Given the line y=3/5x+2 find the perpendicular line passing through the point (12,-7)

Mathematics

Answer:

y=-5/3x+13.

Step-by-step explanation:

As a line that is perpendicular to anoher line has a slope that is the negative reciprocal of the line's original slope, we know that the slope of our new line is -5/3. As it passes point (12, -7), we can use the point slope formula which is y-y1=m(x-x1). So plug in, y+7=-5/3(x-12) and that gives us y+7=-5/3x+20 which gives our final answer of y=-5/3x+13.

What is m∠2 + m∠3? <br> m∠2 + m∠3 =?
Serga [27]

Let's start with m∠1. m∠1 <em>has </em>to be 90º because line segment AB is perpendicular with line segment AC, as it shows a right angle symbol on the angle beside m∠1. Now that we know that, it will be much easier to find m∠2 and m∠3 because m∠1,  m∠2 and m∠3 are part of the triangle formed in the middle, and all angles in a triangle add up to 180º. 180-90 is 90, therefore, m∠2 +m∠3=90º so all three angles add up to 180º. You don't even have to find the specific angle measurements.

Hope this helps. I also attached a (rather poorly edited) image.

g A sample of 3 items is chosen at random from a box containing 20 items, out of which 4 are defective. Let X be the number of d
professor190 [17]

Answer:

The variance and standard deviation of <em>X</em> are 0.48 and 0.693 respectively.

The variance and standard deviation of (20 - <em>X</em>) are 0.48 and 0.693 respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

The variable <em>X</em> is defined as, <em>X</em> = number of defective items in the sample.

In a sample of 20 items there are 4 defective items.

The probability of selecting a defective item is:

P (X)=\frac{4}{20}=0.20

A random sample of <em>n</em> = 3 items are selected at random.

The random variable <em>X</em> follows a Binomial distribution with parameters <em>n</em> = 3 and <em>p </em>= 0.20.

The variance of a Binomial distribution is:

V(X)=np(1-p)

Compute the variance of <em>X</em> as follows:

V(X)=np(1-p)=3\times0.20\times(1-0.20)=0.48

Compute the standard deviation (σ (X)) as follows:

\sigma (X)=\sqrt{V(X)}=\sqrt{0.48}=0.693

Thus, the variance and standard deviation of <em>X</em> are 0.48 and 0.693 respectively.

Now compute the variance of (20 - X) as follows:

V(20-X)=V(20)+V(X)-2Cov(20,X)=0+0.48-0=0.48

Compute the standard deviation of (20 - X) as follows:

\sigma (20-X)=\sqrt{V(20-X)} =\sqrt{0.48}0.693

Thus, the variance and standard deviation of (20 - <em>X</em>) are 0.48 and 0.693 respectively.

You choose two different songs on a music playlist at random. Out of 80 songs on the playlist, 36 are hip hop songs. The first s
dexar [7]

Answer:

35/79

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming you can't choose the same song a second time, the probability is 35/79.

If you can choose the same song, the probability is 36/80, which reduces to 9/20.
