Brut [27]3 years ago
4 0

Out of the two units, ounce is smaller than pound and both have traditionally been used for different purposes. Whereas ounces are used to measure precious metals and spices as they are required in smaller quantities, pounds are used to measure fruits and vegetables, and interestingly, mass of people also.

Find the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the given line and passes through the given point. Enter your answer in s
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

y = -0.2x - 5.8

Step-by-step explanation:

If a line is given in the form y = mx + b, the "m" is the slope.

For the line given y = 5x, the slope is 5

The line that is perpendicular to this will have slope that is "negative reciprocal of that".

So, the perpendicular line will have slope of  -\frac{1}{5}

So, the Perpendicular Line will have equation:

y = -1/5x + b

Let's find b by replacing x with 6 and y with -7 [the point given]. So we have:

y=-\frac{1}{5}x+b\\-7=-\frac{1}{5}(6)+b\\-7=-\frac{6}{5}+b\\b=-7+\frac{6}{5}\\b=-5.8

So the equation of perpendicular line = y = -0.2x - 5.8

In a recent test, you scored 1.0 standard deviations above the average score attained, and the scores are normally distributed.
sesenic [268]

Answer:

97.75 %

Step-by-step explanation:

You score 1 standard deviation above the mean

a) we have from left tail up to the mean 50 % of all values

b) We have in the interval  [ μ  -  σ  ;  μ  +  σ ] 95.5 % of all possible values, if we divide that 95.5 by 2 we get 47.75 %,  the part of the values that correspond to the right, then in order to get the  % of students scored lower we add

50  +  47.75   = 97.75 %

So you can say that the porcentage of students that scored lower than you is 97.75 %
