We are asked to find the equation of the line that passes through (2,5) and is perpendicular to y = 2x - 8
when 2 lines are perpendicular to each other the slope of one line is the negative reciprocal of the other line.
the slope of the perpendicular line is 2, then the slope of the line we are asked to find should have the negative reciprocal of 2 , that is -1/2
m = -1/2
We know x and y coordinates of one point, we can substitute
y = mx + c
y = 5, x = 2
5 = -1/2 *2 + c
5 = -1 + c 
c = 6
the equation of the line is 
y = -1/2x + 6

The number of chocolate chips in a bag of chocolate chip cookies is approximately normally distributed with a mean of 1262 chips
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

Using z score formula:

X = z ∂ + µ

 = 157.833

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution:

Mean = µ = 1262

Standard deviation = ∂ = 117

(a) 28th percentile for the number of chocolate chip.

P( z < z) = 28%

             = 0.28

P( z<- 0.58)  = 0.28

Z = -0.58

By using z score formula:

Z = x - µ /∂

-0.58= x – 117 / 1262

X = (- 0.58)(117) + (1262)

 =  1194.14

(b) Middle 97% of bag.

P(-z < z < z) = 97%

                    = 0.97

P( z < z) – p(z < -z) = 0.97

2p(z < z) -1 = 0.97

2p (z < z) = 1 + 0.97

P(z < z) = 1.97 / 2

            = 0.99

P(z < 2.33) = 0.99

Z ± 2.33

By using z score formula:

Z = x - µ / ∂

X = z ∂ + µ

  = - 2.33 x 117 + 1262

  =989.39

Z = 2.33

X = z ∂ + µ

  =  2.33 x 117 + 1262

 =1533.61

(c) What is the interquartile range of the number of chocolate chips in a bag of chocolate.

By using standard normal table,

The z dist’n formula:

P(z < z ) = 25%

            =0.25

P(z < -0.6745) = 0.25

Z = 0.6745

Using z score formula:

X = z∂ + µ

   = - 0.6745 x 117 + 1262

  = 1183.0835

First quartile = Q1 =1183.0835

The third quartile is:

P(z<z) = 75%

    = 0.75

P(z < 0.6745) = 0.75

Z = 0.6745

Using z score formula:

X = z ∂ + µ

  = 0.6745 x 117 + 1262

= 1340.9165

IQR = Q3 – Q1

     = 1340.9165 – 1183.0835

  = 157.833

The ardered.pairs.(0, 1), (3, 10) and (4, n) are solutions of the same linear equation. Find n.
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

n = 13.

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope of the line = (10-1)/3-0) = 3

So the equation of the line is:

y - 1 = 3(x - 0)

y = 3x + 1

When x = 4 y = n,  so:

n = 3(4) + 1 = 13.

n = 13.

Answer: Constant.

The graph does not have an incline and therefore has a slope of 0. This means that the graph is constant.
