Find the equation of the line through (8,−6) which is perpendicular to the line y=x3−7.

Answer:

y = (-1/3)(x + 10)

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the new (perpendicular) line is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the given line, which appears to be 3.  Thus, the perpendicular line has the slope -1/3.

Using the slope-intercept form y = mx + b, and substituting the givens, we obtain:

y = mx + b    =>    -6 = (-1/3)(8) + b, or

-6 = -8/3 + b.  We must solve for the y-intercept, b:

Multiplying all three terms by 3 removes the fraction:

-18 = -8 + 3b.  Thus, -10 = 3b, and so b must be -10/3.

The desired equation is    

y = (-1/3)x - 10/3, or

y = (-1/3)(x + 10)

Answer:

45

Step-by-step explanation:

You already solved that the 2 angles of the triangle are 55° and since all of the angles are on a straight line, they add up to 180°

and the equation becomes...

3x-10+55=180

3x+45=180

Subtract 45 from both sides

3x=135

Divide by 3

x= 45

Then to double check you plug 45 as the value of x in.

3(45)-10+55=180

135-10+55=180

125+55=180

180=180

Suppose you are determining whether the depth of groves cut into aluminum by a milling machine is equal to 1.7 mm. You cut 14 gr
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

For this case we want to check if the true mean for the depth of groves cut into aluminium by a machine is equal to 1.7 (null hypothesis) and the alternative hypothesis would be the complement different from 1.7. And the best system of hypothesis are:

Null hypothesis: \mu =1.7

Alternative hypothesis \mu \neq 1.7[/tx]And the best system of hypothesis are:3. This two-sided test:
H0: μ = 1.7 mm
H1: μ ≠ 1.7 mmStep-by-step explanation:For this case we want to check if the true mean for the depth of groves cut into aluminium by a machine is equal to 1.7 (null hypothesis) and the alternative hypothesis would be the complement different from 1.7.
