Answer:

x = $\frac{22}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that y varies directly with x then the equation relating them is

y = kx ← k is the constant of variation

To find k use the condition y = - 6 when x = 2, then

- 6 = 2k ( divide both sides by 2 )

- 3 = k

y = - 3x ← equation of variation

When y = - 22, then

- 22 = - 3x ( divide both sides by - 3 )

x = $\frac{-22}{-3}$ = $\frac{22}{3}$

Angle MNO is formed by segments MN and NO on the following coordinate grid:

Eva8 [605]

Answer:

I am 90% sure that the answer is M'N'O' is 90*

Step-by-step explanation:

A line segment MN is shown as M = -1,1 and N= -5,4 this makes a diagonal line across the grid. Another line segment NO is shown with O as ordered pair negative 1, 4. Angle MNO is rotated 90 degrees counterclockwise about the origin to form angle M′N′O′. this is where the angles meet, Rotating the shape (or the angles) does not change the degree of the angle of the shape. I am 99% sure that an 90* angle would be formed. but im just in middle school so what do i know?

Answer:

$P(52$

And we can find this probability with this difference:

$P(-0.851$

And if we use the normal standard distribution or excel we got:

$P(-0.851$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X the random variable that represent the time required to construct and test a particular component of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

$X \sim N(60,9.4)$

Where $\mu=60$ and $\sigma=9.4$

We want to find this probability:

$P(52$

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

Using this formula we got:

$P(52$

And we can find this probability with this difference:

$P(-0.851$

And if we use the normal standard distribution or excel we got:

$P(-0.851$
