Answer:

B, C

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line can be given by y -y₁= m(x -x₁), where m is the slope. This is also known as the point-slope form.

$\boxed{ slope = \frac{y _{1} - y_2 }{x_1 - x_2} }$

Slope of the line

$= \frac{2 - ( - 6)}{1 - 3}$

$= \frac{2 + 6}{ - 2}$

$= \frac{8}{ - 2}$

= -4

Substitute m= -4 into the equation:

y -y₁= -4(x -x₁)

Substitute a pair of coordinates into (x₁, y₁):

Let's start by substituting (1, 2).

y -2= -4(x -1)

This gives us the same equation as D, making D an incorrect option. Note that the question asks for which is not the correct equation.

Let's change the above into the slope-intercept form, where by y is the subject of formula.

Start by expanding the right-hand side:

y -2= -4x +1

+2 on both sides:

y= -4x +3

This equation is not the same as C. C is thus the correct option.

Let's check for options A and B.

The equation in option B is not the correct equation either as they have substituted (2, 1) instead of (1, 2) into (x₁, y₁). Thus, option B is also correct.

y -y₁= -4(x -x₁)

Substitute (3, -6) into (x₁, y₁):

y -(-6)= -4(x -3)

y +6= -4(x -3)

This is the same as option A, making option A incorrect too.

7.Find the lengths of the missing sides in the triangle. If your answer is not an integer, leave it in simplest radical form. Th

Fed [463]

Here a right angled triangle given. one angle with measure $45^o$ given. The three sides of the triangle given 4, x, y.

We have to find, the sides which is opposite, adjacent and hypotenuse here.

We know that the side opposite to right angle is always hypotenuse. So, hypotenuyse = y.

The side adjacent to the given angle $45^o$ is x. So, here adjacent = x.

The opposite side is opposite to the given angle. So, opposite = 4.

Now we will use SOHCAHTOA that is $sin(x) =\frac{Opposite}{Hypotenuse} , cos(x) =\frac{Adjacent}{Hypotenuse} , tan(x) =\frac{Opposite}{Adjacent}$ , where x is the angle given.

To get x, we will use tan. So we will get,

$tan(45^o) = \frac{4}{x}$

We know the value of $tan(45^o) = 1$ . By substituting the value we will get,

$1 =\frac{4}{x}$

To find x, we have to move x here to the left side by multiplying it to both sides. We will get,

$(1)(x) = (\frac{4}{x}) (x)$

$x = 4$

So we have got the value of x here.

Now to find y, we will use the trigonometric function sine.

$sin(45^o) =\frac{4}{y}$

we know the value of $sin(45^o) =\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}$

By substituting the value we will get,

$\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2} = \frac{4}{y}$

By cross multiplying we will get,

$(\sqrt{2}) (y) = (4)(2)$

$\sqrt{2}y = 8$

We will get y by dividing both sides by $\sqrt{2}$ , we will get,

$\frac{\sqrt{2}y}{\sqrt{2}} =\frac{8}{\sqrt{2} }$

$y =\frac{8}{\sqrt{2} }$

Now we will rationalize the denominator by multiplying $\sqrt{2}$ to the top and bottom.

$y =\frac{8\sqrt{2}}{(\sqrt{2})(\sqrt{2})}$

$y =\frac{8\sqrt{2}}{2}$

$y = 4\sqrt{2}$

So we have got the required values of x and y.

Anastasy [175]

Answer:

(a) The null hypothesis will be rejected.

(b) Type I error

Step-by-step explanation:

The hypothesis provided is:

$H_{0}: \mu = 0\\ H_{a} : \mu > 0$

The p-value of the test obtained is 0.03

(a)

Decision rule for hypothesis testing, based on p-value, states that if the p-value is less than the significance level (α) then the null hypothesis is rejected and vice versa.

The significance level is α = 0.10

Then,

$p-value = 0.03 < \alpha = 0.10$

Thus, the null hypothesis will be rejected.

Conclusion:

The null hypothesis is rejected stating that the value of μ is more than 0.

(b)

If the decision in (a) is an error, i.e. the null hypothesis is rejected when in fact it is true, this type of error is known as type I error.

(c)

The significance level is α = 0.01

Then,

$p-value = 0.03 > \alpha = 0.01$

Thus, the null hypothesis will not be rejected.

Conclusion:

The null hypothesis was not rejected stating that the value of μ is 0.

If this decision is an error, i.e. the null hypothesis was not rejected when in fact it is false, this type of error is known as type II error.
