Answer:

See attached picture.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that in slope-intercept form [tex]y=mx+b[/tex], [tex]m[/tex] represents the slope of the line and [tex]b[/tex] represents the y-intercept. To start we would put a point on (0,5) to represent the y-intercept. Next, we know our slope is 2 so we would go up two and right one to get to our next point (2,6). We can then make a straight line between these to get our graph

Answer:

She can never travel a distance of 1 foot for the given condition.

Step-by-step explanation:

In every jump, she goes 1/2 as far as her prior jump.

In the 1st jump, she covered a distance, d_1= \frac 1 2 foot.

The distance covered in the 2nd jump

[tex]d_2= \frac 12 \times d_1 = = \frac 12 \times \frac 12= \frac 1 4[/tex] (given)

So, the distanve covered in the 3rd jump

[tex]=\frac 12 \times d_2= \left(\frac 1 2\right )^2\times \frac 1 2= \left(\frac 1 2\right)^{3-1}\times \frac 1 2.[/tex]

Similarly, the distance covered in the [tex]r^{th}[/tex] jump

[tex]=\left(\frac 12 \right)^{r-1}\times \frac 1 2.[/tex]

Assuming she requires [tex]n[/tex] jumps to travel 1 foot of distance.

So, the sum of all the distances covered in n jumps = 1 foot

[tex]\Rightarrow \frac 1 2 + \frac 1 4 + \cdots + \left(\frac 12 \right)^{r-1}\times \frac 1 2+\cdots+ \left(\frac 12 \right)^{n-1}\times \frac 1 2=1[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow \frac 1 2 + \left(\frac 12 \right)^2 + \cdots + \left(\frac 12 \right)^{r}+\cdots+ \left(\frac 12 \right)^{n}=1[/tex]

This a geometric progression, G.P., of [tex]n[/tex] terms having common ration, r= 1/2 and the first term [tex]a_1= 1/2[/tex].

As sum of all the n terms of  G.P [tex]=\frac {a_1(r^n-1)}{r-1}[/tex],

[tex]\Rightarrow \frac {1/2((1/2)^n-1)}{1/2-1}=1[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow - \left(\left(\frac 1 2\right)^n-1\right)=1[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow \left(\frac 1 2\right)^n-1=-1[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow \left(\frac 1 2\right)^n=-1+1=0[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow \frac {1}{2^n}=0[/tex]

This is only possible, mathematically, when [tex]n\rightarrow \infty[/tex], But in real life situation reaching infinity is not possible.

Hence, she can never travel a distance of 1 foot for the given condition.

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

5 times x is 5x, 5 times 9 is 45; 5x+49-4; 49 minus 4 is 45; 5x+45 = 75; now minus 45 from each side so it would now be 5x = 30; now divide; 30/5 = 6.

Answer:

y = [tex]\frac{2w}{x^{2}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve an equation for one of its variable do that

Let us use these steps to solve our question

∵ w = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x²y

→ Underline y

∴ w = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x²y

→ Multiply both sides by 2 to cancel the denominator 2

∵ 2 × w = 2 ×  [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x²y

∴ 2w = x²y

→ Divide both sides by x² to move it to the left side

∵ [tex]\frac{2w}{x^{2}}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{x^{2}y}{x^{2}}[/tex]

∴  [tex]\frac{2w}{x^{2}}[/tex] =  y

→ Switch the two sides

∴ y = [tex]\frac{2w}{x^{2}}[/tex]

2/10 is less, because with a common denominator they are 8/40 and 25/40.  Since 5/8 = 25/40, and 8/40 is smaller than that, 2/10 is smaller.

Answer:

2/10 is less than 5/8

Step-by-step explanation:

2/10 =0.20

5/8= 0.625

0.20<0.625

Answer: A6/ 2/3= 9

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that one tile is 2/3 ft long and we want to cover 6 ft (which is the given measure of the back of the shower).

To know the number of tiles needed, we will simply do cross multiplication as follows:

1 tile ...............> 2/3 ft

?? tiles ...........> 6 ft

Number of tiles = (6*1) / (2/3)

Number of tiles = 6 / (2/3)

Number of tiles = 9 tiles

Answer:

A). 6 ÷ 2/3 = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you should always look at the sign and identify whether it's greater than, less than, greater than or equal to, or less than or equal to. In this inequality, the sign being shown is greater than: represented by m>11h+3

Here are inequality key words to help better understand the signs:

> : Greater Than, More Than

≥ : More Than or Equal To, At Least, No Less Than, A Minimum of

< : Less Than, Fewer Than

≤ : Less Than or Equal To, At Most, No More Than, A Maximum of

Answer:

Explained below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X = number of trucks that will be going over the speed limit on I-77 South between Dobson and Elkin.

The probability of X is, p = 0.75.

A random sample of n = 5 trucks are observed on this stretch of I-77.

The random variable X follows a binomial distribution with parameters n = 5 and p = 0.75.

(a)

Compute the mean as follows:

[tex]\mu=n\times p=5\times 0.75=3.75[/tex]

The mean of this probability distribution is 3.75.

(b)

The mean of 3.75 implies that on average 3.75 trucks that will be going over the speed limit on I-77 South between Dobson and Elkin.

(c)

Compute the standard deviation as follows:

[tex]\sigma=\sqrt{np(1-p)}=\sqrt{5\times 0.75\times (1-0.75)}=0.968[/tex]

Thus, the standard deviation of this probability distribution is 0.97.

(d)

Compute the probability that exactly 3 of the observed trucks are speeding as follows:

[tex]P(X=3)={5\choose 3}(0.75)^{3}(1-0.75)^{5-3}\\\\=10\times 0.421875\times 0.0625\\\\=0.263671875\\\\\approx 0.2637[/tex]

Thus, the probability that exactly 3 of the observed trucks are speeding is 0.2637.

(e)

Compute the probability that less than 3 of the observed trucks are speeding as follows:

[tex]P(X<3)=P(X=0)+P(X=1)+P(X=2)\\\\=\sum\limits^{2}_{x=0}{{5\choose x}(0.75)^{x}(1-0.75)^{5-x}}\\\\=0.0009765625+0.0146484375+0.087890625\\\\=0.103515625\\\\\approx 0.1035[/tex]

Thus, the probability that less than 3 of the observed trucks are speeding is 0.1035.
