For this case we have that the generic equation of the line is given by:
 y = mx + b

 Where,
 m: slope of the line
 b: intersection with the y axis.
 Since the line is parallel to PQ, then the slopes are equal.
 We have then:
 m = 1/4.

 On the other hand we have:
 b = -3

 Substituting values we have:
 y = (1/4) x - 3
 Answer:
 The equation of the line that is parallel to line PQ and that has the and intercept b = -3 is:
 y = (1/4) x - 3

Gather information from relevant source and write about the he Earth's moon .<br>1000 words​
just olya [345]

Answer:

The Moon's orbit around Earth has a sidereal period of 27.3 days. During each synodic period of 29.5 days, the amount of visible surface illuminated by the Sun varies from none up to 100%, resulting in lunar phases that form the basis for the months of a lunar calendar. The Moon is tidally locked to Earth, which means that the length of a full rotation of the Moon on its own axis causes its same side (the near side) to always face Earth, and the somewhat longer lunar day is the same as the synodic period. That said, 59% of the total lunar surface can be seen from Earth through shifts in perspective due to libration.[17]

The most widely accepted origin explanation posits that the Moon formed about 4.51 billion years ago, not long after Earth, out of the debris from a giant impact between the planet and a hypothesized Mars-sized body called Theia. It then receded to a wider orbit because of tidal interaction with the Earth. The near side of the Moon is marked by dark volcanic maria ("seas"), which fill the spaces between bright ancient crustal highlands and prominent impact craters. Most of the large impact basins and mare surfaces were in place by the end of the Imbrian period, some three billion years ago. The lunar surface is relatively non-reflective, with a reflectance just slightly brighter than that of worn asphalt. However, because it has a large angular diameter, the full moon is the brightest celestial object in the night sky. The Moon's apparent size is nearly the same as that of the Sun, allowing it to cover the Sun almost completely during a total solar eclipse.

Which is bigger 2/5 or 4/9
Jlenok [28]
The easiest way to solve this comparison without any unusual comparisons is to find a common denominator for the two fractions.

2/5 = 18/45
4/9 = 20/45

Since 20/45 is bigger than 18/45, we know that 4/9 is greater than 2/5

Explain why segments connecting any pair of corresponding vertices of congruent pentagons are congruent. make a sketch to suppor
Veronika [31]

Answer:

Congruence between pentagons

Step-by-step explanation:

The relationship occurs because having two congruent Pentagons and generating a segment within them (or outside), congruence is extrapolated to the triangles generated within them. Thus, if there is congruence among the pentagons, it will exist between the formed triangles. In other words since the two pentagons are congruent, the corresponding angle pair is congruent. also the two corresponding side pairs are also congruent.

In the attached image for example, the ABCDE and KLMNO pentagons are congruent, so all of their internal division lines are also congruent (AC and KM)

A population is known to be normally distributed with a standard deviation of 2.8. (a) Compute the 95% confidence interval on th
Ugo [173]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean = sum of terms/number of terms

The mean of the given sample is

(8 + 9 + 10 + 13 + 14 + 16 + 17 + 20 + 21)/9 = 14.2

a)

For a confidence level of 95%, the corresponding z value is 1.96.

We will apply the formula

Confidence interval

= mean ± z ×standard deviation/√n

Where

n represents the number of samples

It becomes

14.2 ± 1.96 × 2.8/√9

= 14.2 ± 1.96 × 0.933

= 14.2 ± 1.83

The lower end of the confidence interval is 12.37

The upper end of the confidence interval is 16.03

b)

For a confidence level of 99%, the corresponding z value is 2.58

We will apply the formula

Confidence interval

= mean ± z ×standard deviation/√n

Where

n represents the number of samples

It becomes

14.2 ± 2.58 × 2.8/√9

= 14.2 ± 2.58 × 0.933

= 14.2 ± 2.4

The lower end of the confidence interval is 11.8

The upper end of the confidence interval is 16.6
