Answer:

y = (1/3)x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The general structure form of a line in slope-intercept form is:

y = mx + b

In this form, "m" represents the slope and "b" represents the y-intercept.

The slope of a perpendicular line is the opposite-signed, reciprocal of the original line's slope. Therefore, if the slope of the original line is m = -3, the new slope is m = 1/3.

The y-intercept can be found by plugging the new slope and the values from the point (-3, 6) into the slope-intercept form equation.

m = 1/3

x = -3

y = 6

y = mx + b <----- Slope-intercept form

6 = (-3)(1/3) + b <----- Insert values

6 = -1 + b <----- Multiply -3 and 1/3

7 = b <----- Add 1 to both sides

Now, that you have the slope and y-intercept, you can construct the equation of the perpendicular line.

y = (1/3)x + 7

The Empirical Rule applies to a normal, bell-shaped curve and states that within one standard deviation of the mean (both left-side and right-side) there is about 68% of the data; within two standard deviations of the mean (both left-side and right-side) there is about 95% of the data; and within three standard deviations of the mean (both left-side and right-side) there is about 99.7% of the data. See display below from Section 3.3 Measures of Variation in the textbook.

Example: IQ Scores have a bell-shaped distribution with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15. What percentage of IQ scores are between 70 and 130?

<span>Solution: </span>130 – 100 = 30 which is 2(15). Thus, 130 is 2 standard deviations to the right of the mean. 100 – 70 = 30 which is 2(15). Thus, 70 is 2 standard deviations to the left of the mean. Since 70 to 130 is within 2 standard deviations of the mean, we know that about 95% of the IQ scores would be between 70 and 130.

Can someone explain me how to find square root by prime factorization ?

liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

<h2><u>STEPS</u></h2>

Step I: Obtain the given number.
Step II: Resolve the given number into prime factors by successive division.
Step III: Make pairs of prime factors such that both the factors in each pair are equal. Since the number is a perfect square, you will be able to make an exact number of pairs of prime factors.
Step IV: Take one factor from each pair.
Step V: Find the product of factors obtained in step IV.
Step VI: The product obtained in step V is the required square root.

<h2><u>Example </u></h2>

<u> Find the square root of 324</u>

324 = 2 x 162
= 2 x 2 x 81
= 2 x 2 x 3 x 27
= 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 9
= 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3
∴ √324 = √( 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 )
√324 = 2 x 3 x 3
√324 = 18

Determine the answer to (−5) + 4 and explain the steps using a number line.pls help i will give 62 pints

GuDViN [60]

The answer is -1 because if you start with -5 on a number line & move 4 numbers to the right (since it’s positive), you’ll land on -1
