What would be a line perpendicular to (2,3) (5,5)?

ladessa [460]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

3x + 2y = 0 or y = -3/2x

Step-by-step explanation:

The relationship between a line and its perpendicular is that their slopes are opposite reciprocals of each other. So, the thing you need to know about the line through the two given points is its slope. That is found using the slope formula:

m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1) . . . . . . where the two give points are (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)

Putting your point coordinates in this formula gives ...

m = (5 -3)/(5 -2) = 2/3

Then the perpendicular line will have a slope that is the opposite reciprocal:

slope of perpendicular = -1/m = -1/(2/3) = -3/2

You have not said whether the perpendicular line must meet any other requirement, so the simplest one we can write is ...

y = mx + b . . . . . m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

y = -3/2x . . . . . . has a y-intercept of 0 (goes through the origin)

Multiplying by 2 and adding 3x gives ...

3x + 2y = 0 . . . . . standard form equation

_____

<em>Comment on the attachment</em>

The geometry program I used to create the attachment wrote the equation of the line through the given points as ...

2x -3y = -5 . . . . . standard form equation

The equation of a perpendicular line can be created from this form by swapping the x- and y-coefficients and negating one of them. Simply swapping the coefficients would give ...

-3x +2y = <something>

In standard form, we want the leading coefficient to be positive, so we can choose to negate the x-coefficient. The <something> can be zero to make the line go through the origin.

3x +2y = 0 . . . . . a perpendicular in standard form

__

If you need to have the line go through a particular point, you can determine the constant value (on the right of the = sign) by putting the point coordinates in for x and y.

_____

Method summary:

find the slope of the given line
determine its opposite reciprocal to find the slope of the perpendicular line
use that new slope in an appropriate form to have the line go where you want it to go. (Point-Slope Form is often useful)

In a study researchers reported the mean BMI for men 60 and older to be 24.7 with a standard deviation of 3.3 and the mean BMI f

erica [24]

Answer:

Probability that the difference in the mean BMI (men-women) for 45 women and 50 men selected independently and at random will exceed 2.1 = 0.2451

Step-by-step explanation:

The central limit theorem helps us to obtain the mean and the standard deviation of any sampling distribution.

Given that the sample was obtained from a normal distribution or an approximately normal distribution & it was obtained using random sampling techniques with each variable independent of one another and with each sample with adequate sample size,

Mean of sampling distribution (μₓ) = Population mean (μ)

Standard deviation of the sampling distribution = σₓ = (σ/√N)

where σ = population mean

N = Sample size

For the 45 women

μₓ = μ = 23.1

σₓ = (σ/√N) = (3.7/√45) = 0.552

For the 50 men

μₓ = μ = 24.7

σₓ = (σ/√N) = (3.3/√50) = 0.467

To find the probability that the difference in the mean BMI (men-women) for 45 women and 50 men selected independently and at random will exceed 2.1, we need to combine the distributions.

New distribution = (BMI of men) - (BMI of women) = x = X₁ - X₂

When independent distributions are combined, the combined mean and combined variance are given through the relation

Combined mean = Σ λᵢμᵢ

(summing all of the distributions in the manner that they are combined)

Combined variance = Σ λᵢ²σᵢ²

(summing all of the distributions in the manner that they are combined)

λ₁ = 1, λ₂ = -1

μ₁ = 24.7, μ₂ = 23.1

σ₁ = 0.467, σ₂ = 0.552

Combined mean = (Mean of men) - (Mean of women) = 24.7 - 23.1 = 1.6

Combined Variance = (1²×0.467²) + [(-1)²×(0.552²)] = 0.522793

Combined standard deviation = √0.522793 = 0.723

Probability that the difference in the mean BMI (men-women) for 45 women and 50 men selected independently and at random will exceed 2.1 = P(x > 2.1)

Note that the resulting distribution from the combination of distributions is still a normal distribution since the distributions combined were normal distributions too.

Hence, we first normalize or standardize 2.1

The standardized score for any value is the value minus the mean then divided by the standard deviation.

z = (x - μ)/σ = (2.1 - 1.6)/0.723 = 0.69

To determine the required probability

P(x > 2.1) = P(z > 0.69)

We'll use data from the normal distribution table for these probabilities

P(x > 2.1) = P(z > 0.69) = 1 - P(z ≤ 0.69)

= 1 - 0.7549

= 0.2451

Hope this Helps!!!

Which of the following trigonometric inequalities has no solution over the interval 0 ≤ x ≤ 2pi radians?

valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

A .cos(x)<1

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the first inequality

cos(x)<1

x < arccos 1

x<0

This therefore does not have a solution within the range 0 ≤ x ≤ 2pi

x cannot be leas than 0. According to the range not value, 0≤x which is equivalent to x≥0. Thus means otvis either x = 0 or x> 0.

For the second option

.cos(x/2)<1

x/2< arccos1

x/2<0

x<0

This inequality also has solution within the range 0 ≤ x ≤ 2pi since 0 falls within the range of values.

For the inequality csc(x)<1

1/sin(x) < 1

1< sin(x)

sinx>1

x>arcsin1

x>90°

x>π/2

This inequality also has solution within the range 0 ≤ x ≤ 2pi since π/2 falls within the range of values

For the inequality csc(x/2)<1

1/sin(x/2) < 1

1< sin(x/2)

sin(x/2)> 1

x/2 > arcsin1

X/2 > 90°

x>180°

x>π

This value of x also has a solution within the range.

Therefore option A is the only inequality that does not have a solution with the range.
