Write an equation of a line in a slope-intercept form that passes through (-2,1) with a slope of 5.

1 answer:

8 0

If they give you a point and slope, use point slope form.
Then simplify to get slope intercept form (y = mx + b)
slope (m) = 5
(-2, 1)

y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 1 = 5(x + 2)
y - 1 = 5x + 10

y = 5x + 11

A chemist examines 15 geological samples for potassium chloride concentration. The mean potassium chloride concentration for the

NikAS [45]

Answer:

$0.376-2.145\frac{0.0012}{\sqrt{15}}=0.375$

$0.376+2.145\frac{0.0012}{\sqrt{15}}=0.377$

And we are 95% confident that the true mean of chloride concentration is between 0.375 and 0.377 cc/ cubic meter

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided

$\bar X=0.376$ represent the sample mean for the chloride concentration

$\mu$ population mean (variable of interest)

s=0.0012 represent the sample standard deviation

n=15 represent the sample size

Confidence interval

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

$\bar X \pm t_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}$ (1)

Since we need to find the critical value first we need to begin finding the degreed of freedom

$df=n-1=15-1=14$

The Confidence is 0.95 or 95%, the significance would be $\alpha=0.05$ and $\alpha/2 =0.025$ , and the critical value for this case with a t distribution with 14 degrees of freedom is $t_{\alpha/2}=2.145$

And the confidence interval is:

$0.376-2.145\frac{0.0012}{\sqrt{15}}=0.375$

$0.376+2.145\frac{0.0012}{\sqrt{15}}=0.377$

And we are 95% confident that the true mean of chloride concentration is between 0.375 and 0.377 cc/ cubic meter

a street light is at the top of a 18 ft tall pole. a woman 6 ft tall walks away from the pole with a speed of 4 ft/sec along a s

shutvik [7]

The most appropriate choice for similarity of triangles will be given by -

Speed of tip of the shadow of woman = 6 ft/s

What are similar triangles?

Two triangles are said to be similar, if the corrosponding angles of the triangles are same and the corrosponding sides of the triangles are in the same ratio.

Here,

The diagram has been attached here

Let the distance of woman from the pole be x ft and the distance of tip of the shadow to the pole be y ft.

Height of street light = 18 ft

Height of woman = 6ft

The two triangles are similar [As height of woman is parallel to the height of pole]

$\frac{y - x}{6}=\frac{y}{18}\\18y - 18x = 6y\\18y - 6y = 18x\\12y = 18x\\y = \frac{18}{12}x\\y = \frac{3}{2}x\\$

To find the speed, we have to differentiate both sides with respect to time 't'

$\frac{dy}{dt} =\frac{3}{2}\frac{dx}{dt}\\\frac{dy}{dt}=\frac{3}{2} \times 4\\\frac{dy}{dt} = 6$

Speed of tip of her shadow = 6 ft
