Write an equation for a line containing (–2,8) that is perpendicular to the line containing the points (3,–4)and (–7,1).
Answer and I will give you brainiliest
Answer:
y = 2x + 12
Step-by-step explanation:
the formula for a line is typically
y = ax + b
a is the slope of the line (expressed as y/x ratio describing how many units y changes, when x changes a certain amount of units).
b is the offset of the line in y direction (for x=0).
we have the points (3, -4) and (-7, 1).
to get the slope of the line let's wander from left to right (x direction).
to go from -7 to 3 x changes by 10 units.
at the same time y changes from 1 to -4, so it decreases by 5 units.
so, the slope is -5/10 = -1/2
and the line equation looks like
y = -1/2 x + b
to get b we simply use a point like (3, -4)
-4 = -1/2 × 3 + b
-4 = -3/2 + b
-5/2 = b
so, the full line equation is
y = -1/2 x - 5/2
now, for a perpendicular line the slope exchanges x and y and flips the sign.
in our case this means +2/1 or simply 2.
so, the line equation for the perpendicular line looks like
y = 2x + b
and to get b we use the point we know (-2, 8)
8 = 2×-2 + b
8 = -4 +b
12 = b
so, the full equation for the line is
y = 2x + 12
Answer:
2x-y+12= 0 or y = 2x+12 is the answer
Step-by-step explanation:
slope of the line joining (3,-4) and (-7,1) is 1-(-4)/-7-3
= -5/10
= - 1/2
slope of the line containing (-2,8) and that is perpendicular to the line containing (3,-4) and (-7,1) = 2
Equation of the line line containing (-2,8) and that is perpendicular to the line containing (3,-4) and (-7,1) is y-8 = 2(x-(-2))
y-8 = 2(x+2)
y- 8 = 2x+4
y=2x+12 (slope- intercept form) or 2x-y+12= 0 (point slope form)

A nut company is determining how to package their new type of party mix. The marketing department is experimenting with different-sized cans for the party mix packaging. The designers use the equation r=Vhπ⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯√r=Vhπ to determine the radius of the can for a certain height hh and volume VV. The company decides they want the can to have a volume of 1280πcm31280πcm3. Find the radius of the can if the height is 16cm16cm. Keep your answers in simplified radical form.
Answer:
The radius of the can, in centimeters, is of [tex]4\sqrt{5}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Radius of the can:
The radius of the can is given by:
[tex]r^2 = \frac{V}{h\pi}[/tex]
In which V is the volume and h is the height.
In this question:
[tex]V = 1280\pi, h = 16[/tex]

what is 32⋅(12)x+1=2x−14?
Answer:
[tex]x=-\frac{15}{382}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
32 × 12x + 1 = 2x - 14
384x + 1 = 2x - 14
384x + 1 - 1 = 2x - 14 - 1
384x = 2x - 15
384x - 2x = 2x - 2x - 15
382x = - 15
382x ÷ 382 = - 15 ÷ 382

Answer: x = 14
====================================================
Explanation:
For any triangle, the three inside or interior angles always add to 180
M+N+P = 180
32+64+6x = 180
6x+96 = 180
6x = 180-96
6x = 84
x = 84/6
x = 14
Flying with a tailwind, a flight crew flew 500 km in 4 hours. Flying against the tailwind, the crew flew 468 km in 4 hours. Find the speed of the plane in calm air and the speed of the wind, both in km per hour.
Answer:
spped of the plane in calm air=121 km/h
speed of the wind= 4km/h
Step-by-step explanation:
Let say V the speed of the plane in calm air
and v the speed of the wind
Flying with a tailwind, a flight crew flew 500 km in 4 hours ==> 500= (V+v)*4
Flying against the tailwind, the crew flew 468 km in 4 hours ==> 468 = (V-v)*4
We divide the 2 equations by 4 and then add the 2 results equations:
(500+468)/4=2V ==> V=121 (km/h)
We replace that value in the first equation:
V+v=500/4=125
v=125-121=4 (km/h)

8 < x < 8.5 is your answer
other sides has to always be less than the hypotenuse
9514 1404 393
Answer:
0.5 < x < 16.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of the two shortest sides of a triangle must always exceed the length of the longest side.
If x and 8.0 are the short sides, then ...
x + 8.0 > 8.5
x > 0.5
If 8.0 and 8.5 are the short sides, then ...
8.0 +8.5 > x
16.5 > x
So, for the given triangle to exist, we must have ...
0.5 < x < 16.5
_____
Additional comment
You will notice that the value 0.5 is the difference of the given sides, and 16.5 is their sum. This will always be the case for a problem like this. The third side length always lies between the difference and the sum of the other two sides.

Answer:
[tex]\angle B = 60^o[/tex]
[tex]b =17.3[/tex]
[tex]c = 20[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]a= 15[/tex]
[tex]\angle A = 30^o[/tex]
[tex]\angle C = 90^o[/tex]
See attachment for illustration
Required
Solve the triangle
First, we calculate the measure of B
[tex]\angle A + \angle B + \angle C = 180^o[/tex] --- angles in a triangle
[tex]30^o + \angle B + 90^o = 180^o[/tex]
Collect like terms
[tex]\angle B = 180^o-90^o-30^o[/tex]
[tex]\angle B = 60^o[/tex]
Solve for (c) using sine function
[tex]\sin(30) = \frac{a}{c}[/tex]
Make c the subject
[tex]c = \frac{a}{\sin(30)}[/tex]
Substitute known values
[tex]c = \frac{10}{0.5}[/tex]
[tex]c = 20[/tex]
Solve for (b) using Pythagoras
[tex]c^2 = a^2 + b^2[/tex]
This gives:
[tex]20^2 = 10^2 + b^2[/tex]
[tex]400 = 100 + b^2[/tex]
Collect like terms
[tex]b^2 =400 - 100[/tex]
[tex]b^2 =300[/tex]
Take square roots

In a certain town, 22% of voters favor the construction of a new hospital. For groups of 21 voters, find the variance for the number who did not favor the new hospital.
a. 1.9 voters
b. 4.6 voters
c. none of the given answers is correct
d. 3.6 voters
e. 13 voters
Answer:
Variance = 3.6 voteres
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability of favour voters, P = 0.22
Total number of voters, n = 21
The probability of voters who are in not favour of new hospital construction = 1 - P
The probability of voters who are in not favour of new hospital construction = 1 - 0.22
The probability of voters who are in not favour of new hospital construction, P* = 0.78
Variance = n x p* x (1 - p*)
Variance = 21 x 0.78 x 0.22
Variance = 3.6 voters
If it's possible to tell, decide if a and b are positive or negative: a-3>b-3 and b>4
PLEASE HELP NEED ASAPPPPPPP
Answer:
a and b are positive
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that
[tex]a-3>b-3[/tex]
[tex]b>4[/tex]
We have to find that a and b are positive or negative.
We have
[tex]b>4[/tex]
It means b is positive and greater than 4.
[tex]a-3>b-3[/tex]
Adding 3 on both sides
[tex]a-3+3>b-3+3[/tex]
[tex]a>b>4[/tex]
[tex]\implies a>4[/tex]
Hence, a is positive and greater than 4.
Therefore, a and b are positive
The number of calls received by an office on Monday morning between 8:00 AM and 9:00 AM has a mean of 5. Calculate the probability of getting at least 4 calls between eight and nine in the morning.
Answer:
0.735 = 73.5% probability of getting at least 4 calls between eight and nine in the morning.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the mean during a time interval, which means that the Poisson distribution is used to solve this question.
In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:
[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]
In which
x is the number of sucesses
e = 2.71828 is the Euler number
[tex]\mu[/tex] is the mean in the given interval.
The number of calls received by an office on Monday morning between 8:00 AM and 9:00 AM has a mean of 5.
This means that [tex]\mu = 5[/tex]
Calculate the probability of getting at least 4 calls between eight and nine in the morning.
This is:
[tex]P(X \geq 4) = 1 - P(X < 4)[/tex]
In which
[tex]P(X < 4) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3)[/tex]
So
[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-5}*5^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.0067[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 1) = \frac{e^{-5}*5^{1}}{(1)!} = 0.0337[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 2) = \frac{e^{-5}*5^{2}}{(2)!} = 0.0842[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 3) = \frac{e^{-5}*5^{3}}{(3)!} = 0.1404[/tex]
Then
[tex]P(X < 4) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) = 0.0067 + 0.0337 + 0.0842 + 0.1404 = 0.265[/tex]
[tex]P(X \geq 4) = 1 - P(X < 4) = 1 - 0.265 = 0.735[/tex]
0.735 = 73.5% probability of getting at least 4 calls between eight and nine in the morning.

The mean monthly rent for a one-bedroom apartment without a doorman in Manhattan is 2630. Assume the standard deviation is$500 . A real estate firm samples 100 apartments. Use the TI-84 Plus calculator.a) What is the probability that the sample mean rent is greater than $27007?b) What is the probability that the sample mean rent is between $2450 and $2550? c) Find the 25th percentile of the sample mean. d) Would it be unusual if the sample mean were greater than $26457?e) Do you think it would be unusual for an individual to have a rent greater than $2645? Explain. Assume the variable is normally distributed.
Answer:
a) 0.0808 = 8.08% probability that the sample mean rent is greater than $2700.
b) 0.0546 = 5.46% probability that the sample mean rent is between $2450 and $2550.
c) The 25th percentile of the sample mean is of $2596.
d) |Z| = 0.3 < 2, which means it would not be unusual if the sample mean was greater than $2645.
e) |Z| = 0.3 < 2, which means it would not be unusual if the sample mean was greater than $2645.
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.
Normal Probability Distribution
Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
If |Z|>2, the measure X is considered unusual.
Central Limit Theorem
The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].
For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.
The mean monthly rent for a one-bedroom apartment without a doorman in Manhattan is $2630. Assume the standard deviation is $500.
This means that [tex]\mu = 2630, \sigma = 500[/tex]
Sample of 100:
This means that [tex]n = 100, s = \frac{500}{\sqrt{100}} = 50[/tex]
a) What is the probability that the sample mean rent is greater than $2700?
This is the 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 2700. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
By the Central Limit Theorem
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{2700 - 2630}{50}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1.4[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1.4[/tex] has a p-value 0.9192
1 - 0.9192 = 0.0808
0.0808 = 8.08% probability that the sample mean rent is greater than $2700.
b) What is the probability that the sample mean rent is between $2450 and $2550?
This is the p-value of Z when X = 2550 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 2450.
X = 2550
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{2550 - 2630}{50}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -1.6[/tex]
[tex]Z = -1.6[/tex] has a p-value 0.0548
X = 2450
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{2450 - 2630}{50}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -3.6[/tex]
[tex]Z = -3.6[/tex] has a p-value 0.0002
0.0548 - 0.0002 = 0.0546.
0.0546 = 5.46% probability that the sample mean rent is between $2450 and $2550.
c) Find the 25th percentile of the sample mean.
This is X when Z has a p-value of 0.25, so X when Z = -0.675.
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]-0.675 = \frac{X - 2630}{50}[/tex]
[tex]X - 2630 = -0.675*50[/tex]
[tex]X = 2596[/tex]
The 25th percentile of the sample mean is of $2596.
Question d and e)
We have to find the z-score when X = 2645.
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{2645 - 2630}{50}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 0.3[/tex]
|Z| = 0.3 < 2, which means it would not be unusual if the sample mean was greater than $2645.
Write an equation of the line through each pair of points in slope-intercept form.
a(– 3,–2) and (–3,4)
b(3,2)and (–4,–5)
Answer and I will give you brainiliest
Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
a) (– 3, –2) and (–3, 4)
First you want to find the slope of the line that passes through these points. To find the slope of the line, we use the slope formula: (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)
Plug in these values:
(4 - (-2) / (-3 - (-3))
Simplify the parentheses.
= (4 + 2) / (-3 + 3)
Simplify the fraction.
(6) / (0)
= undefined
If your slope is undefined, it is a vertical line. The equation of a vertical line is x = #.
In this case, the x-coordinate for both points is -3.
Therefore, your equation is x = -3.
b) (3, 2) and (–4, –5)
First you want to find the slope of the line that passes through these points. To find the slope of the line, we use the slope formula: (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)
Plug in these values:
(-5 - 2) / (-4 - 3)
Simplify the parentheses.
= (-7) / (-7)
Simplify the fraction.
-7/-7
= 1
This is your slope. Plug this value into the standard slope-intercept equation of y = mx + b.
y = 1x + b or y = x + b
To find b, we want to plug in a value that we know is on this line: in this case, I will use the first point (3, 2). Plug in the x and y values into the x and y of the standard equation.
2 = 1(3) + b
To find b, multiply the slope and the input of x(3)
2 = 3 + b
Now, subtract 3 from both sides to isolate b.
-1 = b
Plug this into your standard equation.
y = x - 1
This is your equation.
Check this by plugging in the other point you have not checked yet (-4, -5).
y = 1x - 1
-5 = 1(-4) - 1
-5 = -4 - 1
-5 = -5
Your equation is correct.
Hope this helps!
Suppose we take a poll (random sample) of 3923 students classified as Juniors and find that 3196 of them believe that they will find a job immediately after graduation. What is the 99 % confidence interval for the proportion of GSU Juniors who believe that they will, immediately, be employed after graduation.
Answer:
The 99% confidence interval for the proportion of GSU Juniors who believe that they will, immediately, be employed after graduation is (0.7987, 0.8307).
Step-by-step explanation:
In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of [tex]\pi[/tex], and a confidence level of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex], we have the following confidence interval of proportions.
[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]
In which
z is the z-score that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].
Suppose we take a poll (random sample) of 3923 students classified as Juniors and find that 3196 of them believe that they will find a job immediately after graduation.
This means that [tex]n = 3923, \pi = \frac{3196}{3923} = 0.8147[/tex]
99% confidence level
So [tex]\alpha = 0.01[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{0.01}{2} = 0.995[/tex], so [tex]Z = 2.575[/tex].
The lower limit of this interval is:
[tex]\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.8147 - 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.8147*0.1853}{3923}} = 0.7987[/tex]
The upper limit of this interval is:
[tex]\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.8147 + 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.8147*0.1853}{3923}} = 0.8307[/tex]
The 99% confidence interval for the proportion of GSU Juniors who believe that they will, immediately, be employed after graduation is (0.7987, 0.8307).
