Slope = (3 + 1)/(1 - 5) = 4/-4 = -1

answer
slope = -1

The slope of that line is -1. To find this you do the change of the y coordinates, or do -1-3, over the change of the x coordinates, or 5-1. You then get -4/4, which reduces to -1.

Answer:

See proof below

Step-by-step explanation:

Two triangles are said to be congruent if one of the 4 following rules is valid

  1. The three sides are equal
  2. The three angles are equal
  3. Two angles are the same and a corresponding side is the same
  4. Two sides are equal and the angle between the two sides is equal

Let's consider the two triangles ΔABC and ΔAED.

ΔABC sides are AB, BC and AC

ΔAED sides are AD, AE and ED

We have AE = AC and EB = CD

So AE + EB = AC + CD

But AE + EB = AB and AC+CD = AD

We have

AB of ΔABC  = AD of ΔAED

AC of ΔABC =  AE of ΔAED

Thus two sides the these two triangles. In order to prove that the triangles are congruent by rule 4, we have to prove that the angle between the sides is also equal. We see that the common angle is ∡BAC = ∡EAC

So  triangles ΔABC and ΔAED are congruent

That means all 3 sides of these triangles are equal as well as all the angles

Since BC is the third side of ΔABC and ED the third side of ΔAED, it follows that

BC = ED  Proved

If cosVz=0.1673413807, find Vz.<br> Thanks- thold you it was easy.
12345 [234]

Answer:

Vz = arccos(0.1673413807) = 80.37º

Step-by-step explanation:

The inverse function of the cosine is the arc cosine.

That means, that if we have that cos a = 1, a is the angle which has cosine equals 1, so a = arccos(1) = 0º.

In this problem, we have that:

cos(Vz) = 0.1673413807

Vz = arccos(0.1673413807) = 80.37º

You are given the summer reading list for your English class. There are 8 books on the list. You decide you will read all. In ho
vekshin1
Consider for a moment building a tree with all possible choices. The first row would contain 8 books (each possible choice for the first book). Then, the second row would contain 7 books for each book in the first row (the choices possible for the second book). Otherwise, it would be 8*7. Following this principal, we continue to multiply down to 1. 8*7*6*5*4*3*2*1. This is also known as 8!, a factorial.
Finally, 8! = 40,320

On the planet of Mercury, 4-year-olds average 3 hours a day unsupervised. Most of the unsupervised children live in rural areas,
erastova [34]

Answer:

a

The distribution of  X is normal

b

P(X  <  1.4) = 0.12654

c

P(X  >  3.5) = 0.36051

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The population mean is  \mu =  3 \  hours

   The standard deviation is  \sigma  =  1.4 \ hours

Generally given from the question that the amount of time spent alone by the population size is normally distributed then then the distribution of X (i.e the amount of time spent by the sample size (the one Mercurian)) will be normally distributed

  Generally the probability that the child spend less than one hour in a day is mathematically represented as

        P(X  <  1.4) =  P(\frac{X - \mu}{\sigma} < \frac{1.4 - \mu}{\sigma}   )

Here \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma }  =  Z (The\ standardized\ value\ of\  X)

So

      P(X  <  1.4) =  P(Z < \frac{1.4 - 3.0}{1.4}   )

     P(X  <  1.4) =  P(Z < -1.1429  )

From the z-table the value of  

        P(Z < -1.1429  )=0.12654

So     P(X  <  1.4) = 0.12654

Generally the percentage of children that spends over 3.5 hours unsupervised is mathematically represented as

        P(X  >  3.5) =  P(\frac{X - \mu}{\sigma} > \frac{3.5 - \mu}{\sigma}   )

        P(X >  3.5) =  P(Z > \frac{3.5 - 3.0}{1.4}   )

        P(X >  3.5) =  P(Z > 0.3571  )

From the z-table the value of  

        P(Z >0.3571  )=0.36051

So     P(X  >  3.5) = 0.36051
