Answer:
1.5
Step-by-step explanation:

Y = 1/3x ? 6....slope here is 1/3. A perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope. All that means is " flip " the slope and change the sign. So our perpendicular line will have a slope of -3 (see how I flipped 1/3 and changed the sign)
y = mx + b
slope(m) = -3
(-9,12)...x = -9 and y = 12
now we sub and find b, the y int
12 = -3(-9) + b
12 = 27 + b
12 - 27 = b
-15 = b
so ur perpendicular equation is : y = -3x - 15
Answer:
D, y = 3x − 7

Answer:
16% probability that a randomly chosen U.S. adult sleeps more than 8.7 hours per night
Step-by-step explanation:
The Empirical Rule(Standard Deviation) states that, for a normally distributed random variable:
68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.
95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviation of the mean.
99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.
In this problem, we have that:
Mean = 7.5
Standard deviation = 1.2
Using the Standard Deviation Rule, what is the probability that a randomly chosen U.S. adult sleeps more than 8.7 hours per night?
8.7 = 7.5 + 1.2
So 8.7 is one standard deviation above the mean.
By the Empirical Rule, 68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean. The other 100-68 = 32% are more than one standard deviation from the mean. Since the normal probability distribution is symmetric, 16% are more than one standard deviation below the mean and 16% are more than one standard deviation above the mean(above 8.7 hours)
So, 16% probability that a randomly chosen U.S. adult sleeps more than 8.7 hours per night
