Answer:

y=\frac{1}{4} x-1.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) if the lines are perpendicular, then the second slop is 0.25;

2) the equation of the 2d line is y=0.25x+i, where i - unknown intercept;

3) it is possible to calculate the unknown intercept, if to substitute the given coordinates into the equation y=0.25x+i:

-4=-12*0.25+i; ⇔ i=-1.

4) finally, the required equation is:

y=\frac{1}{4} x-1.

Answer:

y = 3/4x - 9/8

Then read explanation and see here with 2 coordinates would make

if 3/4 = -6 then 1 = -8

y = -6x + c

-6 / 3/4  + 9/8 / - 0.5  = -2.25

therefore c = -2.25

y = -6x - 2.25

y = -6x - 9/4  and again 9/4 can be found easily if round up fraction decimal to 225/100 and divide by 4

Step-by-step explanation:

C1)    (0.5 , -0.75)

C2)   ( 1. -3.75)

y = mx + c

-3.75 - - 0.75  /   1 - 0.5  = -3.75 + 0.75 / 0.5

= -3 / 0.5 = m

m = -6

y = -6x + c

then this works given just one coordinate to solve for 1 or 2 sets given points

y - y1 = mx+c

y - - 0.75 =  0.75 (x - x1)

y + 0.75 = 0.75 (x - 0.5)

y + 0.75 = 0.75x - 0.375

y = 0.75 - 0.75   =  0.75x( - 0.375 - 0.75)

y = 0.75x -1.125

y = 3/4x - 9/8    as common denominators of 1125/1000 is 9/8 as we divide by  125 into the fraction as we start at 250 and check its half just like when finding common denominators we 1/4 the lower number and see if we can find its half or its double etc with the other num er as first step for 3sf numbers.

In a standard normal distribution, about _________% of the scores fall above a z-score of 3.00
Katarina [22]

The normal rule to remember is 68-95-99.7, i.e. plus or minus three sigma corresponds to 99.7% of the probability. That leaves 0.3% in the two tails, or 0.15% in the tail above 3 sigma.

Answer: 0.15%

Solve the system of equations algebraically. Show all of your steps
Katyanochek1 [597]
I am going to explain this using the substitution method, considering it appears to be the best in this situation.

We know (from the bottom equation) that y can equal 3x+20. Using this knowledge, we substitute the y in the top equation for 3x+20. Now, we have an equation that looks like this:

3x+20=x^2+2x

Now we need to move x to one side and then do some radicals (square roots).
Subtract the 2x on the right (since it is smaller, negatives = NONONO), which will give you

x+20=x^2

Now, we take the square root of both sides to get

rad(x+20)=x

Now we have to simplify. 20 doesn't have a square root, but 4 goes into 20, and 4 has a square root of 2. This now becomes

2rad(x+5)

This doesn't simplify any further... we have a problem... no way to isolate x as far as my knowledge goes... Sorry, can't help you any further than that, but another person or your teacher might be able to. R.I.P...
