Find the equation of line b described below, in slope-intercept form

Serjik [45]

Given:

Line a is perpendicular to line b .

Line a passes through the points (1,-8) and (9,-12) .

Line b passes through the point (-8, -16).

To find:

The equation of b.

Solution:

Line a passes through the points (1,-8) and (9,-12) . So, slope of line a is

$m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

$m_a=\dfrac{-12-(-8)}{9-1}$

$m_a=\dfrac{-12+8}{8}$

$m_a=\dfrac{-4}{8}$

$m_a=-\dfrac{1}{2}$

Product of slopes of two perpendicular lines is -1.

$m_a\times a_b=-1$

$-\dfrac{1}{2}\times a_b=-1$

$b=2$

Slope of line b is 2.

If a line passing through a point $(x_1,y_1)$ with slope m, then equation of line is

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

Line b passing through (-8,-16) with slope 2. So, equation of line b is

$y-(-16)=2(x-(-8))$

$y+16=2(x+8)$

$y+16=2x+16$

Subtract 16 from both sides.

$y=2x$

Therefore, the equation of line b is $y=2x$ .

50% of the surface area of a piece of bread is crust what is the height

andrezito [222]

The formula for surface area is SA = 2 (wl + hl + hw). Plugging in the numbers that we know, we get SA = 2 (100 + 10h +10h). We know that the crust accounts for half of the surface area.

The surface area was not provided so this is the closest I can go without the provided surface area. I hope this helps you :)

Suppose that a brand of lightbulb lasts on average 1730 hours with a standard deviation of 257 hours. Assume the life of the lig

Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

P [ 1689 ≤ X ≤ 2267 ] = 54,88 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Distribution

Mean μ₀ = 1730

Standard Deviation σ = 257

We need to calculate z scores for the values 1689 and 2267

We apply formula for z scores

z = ( X - μ₀ ) /σ

X = 1689 then

z = (1689 - 1730)/ 257 ⇒ z = - 41 / 257

z = - 0.1595

And from z table we get for z = - 0,1595

We have to interpolate

- 0,15 0,4364

- 0,16 0,4325

Δ = 0.01 0.0039

0,1595 - 0,15 = 0.0095

By rule of three

0,01 0,0039

0,0095 x ?? x = 0.0037

And 0,4364 - 0.0037 = 0,4327

Then P [ X ≤ 1689 ] = 0.4327 or P [ X ≤ 1689 ] = 43,27 %

And for the upper limit 2267 z score will be

z = ( X - 1730 ) / 257 ⇒ z = 537 / 257

z = 2.0894

Now from z table we find for score 2.0894

We interpolate and assume 0.9815

P [ X ≤ 2267 ] = 0,9815

Ths vale already contains th value of P [ X ≤ 1689 ] = 0.4327

Then we subtract to get 0,9815 - 0,4327 = 0,5488

Finally

P [ 1689 ≤ X ≤ 2267 ] = 0,5488 or P [ 1689 ≤ X ≤ 2267 ] = 54,88 %

I need help answering this question.

Darina [25.2K]

Her credits need to be AT LEAST EQUAL TO OR GREATER THAN 144 (credit hours) so we can eliminate choices B and D.

She already completed 4 semesters in which she receives 15 credit per semester.

This expression can be written as 4(15).

She needs to do a certain remaining hours of credit which can be represented by c and only c without any other coefficient.

So, the most reasonable choice here is A.
