According to the Pythagorean theorem, a^2 + b^2 = c^2

Therefore, 17^2+12.75^2=c^2.

289+162.5625=c^2

451.5625=c^2

c is equal to 21.25

Indicate the equation of the given line in standard form. The line through (2, -1) and parallel to a line with slope of 3/4

Ket [755]

Well, for a line with a slope of 3/4, any other parallel line to it, will also have the same slope of 3/4

so if the line through (2, -1) is parallel to it, it has a slope of 3/4 as well

$\bf \begin{array}{lllll}
&x_1&y_1\\
% (a,b)
&({{ 2}}\quad ,&{{ -1}})\quad 

\end{array}
\\\\\\
% slope = m
slope = {{ m}}= \cfrac{rise}{run} \implies \cfrac{3}{4}
\\\\\\
% point-slope intercept
y-{{ y_1}}={{ m}}(x-{{ x_1}})\qquad 
\begin{array}{llll}
\textit{plug in the values for }
\begin{cases}
y_1=-1\\
x_1=2\\
m=\frac{3}{4}
\end{cases}\\
\textit{and move everything}\\
\textit{to the left-hand-side}
\end{array}\\

\left. \qquad \right. \uparrow\\
\textit{point-slope form}$

I really dont understand this question, help? i dont need steps or anything

Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

135 degrees is an exterior angle. meaning the interior angle is 45. meaning x is 45 because of the isosceles triangle theorem that states if two sides are equal on a triangle then their angles opposite those are congruent. a triangle measures up to 180 in general. so 45 plus 45 is 90. 180 minus 90 is 90. so angle x is 45 and angle y is 90

Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

Explained below.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Central limit theorem, if from an unknown population large samples of sizes n > 30, are selected and the sample proportion for each sample is computed then the sampling distribution of sample proportion follows a Normal distribution.

The mean of this sampling distribution of sample proportion is:

$\mu_{\hat p}= p$

The standard deviation of this sampling distribution of sample proportion is:

$\sigma_{\hat p}=\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}$

(a)

The sample selected is of size n = 450 > 30.

Then according to the central limit theorem the sampling distribution of sample proportion is normally distributed.

The mean and standard deviation are:

$\mu_{\hat p}=p=0.75\\\\\sigma_{\hat p}=\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}=\sqrt{\frac{0.75(1-0.75)}{450}}=0.0204$

So, the sampling distribution of sample proportion is $\hat p\sim N(0.75,0.0204^{2})$ .

(b)

Compute the probability that the sample proportion will be within 0.04 of the population proportion as follows:

$P(p-0.04$

$=P(-1.96$

Thus, the probability that the sample proportion will be within 0.04 of the population proportion is 0.95.

(c)

The sample selected is of size n = 200 > 30.

Then according to the central limit theorem the sampling distribution of sample proportion is normally distributed.

The mean and standard deviation are:

$\mu_{\hat p}=p=0.75\\\\\sigma_{\hat p}=\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}=\sqrt{\frac{0.75(1-0.75)}{200}}=0.0306$

So, the sampling distribution of sample proportion is $\hat p\sim N(0.75,0.0306^{2})$ .

(d)

Compute the probability that the sample proportion will be within 0.04 of the population proportion as follows:

$P(p-0.04$

$=P(-1.31$

Thus, the probability that the sample proportion will be within 0.04 of the population proportion is 0.81.

(e)

The probability that the sample proportion will be within 0.04 of the population proportion if the sample size is 450 is 0.95.

And the probability that the sample proportion will be within 0.04 of the population proportion if the sample size is 200 is 0.81.

So, there is a gain in precision on increasing the sample size.
