Find equation of a line through 5 -3 that is parallel to y=1/2x+3
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

The equation of a line through (5 -3) that is parallel to y = 1/2 x+3 is

y = - 2 x  + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume the slope of the line whose equation we need to find is m 1.

The line parallel to the needed line  is:   y=1/2x+3

Comparing it with the general form: y = m x + C

we get m 2 = 1/2

Now, as Line 1 is Perpendicular to Line 2.

⇒ m 1 x m 2  = -1

⇒ m 1 x ( 1/2)  = -1

⇒ m 1  = - 2

Also, the point son the line 1 is given as: (x,y)  = (5,-3)

Put the value of point and Slope in y = m x + C to find the value of Y- INTERCEPT.

we get: -3 = (-2) (5) +  C

or, C = -3 + 10 = 7

⇒ C = 7

The general line equation is given as:  y = m x + C

Substituting  the values of C and m, we get:

y = - 2 x  + 7

Hence, the equation of a line through 5 -3 that is parallel to y = 1/2 x+3 is

y = - 2 x  + 7

The credit department of Lion's Department Store in Anaheim, California, reported that 30% of their sales are cash, 30% are paid
Oliga [24]

Answer:

Hence the probability that she paid cash is  0.105

Step-by-step explanation:  

P(cash) = 0.3  

P(credit card ) = 0.3  

P(debit card ) = 0.4  

P ( more than $50 | cash ) = 0.2  

P (more than $50 | credit card ) =0.9  

P (more than $ 50 |debit card ) = 0.6  

P ( more than $50) = P ( more than $50 | cash )* P (cash) + P (more than $50 credit card ) * P(credit card ) + P (more than $ 50 |debit card )* P(debit card )  

= 0.2 * 0.3 + 0.9 * 0.3 + 0.6* 0.4  

= 0.57  

P ( more than $50) = P ( more than $50 | cash )* P (cash) / P ( more than $50)  

= 0.2* 0.3 / 0.57  

= 0.105
