Find the equation of the first line using the two given points: (1,-1) (-1,-5)

Slope = change in Y over change in x:

Slope = (-5-(-1)) / (-1-(1) = -4/-2 = 2

Now find y intercept: y - y1 = m(x-x1) = y -(-1) = 2(x-1)

Simplify to get y = 2x-3

Now a perpendicular line has a opposite reciprocal slope.

The perpendicular line would be y = -1/2x - 3

You are told the y intercept is -4 units greater, so add -4 to -3 to get -7

The answer would be A. y = -1/2x-7

A sport analyst wants to determine the mean salary of a Baseball player for 2015. He believes an estimate of this average salary

djyliett [7]

Answer:

The large sample size 'n' = 199.6569≅ 200

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

Given Standard deviation of salary for all baseball players for 2015 is about $5,478,384.55

Standard deviation of of salary for all baseball players for 2015

(S.D ) σ = $5,478,384.55

Given estimate of this average salary for all baseball players for 2015

= $497,000

Given Margin of error of error is = $497,000

Level of significance ∝ = 80%

The critical value Z₀.₂₀ = 1.282

Step(ii):-

Margin of error of error is determined by

$M.E = \frac{Z_{0.20} S.D}{\sqrt{n} }$

$497,000 = \frac{1.282 X 5,478,384.55}{\sqrt{n} }$

Cross multiplication , we get

$\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.282 X 5,478,384.55}{497,000 }$

On calculation , we get

√n = 14.13

Squaring on both sides, we get

n = 199.6569

Conclusion:-

The large sample size 'n' = 199.6569≅ 200

Complete the following proof. Given: m ∠XOY = m ∠WOV m YZ = m ZW Prove: m XZ = m ZV

horsena [70]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

m ∠XOY = m ∠WOV

so, m XY = m WV --- (i)

{ If angle subtended by two arcs at the center are equal, then length of arc are equal}

m YZ = m ZW ------- (ii) {given}

Add (i) and (ii)

XY + YZ = WV + ZW

XZ = ZV

Hence proved.
