfed in one's lifetime" and "number of strokes it takes the player to complete 18 holes".
Since -0.26 is more closer to 0 as compared to 1 , so it describes a weak negative correlation.
Also, it is not likely causal as number of times a player has golfed in one's lifetime not cause number of strokes it takes the player to complete 18 holes.
Answer: B) It is a weak negative correlation, and it is likely casual

Find the sum of 1 + 3/2 + 9/4 + …, if it exists. This is infinite series notation. The answer is NOT 4.75.
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
First, this looks like a geometric series. To determine whether or not it is, find the common ratio. To do this, we can divide the second term and the first term, and then divide the third term and the second term. If they equal to same, then this is indeed a geometric series.
[tex](3/2)/(1)=3/2\\(9/4)/(3/2)=(9/4)(2/3)=18/12=3/2[/tex]
Therefore, this is indeed a geometric series with a common ratio of 3/2.
With just this, we can stop. This is because since the common ratio is greater than one, each subsequent value is going to be bigger than the previous one. Because of this, the series will not converge. Therefore, the series has no sum.
To see this more clearly, imagine a few more terms:
1, 1.5, 2.25, 3.375, 5.0625...
Each subsequent term will just increase. The sum will not converge.
Answer:
No Sum --- it doesn't exist.
Step-by-step explanation:
The partial sums get arbitrarily large--the go to infinity.
The geometric series you are trying to sum has common ratio = 3/2.
The sum of the infinite series exists only when |common ratio| < 1.
The formula for the partial sum of n terms is (r^(n+1) - 1) / (r - 1) = (1.5^(n+1) - 1) / 0.5, or in decimals instead of fraction.. i.e. 1 + 1.5 + 2.25 + 5.0525 + 25.628 + 656.840..... therefore It would take a long time but you'd be adding up forever and goes to infinity.

The p-value is:_____. 0.09887
Based on this we:_____.
B. Reject the null hypothesis.
Step-by-step explanation:
We formulate null and alternative hypotheses as proportion of people who own cats is significantly different than 80%.
H0 : p = 0.8 H 1 : p ≠ 0.8
The alternative hypothesis H1 is that the 80% of the proportion is different and null hypothesis is , it is same.
For a two tailed test for significance level = 0.2 we have critical value ± 1.28.
We have alpha equal to 0.2 for a two tailed test . We divided alpha with 2 to get the answer for a two tailed test. When divided by two it gives 0.1 and the corresponding value is ± 1.28
The test statistic is
p ± z (base alpha by 2) [tex]\sqrt{\frac{pq}{n} }[/tex]
Where p = 0.8 , q = 1-p= 1-0.8= 0.2
n= 200
Putting the values
0.8 ± 1.28 [tex]\sqrt{\frac{0.8*0.2}{200} }[/tex]
0.8 ± 0.03620
0.8362, 0.7638
As the calculated value of z lies within the critical region we reject the null hypothesis.

Answer:
notice: temperature rises quickly at sunrise, and drops before sunsetwonder: whether this location is shaded by mountains later in the dayStep-by-step explanation:
notice
The temperature starts off below zero in the early morning and stays cold until the sun comes up. Then it warms rapidly to an above zero temperature that peaks in early afternoon. Once the sun gets lower, the temperature starts cooling off again. (The daily temperature range of 25-27 degrees is pretty typical for partly-cloudy sky conditions and stable weather.)
wonder
We wonder if this isn't a location that is on the east- or north-side of a mountain, or in a mountain valley, where the sun hits it early and is shaded later in the day. (The topo map attached seems to show it is in such a location.)
A coin is flipped eight times where each flip comes up either heads or tails. How many possible outcomes a) are there in total
Answer:
256 outcomes.
Step-by-step explanation:
Each time you flip the coin you have two possible outcomes, it can either come up with heads or tails.
You're going to flip the coin eight times so the first time you can have 2 possible outcomes, the second time you have 2 possible outcomes, the third time you have 2 possible outcomes, etc.
Since you are going to do this eight times you are going to multiply each of the outcomes, so you will have:
Possible outcomes = 2×2×2×2×2×2×2×2= 256
Thus, there are 256 different outcomes in total.
A table has five bowls. None of the quantities in the bowls are prime, though the last two bowls are empty. Two of the quantities are squares, and when added to the remaining number, the sum is 21. What are the amounts in the first three bowls?
Since two of the quantities are squares and the sum of all of three is equal 21, then the possible values of those two quantities are: 1,4,9,16
Let's consider each possibility
1 and 4
21-1-4=16, but 16 is also square and there can be only two square so NO
1 and 9
21-1-9=11, but 11 is prime, so NO
1 and 16
21-1-16=4... 4 is a square ,so NO
4 and 9
21-4-9=8 , 8 is not prime and not a square, so YES
4 and 16
21-4-16=1, but 1 is a square ,so NO
9 and 16
9+16=25>21 so.. NO
Therefore, the amounts in the first three bowls are 4,8,9.

which operation should you perform first when evaluating the expression 3²+ 2
Answer:
You should calculate 3² first.
Step-by-step explanation:
In PEMDAS, E (which stands for exponents) comes before A (which stands for addition) so therefore you should calculate 3² first.
Explanation:
The acronym PEMDAS helps determine the order of operations
P = parenthesis
E = exponents
M = multiplication
D = division
A = addition
S = subtraction
With the expression [tex]3^2+2[/tex] we have two operations going on here: exponents and addition.
Since exponents comes before addition (E comes before A in PEMDAS), this means we evaluate [tex]3^2[/tex] first, then add later.

A farmer has 6 buckets of blueberries and wants to sell them at a market stall. The farmer will charge $1.50 per pint. If each bucket can hold half a bushel of blueberries, how much will the farmer make in selling all of the blueberries?
Answer:
$96
Step-by-step explanation:
6(1/2) = 3 bushels of berries total
3(4) = 12 pecks of berries total
4(8) = 32 quarts of berries total
32(2) = 64 pints of berries total
64 x $1.50 = $96
Answer:
The farmer will make a total of $96 from selling 6 buckets of blueberries.
Step-by-step explanation:
The total price is determined by multiplying the 12 pecks down into pints. Each pint sells for 1.50 and he has 64 pints of blueberries.
64 x $1.50 = $96

A triangle has a base that is increasing at a rate of 18 mm per minute with the height being held constant. What is the rate of change of the area of the triangle if the height is 7 mm
Answer:
63mm/minStep-by-step explanation:
Area of a triangle = 1/2 * base * height
A = 1/2bh
Rate of change of area is expresssed as dA/dt = dA/db * db/bt
db/dt is the rate at which the base is increasing.
Given db/dt = 18mm/min
A = 1/2*7b
A = 7b/2
dA/db = 7/2
The rate at which the area is changing dA/dt = dA/db * db/bt
dA/dt = 7/2 * 18
dA/dt = 7*9
dA/dt = 63mm/min
Hence the rate at which the area of the triangle is changing is 63mm/min

Determine whether the statement (p∧(p⟶q))⟶q is a tautology one time by using truth table and the other time without using truth table
It is.........................................................
One way to prove this without a truth table is to use a conditional proof. We assume the portion p ^ (p --> q). If that's true, then so is p and p-->q
Using p and p-->q, the modus ponens rule allows us to derive q. It says that if p is true and p --> q, then q must be true as well.
Since we arrive at q, we have found the conclusion we're after. The assumption (p ^ (p-->q)) leads to q, and therefore the entire statement (p ^ (p-->q)) --> q is true for any combination of p,q.
Find the missing side or angle.
Round to the nearest tenth.
Answer:
b=2.7
Step-by-step explanation:
using sine rule,,,
Step-by-step explanation:
So for this problem, we need the missing angle A. From there, we can use the law of sines to compute length of b.
So the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180. With that in mind, we can make an equation to fine the measure of angle A.
53 + 80 + A = 180
133 + A = 180
A = 47
Now that we have the angle of A, we can use the law of sines to fine the length of b.
b / sin(B) = a / sin(A)
b = sin(B) * a / sin(A)
b = sin(80) * 2 / sin(47)
b = 2.693
Now round that to the nearest tenth to get
b = 2.7

Use Lagrange multipliers to minimize the function subject to the following two constraints. Assume that x, y, and z are nonnegative. Question 18 options: a) 192 b) 384 c) 576 d) 128 e) 64
Complete Question
The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image
Answer:
Option C is the correct option
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The equation is [tex]f (x, y , z ) = x^2 +y^2 + z^2[/tex]
The constraint is [tex]P(x, y , z) = x + y + z - 24 = 0[/tex]
Now using Lagrange multipliers we have that
[tex]\lambda = \frac{ \delta f }{ \delta x } = 2 x[/tex]
[tex]\lambda = \frac{ \delta f }{ \delta y } = y[/tex]
[tex]\lambda = \frac{ \delta f }{ \delta z } = 2 z[/tex]
=> [tex]x = \frac{ \lambda }{2}[/tex]
[tex]y = \frac{ \lambda }{2}[/tex]
[tex]z = \frac{ \lambda }{2}[/tex]
From the constraint we have
[tex]\frac{\lambda }{2} + \frac{\lambda }{2} + \frac{\lambda }{2} = 24[/tex]
=> [tex]\frac{3 \lambda }{2} = 24[/tex]
=> [tex]\lambda = 16[/tex]
substituting for x, y, z
=> x = 8
=> y = 8
=> z = 8
Hence
[tex]f (8, 8 , 8 ) = 8^2 +8^2 + 8^2[/tex]
[tex]f (8, 8 , 8 ) = 192[/tex]

A helicopter is at a cruising height of 1,200 feet. Suppose the angle of depression to the landing pad is 15°, which is located on top of a building that is 64 feet high. If the helicopter continues at the current cruising height, how far does the helicopter need to travel to be directly above the landing pad? Include a sketch that shows all known information and clearly shows what you need to find. Show all work and give the answer rounded to the nearest foot.
Answer:
we have a right triangle and to get the internal angle of the right triangle formed at the helicopter we subtract 62 degrees from 90 which equals 28 degrees
we now use the cosine to find the distance (d) from the helicopter
cosine 28 = 85/d
d = 85 / cosine 28 = 85 / 0.8829 = 96.2736 = 96 feet
