Answer:

x = - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

y = - 8 is the equation of a horizontal line parallel to the x- axis.

A perpendicular line must then be a vertical line parallel to the y- axis.

The equation of a vertical line is x = c

where c is the value of the x- coordinates it passes through.

The line passes through (- 4, - 2) with x- coordinate - 4, thus

x = - 4 ← equation of perpendicular line

Answer:

The line y = -8 is horizontal

The line perpendicular to the line y = -8 is vertical

The equation of the line perpendicular to the line y = -8 through

the point (-4 , -2) is x = -4

13 Solve the inequality n+7<5n-8

Papessa [141]

Answer:

3.75 < n

Step-by-step explanation:

n + 7 < 5n - 8

Add 8 to both sides

n + 7 + 8 < 5n

n + 15 < 5n

Subtract 'n' from both sides

15 < 5n - n

15 < 4n

Divide both sides by 4

$\frac{15}{4}$ < n

3.75 < n

Test the null hypothesis Upper H 0 : (mu 1 minus mu 2 )equals 0H0: μ1−μ2=0 versus the alternative hypothesis Upper H Subscript a

Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

The test statistic t is t=2.9037.

The null hypothesis is rejected.

For a significance level of 0.05, there is enough evidence to support the alternative hypothesis.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete:

The sample 1, of size n1=25 has a mean of 1.15 and a standard deviation of 0.31.

The sample 2, of size n2=25 has a mean of 0.95 and a standard deviation of 0.15.

This is a hypothesis test for the difference between populations means.

The null and alternative hypothesis are:

$H_0: \mu_1-\mu_2=0\\\\H_a:\mu_1-\mu_2\neq 0$

The significance level is α=0.05.

The difference between sample means is Md=0.2.

$M_d=M_1-M_2=1.15-0.95=0.2$

The estimated standard error of the difference between means is computed using the formula:

$s_{M_d}=\sqrt{\dfrac{\sigma_1^2+\sigma_2^2}{n}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{0.31^2+0.15^2}{25}}\\\\\\s_{M_d}=\sqrt{\dfrac{0.119}{25}}=\sqrt{0.005}=0.069$

Then, we can calculate the t-statistic as:

$t=\dfrac{M_d-(\mu_1-\mu_2)}{s_{M_d}}=\dfrac{0.2-0}{0.069}=\dfrac{0.2}{0.069}=2.9037$

The degrees of freedom for this test are:

$df=n_1+n_2-1=25+25-2=48$

This test is a two-tailed test, with 48 degrees of freedom and t=2.9037, so the P-value for this test is calculated as (using a t-table):

$P-value=2\cdot P(t>2.9037)=0.0056$

As the P-value (0.0056) is smaller than the significance level (0.05), the effect is significant.

The null hypothesis is rejected.

identify the amplitude and period of the function then graph the function and describe the graph of G as a transformation of the

mrs_skeptik [129]

Given the function:

$g(x)=cos4x$

Let's find the amplitude and period of the function.

Apply the general cosine function:

$f(x)=Acos(bx+c)+d$

Where A is the amplitude.

Comparing both functions, we have:

A = 1

b = 4

Hence, we have:

Amplitude, A = 1

To find the period, we have:

$\frac{2\pi}{b}=\frac{2\pi}{4}=\frac{\pi}{2}$

Therefore, the period is = π/2

The graph of the function is shown below:

The parent function of the given function is:

$f(x)=cosx$

Let's describe the transformation..

Apply the transformation rules for function.

We have:

The transformation that occured from f(x) = cosx to g(x) = cos4x using the rules of transformation can be said to be a horizontal compression.

ANSWER:

Amplitude = 1

Period = π/2

Transformation = horizontal compression.

Write whether each statement is true of false. Explain your reasoning.

sp2606 [1]

6 - p....p = 1.5
6 - 1.5 = 4.5
TRUE...because when u sub in 1.5 for p, the difference is 4.5, which is less then 5.

(30)(420) = 12000 - 600
12600 = 11400...incorrect
FALSE...because the product of 30 and 420 does not equal 600 less then 12000

16.3 + 11.9 < 27
28.2 < 27..incorrect
FALSE...because the sum of 16.3 and 11.9 is greater then 27
