Answer:

point-slope form;

(y - 1) = -8(x+2)

slope-intercept form;

y = -8x - 15

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to determine the slope of the given line;

8y = x − 4

y = 1/8(x) - 1/2..... After dividing both sides by 8

The slope of the line is thus 1/8, the coefficient of x when the equation is written in slope-intercept form.

The required line is perpendicular to this given line which implies that the product of the slopes will be equal to -1. Let the slope of the required line be m;

m * 1/8 = -1

m = -8

The slope of the required line is thus -8. Using the given point,  (−2, 1), the equation of this line in point-slope form becomes;

(y - 1) = -8(x - -2)

(y - 1) = -8(x+2)

We make y the subject of the formula;

y = -8x - 16 + 1

y = -8x - 15

This is the slope-intercept form of the equation of the line.

djyliett [7]

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

\tan A+\tan B + \tan A.\tan B = 1\\\\ \implies \: \tan A +  \tan B =  1 -  \tan A.\tan B  \\  \\ \implies \:  \frac{\tan A +  \tan B}{ 1 -  \tan A.\tan B } = 1\\  \\ \implies \:  \tan (A +  B) = 1 \\  \\ \implies \:  \tan (A +  B) =\tan 45 \degree \\  \\ \implies \:  A +  B = 45 \degree \\  \\  thus \: proved

Rewrite 12/17 as a decimal number. Round to the nearest thousandth.
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

0.706

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert 12/17 to decimal by dividing the numerator by denominator.

12 ÷ 17 = 0.70588.......

The nearest thousandth is the third decimal place.

If we round up: 0.706

If we round down: 0.705

Because the fourth digit is "8", we round up.

If the digit after the one you want to round to is 5 or greater, then you round up. If the digit after is 4 or less, round down..

12 ÷ 17 = 0.70588....... ≈ 0.706

A person traveling from Seattle to Sydney has three airlines to choose from. 40% of travelers choose airline A, and this airline
dalvyx [7]

Answer:

46.67% probability that they flew with airline B.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have these following probabilities:

A 40% probability that a traveler chooses airline A.

A 35% probability that a traveled chooses airline B.

A 25% probability that a traveler chooses airline C.

If a passenger chooses airline A, a 10% probability that he arrives late.

If a passenger chooses airline B, a 15% probability that he arrives late.

If a passenger chooses airline C, a 8% probability that he arrives late.

If a randomly selected traveler is on a flight from Seattle which arrives late to Sydney, what is the probability that they flew with airline B?

This can be formulated as the following problem:

What is the probability of B happening, knowing that A has happened.

It can be calculated by the following formula

P = \frac{P(B).P(A/B)}{P(A)}

Where P(B) is the probability of B happening, P(A/B) is the probability of A happening knowing that B happened and P(A) is the probability of A happening.

So

What is the probability that the traveler flew with airline B, given that he was late?

P(B) is the probability that he flew with airline B.

So P(B) = 0.35

P(A/B) is the probability of being late when traveling with airline B. So P(A/B) = 0.15.

P(A) is the probability of being late. This is the sum of 10% of 40%(airline A), 15% of 35%(airline B) and 8% of 25%(airline C).

So

P(A) = 0.1*0.4 + 0.15*0.35 + 0.08*0.25 = 0.1125

Probability

P = \frac{P(B).P(A/B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.35*0.15}{0.1125} = 0.4667

46.67% probability that they flew with airline B.

SOMEONE HELP ME PLEASE ILL GIVE BRAINLY
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to determine the information you're being asked for, you need to complete the square on that quadratic. The first step is to move the constant over to the other side of the equals sign:

x^2-2x=3

Here would be the step where, if the leading coefficient isn't a 1, you'd factor it out. But ours is a 1, so we're good there. Now take half the linear term (the term with the single x on it), square it, and add it to both sides. Our linear term is a -2.  Half of -2 is -1, and -1 squared is +1. We add +1 to both sides giving us this:

x^2-2x+1=3+1

Now we'll clean it up a bit. The right side becomes a 4, and the left side is written as its perfect square binomial, which is the whole reason we did this. That binomial is

(x-1)^2=4 (set equal to the 4 here). Now we'll move the 4 back over and set the whole thing back equal to y:

y=(x-1)^2-4

From this it's apparent what the vertex is: (1, -4),

the axis of symmetry is x = 1, and

the y-intercept is found by setting the x's equal to 0 in the original  equation and solving for y. So the y-intercept is (0, -3).

Your choice for the correct answer is the very last one there.
