Answer:
y = 1/2x - 4
Step-by-step explanation:
If two lines are perpendicular to each other, they have opposite slopes.
The first line is y = -2x + 8. Its slope is -2. A line perpendicular to this one will have a slope of 1/2.
Plug this value (1/2) into your standard point-slope equation of y = mx + b.
y = 1/2x + b
To find b, we want to plug in a value that we know is on this line: in this case, it is (4, -2). Plug in the x and y values into the x and y of the standard equation.
-2 = 1/2(4) + b
To find b, multiply the slope and the input of x (4)
-2 = 2 + b
Now, subtract 2 from both sides to isolate b.
-4 = b
Plug this into your standard equation.
y = 1/2x - 4
This equation is perpendicular to your given equation (y = -2x + 8) and contains point (4, -2)
Hope this helps!
-3.132 is the answer, you just had to multiply all of them one at a time (:
Answer:
B.
Step-by-step explanation:
All computer simulations are designed to test a large number of different scenarios with various sets of data in order to understand each output that certain data generates and ultimately find the best solution. This is the overall main reason why simulations are created. The same applies in this scenario, this simulation will be used to test hypotheses about patterns in the job placement process that are costly or time-consuming to observe in reality. If such tests had to be conducted by actual people it would take months, years, or even decades to generate and analyze all the data.
