Use slopes to determine if the lines 6x + 9y = 2 and 9x + 6y = -3 are perpendicular.

Answer:

Explanation:

Make the equation into slope-int form:
6x + 9y = 2
9y = -6x + 2
y = (-6/9)x + 2/9
y = (-2/3)x + 2/9

9x + 6y = -3
6y = -9x - 3
y = (-9/6)x - 3/6
y = (-3/2)x - 1/2

In order for a line to perpendicular the slope needs to be an opposite reciprocal of the other. If our first slope is -2/3 then the opposite reciprocal should be 3/2 but, we found out that our second slope is -3/2 not 3/2 therefore, it will not perpendicular.

Write an equation of a parabola with a vertex at the origin and the given focus 10. Focus at (-1,0)
Nostrana [21]

Step-by-step explanation:

focus(p) is on the x axis= -1

vertex=(0,0)

parabola equation----- (y-h)^2 =4p(x-k)

(h, k)=(0,0)

(y-0)^2 =4(-1)(x-0)

lbvjy [14]

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Sample size, n = 30

Tcritical value = 2.045

Null hypothesis :

H0: μ = 9.08

Alternative hypothesis :

H1: μ≠ 9.08

Sample mean, m = 8.25

Samole standard deviation, s = 1.67

Test statistic : (m - μ) ÷ s/sqrt(n)

Test statistic : (8.25 - 9.08) ÷ 1.67/sqrt(30)

Test statistic : - 0.83 ÷ 0.3048988

Test statistic : - 2.722

Tstatistic = - 2.722

Decision region :

Reject Null ; if

Tstatistic < Tcritical

Tcritical : - 2.045

-2.722 < - 2.045 ; We reject the Null

Using the α - level (confidence interval) 0.05

The Pvalue for the data from Tstatistic calculator:

df = n - 1 =. 30 - 1 = 29

Pvalue = 0.0108

Reject H0 if :

Pvalue < α

0.0108 < 0.05 ; Hence, we reject the Null

Three years ago, Ava lent her sister $400 to buy some clothes. Today Ava’s sister paid her loan in full with $454. What simple a
Ostrovityanka [42]
Ava's sister paid a 4.5% annual interest rate

Her sister paid $54 more than she borrowed, divide that by 3 (years till she paid)

54/3 = 18

That's $18 for every year she'd had the $400 loan out, divide it by 4 to get the percentage 

18/4 = 4.5/100 = 4.5%
