<span>y = sqrt(25-x^2) at point (3,4)

The derivative gives us the slope at 3 to be:
          -2x
 ------------ at x=3: -3/4
     2sqrt(25-x^2)

</span><span>so we have a vector that is parallel to the slope of the tangent line is: <4,-3>
</span>
<span>the mag = 5 so; unit tangent = <4/5 , -3/5>
</span>
<span>since perpendicular lines have a -1 product between slopes we get the normal to be... <3/5,4/5>
</span>
<span>It is <4,-3> because it is rise over run. Rise is y component of vector and run is x component of vector.</span>

Allen has a photo that is 6in by 8in what will the dimension of the photo be if he scales it down by a factor of 1\2
lesantik [10]
A photo of 6 and 8 is scaled down to 1/2 the size
To find this, you multiply both by 1/2 or divide by 2
The new dimensions are 3 by 4
6 divided by 2=3
8 divided by 2=4

Use a common denominator to write an equivelent fractions for each fraction.
sergejj [24]
Sorry for not giving you the calculation here -

5/12 and 2/9 have denominators divisible by only 3 right? Well The common denominator that can then change is 3 because that's the only number they have in common (except 1)

Jeremiah received $65 for his birthday and used part of it to buy 3 video games. The games cost the same amount, and he had $14
hram777 [196]

Jeremiah got $65 on birthday and spent some money on 3 video games and was left with $14.

He purchased 3 video games.

Let the cost one one video game be v.

The cost of each video game is same

So the cost of 3 video games is 3v.

Also he is left with $14 after paying for three games.

Hence

3v + 14 = 65

Subtracting 14 from both sides

3v + 14 -14 = 65-14

3v = 51

Dividing by 3 on both sides

v = 51/3

v = 17

Hence the cost of each video game is $17

mestny [16]

Answer:

c. we are 99% confident that the true mean age of horses with laminitis is between 6.3 and 7.4 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that veterinary researchers at a major university veterinary hospital calculated a 99% confidence interval for the average age of horses admitted for laminitis, a foot disease that leaves the horse severely lame, as 6.3 to 7.4 years.

i.e. if X is the age of horses admitted for laminitis then the sample mean i.e. x bar follows a distribution with 99% confidence interval as

(6.3,7.4)

The interpretation of 99% confidence interval is the for sample of large size drawn at random from population we can be 99% confident that the sample mean will fall within this interval.

So the correct option is

c. we are 99% confident that the true mean age of horses with laminitis is between 6.3 and 7.4 years old.
