Reflection across y and x

Which is the equation of a hyperbola centered at the origin with x-intercept +\- 3 and asymptote y=2x

Answers

Answer:

[tex]{\dfrac{x^{2}}{9} - \dfrac{y^{2}}{36} = 1}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The hyperbola has x-intercepts, so it has a horizontal transverse axis.

The standard form of the equation of a hyperbola with a horizontal transverse axis is  [tex]\dfrac{(x - h)^{2}}{a^{2}} - \dfrac{(y - k)^{2}}{b^{2}} = 1[/tex]

The center is at (h,k).

The distance between the vertices is 2a.

The equations of the asymptotes are[tex]y = k \pm \dfrac{b}{a}(x - h)[/tex]

1. Calculate h and k. The hyperbola is symmetric about the origin, so  

h = 0 and k = 0

2. For 'a': 2a = x₂ - x₁ = 3 - (-3) = 3 + 3 = 6

a = 6/2 = 3  

3. For 'b': The equation for the asymptote with the positive slope is  

[tex]y = k + \dfrac{b}{a}(x - h) = \dfrac{b}{a}x[/tex]

Thus,  asymptote has the slope of

[tex]\begin{array}{rcl}m& =& \dfrac{b}{a}\\\\2& =& \dfrac{b}{3}\\\\b& =& \mathbf{6}\end{array}[/tex]

4.  The equation of the hyperbola is

[tex]\large \boxed{\mathbf{\dfrac{x^{2}}{9} - \dfrac{y^{2}}{36} = 1}}[/tex]

The attachment below represents your hyperbola with x-intercepts at ±3 and asymptotes with slope ±2.

What is the value of the following expression when p = 9? 6p+5

Answers

Find the value of the expression when p equals 9.

So to solve the expression: 6p + 5

We have to plug in the 9 for p

6p + 5 = ?

6(9) + 5 = ?

Then, we multiply solve.

6 x 9 = 54

54 + 5 = 59

Thus, the final value of the expression is 59.

The value of the expression when p is equal to 9 is 59.

Given that,

Expression; [tex]\rm 6p+5[/tex]

We have to determine,

The value of p when p is equal to 9?

According to the question,

Expression; [tex]\rm 6p+5[/tex]

To determine the value of p the calculation must be done in following steps following all the steps given below.

Step1; Substitute the value of p in the expression,

                   [tex]= 6p+5\\\\= 6 \times 9 + 5\\[/tex]

Step2; Solving the expression,

                    [tex]= 6 \times 9 + 5\\\\= 54 +5\\\\=59[/tex]

Hence, The required value of the expression when p is equal to 9 is 59.

The following is also noted "one can say with 95% confidence that the maximum margin of sampling error is 2.2 percentage points". Which of the following is true based on the results of this survey?
A. If we were to randomly sample another group of 4,220 Chinese adults we would find that exactly 30% of them smoke as well.
B. If the sample size was larger, the margin of error would be larger as well.
C. Exactly 30% of all Chinese adults smoke.
D. We are 95% confident that 25.6% to 34.4% of all Chinese adults smoke.
E. We are 95% confident that 27.8% to 32.2% of all Chinese adults smoke.

Answers

Answer:

E. We are 95% confident that 27.8% to 32.2% of all Chinese adults smoke.

Step-by-step explanation:

x% confidence interval between a and b.

Interpretation: We are x% sure that the true value is between a and b.

In this question:

95% confidence level

30% with a margin of error of 2.2%.

So

30 - 2.2 = 27.8%

30 + 2.2 = 32.2%

So the correct answer is:

E. We are 95% confident that 27.8% to 32.2% of all Chinese adults smoke.

Answers

We can assume that 5x+4 = 10x-3 if they are twins and the same age, so take 5x from both sides to get 4=5x-3, add 3 to get 7=5x, and divide by 5, so x=1.4. We can then sub this value for x back into one of the equations, so (5x1.4)+4 to see that they are both 11 years old.

Kim plays a card game with the children. She gives Gareth a card.
Gareth has to guess whether his card is higher or lower than 5 Kim tells him
• there are 10 cards higher than 5
• there are 4 cards lower than 5
Gareth thinks he should guess higher than 5
b) Is Gareth correct?
Explain why you think this.

Answers

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

There are total 10+4 = 14 cards

P(higher than 5) = 10/14 = 5/7

P(lower than 5) = 4/14 = 2/7

There's a higher chance of the card being greater than 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:  Determine if Gareth is correct

Total number of cards → 10 + 4 → 14

Probability of choosing lower → 4/14 → 2/7

Probability of choosing higher → 10/14 → 5/7

Since 5/7 > 2/7, that means that Gareth is correct be choosing a higher card.

Evelyn bought stock in a company two years ago that was worth xx dollars. During the first year that she owned the stock, it decreased by 36%. During the second year the value of the stock decreased by 20%. Write an expression in terms of xx that represents the value of the stock after the two years have passed.

Answers

Answer:

0.512xx

Step-by-step explanation:

100% - 36% = 64%

64% = 0.64

thus after 1st yr, she is left with the value of 0.64xx

100% - 20% = 80%

80% = 0.8

thus after 2nd yr, she is left with the value of 0.8 x (0.64xx) = 0.512xx

An online retailer has determined that the average time for credit card transactions to be electronically approved is 1.8 seconds. (Round your answers to three decimal places.) (a) Use an exponential density function to find the probability that a customer waits less than a second for credit card approval. (b) Find the probability that a customer waits more than 3 seconds. (c) What is the minimum approval time for the slowest 5% of transactions

Answers

Answer:

a) 0.426 = 42.6% probability that a customer waits less than a second for credit card approval.

b) 0.189 = 18.9% probability that a customer waits more than 3 seconds.

c) The minimum approval time for the slowest 5% of transactions is 5.39 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential distribution:

The exponential probability distribution, with mean m, is described by the following equation:

[tex]f(x) = \mu e^{-\mu x}[/tex]

In which [tex]\mu = \frac{1}{m}[/tex] is the decay parameter.

The probability that x is lower or equal to a is given by:

[tex]P(X \leq x) = \int\limits^a_0 {f(x)} \, dx[/tex]

Which has the following solution:

[tex]P(X \leq x) = 1 - e^{-\mu x}[/tex]

The probability of finding a value higher than x is:

[tex]P(X > x) = 1 - P(X \leq x) = 1 - (1 - e^{-\mu x}) = e^{-\mu x}[/tex]

An online retailer has determined that the average time for credit card transactions to be electronically approved is 1.8 seconds.

This means that [tex]m = 1.8, \mu = \frac{1}{1.8} = 0.5555[/tex]

(a) Use an exponential density function to find the probability that a customer waits less than a second for credit card approval.

This is [tex]P(X \leq 1)[/tex].

[tex]P(X \leq 1) = 1 - e^{-0.5555*1} = 0.426[/tex]

0.426 = 42.6% probability that a customer waits less than a second for credit card approval.

(b) Find the probability that a customer waits more than 3 seconds.

This is P(X > 3).

[tex]P(X > x) = 1 - P(X \leq 3) = 1 - (1 - e^{-0.5555*3}) = 0.189[/tex]

0.189 = 18.9% probability that a customer waits more than 3 seconds.

(c) What is the minimum approval time for the slowest 5% of transactions

This is x for which [tex]P(X \leq x) = 0.95[/tex]

So

[tex]P(X \leq x) = 1 - e^{-\mu x}[/tex]

[tex]0.95 = 1 - e^{-0.5555x}[/tex]

[tex]e^{-0.5555x} = 0.05[/tex]

[tex]\ln{e^{-0.5555x}} = \ln{0.05}[/tex]

[tex]-0.5555x = \ln{0.05}[/tex]

[tex]x = -\frac{\ln{0.05}}{0.5555}[/tex]

[tex]x = 5.39[/tex]

The minimum approval time for the slowest 5% of transactions is 5.39 seconds.

We are told that he simulated 30 samples. From the dot plot, we can see how many times he got 10 free throws, 11 free throws, 12 free throws, 13 free throws, 14 free throws, 15 free throws.

Now, from the dot plot, the number of times that he had 11 or fewer free throw successes is 6 times.

P(11 or fewer sucessess) = 6/30

P(11 or fewer sucessess) = 1/5
