Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we are taking only one measurement: the height of one person. Strictly speaking, this is NOT a statistical question.

"List the heights of a sample of 50 first-graders" would definitely be a stat. question.

Lines k and n intersect on the y-axis

avanturin [10]

a) The equation of line k is:

$y = -\frac{202}{167}x + \frac{598}{167}$

b) The equation of line j is:

$y = \frac{167}{202}x + \frac{1546}{202}$

The equation of a line, in <u>slope-intercept formula</u>, is given by:

$y = mx + b$

In which:

m is the slope, which is the rate of change.
b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0.

Item a:

Line k intersects line m with an angle of 109º, thus:

$\tan{109^{\circ}} = \frac{m_2 - m_1}{1 + m_1m_2}$

In which $m_1$ and $m_2$ are the slopes of <u>k and m.</u>

Line k goes through points (-3,-1) and (5,2), thus, it's slope is:

$m_1 = \frac{2 - (-1)}{5 - (-3)} = \frac{3}{8}$

The tangent of 109 degrees is $\tan{109^{\circ}} = -\frac{29}{10}$
Thus, the slope of line m is found solving the following equation:

$\tan{109^{\circ}} = \frac{m_2 - m_1}{1 + m_1m_2}$

$-\frac{29}{10} = \frac{m_2 - \frac{3}{8}}{1 + \frac{3}{8}m_2}$

$m_2 - \frac{3}{8} = -\frac{29}{10} - \frac{87}{80}m_2$

$m_2 + \frac{87}{80}m_2 = -\frac{29}{10} + \frac{3}{8}$

$\frac{167m_2}{80} = \frac{-202}{80}$

$m_2 = -\frac{202}{167}$

Thus:

$y = -\frac{202}{167}x + b$

It goes through point (-2,6), that is, when $x = -2, y = 6$ , and this is used to find b.

$y = -\frac{202}{167}x + b$

$6 = -\frac{202}{167}(-2) + b$

$b = 6 - \frac{404}{167}$

$b = \frac{6(167)-404}{167}$

$b = \frac{598}{167}$

Thus. the equation of line k, in slope-intercept formula, is:

$y = -\frac{202}{167}x + \frac{598}{167}$

Item b:

Lines j and k intersect at an angle of 90º, thus they are perpendicular, which means that the multiplication of their slopes is -1.

Thus, the slope of line j is:

$-\frac{202}{167}m = -1$

$m = \frac{167}{202}$

Then

$y = \frac{167}{202}x + b$

Also goes through point (-2,6), thus:

$6 = \frac{167}{202}(-2) + b$

$b = \frac{(2)167 + 202(6)}{202}$

$b = \frac{1546}{202}$

The equation of line j is:

$y = \frac{167}{202}x + \frac{1546}{202}$

Find the length of the arc and express your answer as a fraction times pie

Elina [12.6K]

Solution:

Given a circle of center, A with radius, r (AB) = 6 units

Where, the area, A, of the shaded sector, ABC, is 9π

To find the length of the arc, firstly we will find the measure of the angle subtended by the sector.

To find the area, A, of a sector, the formula is

$\begin{gathered} A=\frac{\theta}{360\degree}\times\pi r^2 \\ Where\text{ r}=AB=6\text{ units} \\ A=9\pi\text{ square units} \end{gathered}$

Substitute the values of the variables into the formula above to find the angle, θ, subtended by the sector.

$\begin{gathered} 9\pi=\frac{\theta}{360\degree}\times\pi\times6^2 \\ Crossmultiply \\ 9\pi\times360=36\pi\times\theta \\ 3240\pi=36\pi\theta \\ Divide\text{ both sides by 36}\pi \\ \frac{3240\pi}{36\pi}=\frac{36\pi\theta}{36\pi} \\ 90\degree=\theta \\ \theta=90\degree \end{gathered}$

To find the length of the arc, s, the formula is

$\begin{gathered} s=\frac{\theta}{360\degree}\times2\pi r \\ Where \\ \theta=90\degree \\ r=6\text{ units} \end{gathered}$

Substitute the variables into the formula to find the length of an arc, s above

$\begin{gathered} s=\frac{\theta}{360}\times2\pi r \\ s=\frac{90\degree}{360\degree}\times2\times\pi\times6 \\ s=\frac{12\pi}{4}=3\pi\text{ units} \\ s=3\pi\text{ units} \end{gathered}$

Hence, the length of the arc, s, is 3π units.
