\bf \textit{perpendicular, negative-reciprocal slope for slope}\quad \cfrac{a}{b}\\\\
slope=\cfrac{a}{{{ b}}}\qquad negative\implies  -\cfrac{a}{{{ b}}}\qquad reciprocal\implies - \cfrac{{{ b}}}{a}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\

\bf \boxed{5i+12j}\implies 
\begin{array}{rllll}
\ \textless \ 5&,&12\ \textgreater \ \\
x&&y
\end{array}\quad slope=\cfrac{y}{x}\implies \cfrac{12}{5}
\\\\\\
slope=\cfrac{12}{{{ 5}}}\qquad negative\implies  -\cfrac{12}{{{ 5}}}\qquad reciprocal\implies - \cfrac{{{ 5}}}{12}
\\\\\\
\ \textless \ 12, -5\ \textgreater \ \ or\ \ \textless \ -12,5\ \textgreater \ \implies \boxed{12i-5j\ or\ -12i+5j}

if we were to place <5, 12> in standard position, so it'd be originating from 0,0, then the rise is 12 and the run is 5.

so any other vector that has a negative reciprocal slope to it, will then be perpendicular or "orthogonal" to it.

so... for example a parallel to <-12, 5> is say hmmm < -144, 60>, if you simplify that fraction, you'd end up with <-12, 5>, since all we did was multiply both coordinates by 12.

or using a unit vector for those above, then

\bf \textit{unit vector}\qquad \cfrac{\ \textless \ a,b\ \textgreater \ }{||\ \textless \ a,b\ \textgreater \ ||}\implies \cfrac{\ \textless \ a,b\ \textgreater \ }{\sqrt{a^2+b^2}}\implies \cfrac{a}{\sqrt{a^2+b^2}},\cfrac{b}{\sqrt{a^2+b^2}}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\cfrac{12,-5}{\sqrt{12^2+5^2}}\implies \cfrac{12,-5}{13}\implies \boxed{\cfrac{12}{13}\ ,\ \cfrac{-5}{13}}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\cfrac{-12,5}{\sqrt{12^2+5^2}}\implies \cfrac{-12,5}{13}\implies \boxed{\cfrac{-12}{13}\ ,\ \cfrac{5}{13}}

Han spent 75 minutes practicing the piano over the weekend. For each question, explain or show your reasoning. A. Priya practice
irakobra [83]

Answer:

a. 114 minutes

b. 48 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

Time spent over the piano is 75 minutes

a. if Priya practice violin for 152% as Han Practiced for piano

So the minutes she practice in Violin is

= 75 minutes × 152%

= 114 minutes

Likewise

b. If Tyler practiced for clarinet for 64% as Han Practiced for piano

So the minutes he practice in Clarinet is

= 75 minutes × 64%

= 48 minutes

The same is to be considered

Use the normal distribution of SAT critical reading scores for which the mean is 502 and the standard deviation is 116. Assume t
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

(a) 93.19%

(b) 267.3

Step-by-step explanation:

The population mean and standard deviation are given as 502 and 116 respectively.

Consider, <em>X</em> be the random variable that shows the SAT critical reading score is normally distributed.

(a) The percent of the SAT verbal scores are less than 675 can be calculated as:

P(X

Thus, the required percentage is 93.19%

(b)

The number of SAT verbal scores that are expected to be greater than 575 can be calculated as:

P(X>575)=P(\frac{x-502}{116}>\frac{575-502}{116}\\P(X>575)=P(Z>\frac{575-502}{116})\\P(X>575)=P(Z>0.6293)\\P(X>575)=0.2673

So,

Out of 1000 randomly selected SAT verbal scores, 1000(0.2673) = 267.3 are expected to have greater than 575.
