Answer:

B(-2,-6)

Step-by-step explanation:

The midpoint of AB is M, then A(8,4), M(3,-1)

So we can find:

$x_{B} =2x_{M} -x_{A}= 2*3-8= -2\\y_{B}= 2y_{M} -y_{A} = 2*(-1)- 4= -6\\$

then B(-2,-6), hope that useful.

the equation of the line a is given as y = -3/4 x -2. Suppose the line a is parallel to line b and lime t is perpendicular to li

Burka [1]

Answer: The equation for line b is $y = -\frac{3}{4}x + 5$

The equation for line t is $y= \frac{4}{3} x+5$

The attachment shows the original line in green, the parallel line b in red, and the perpendicular line t in blue.

Step-by-step explanation: Use slope intercept form, y = mx + b

The given coordinate, (0,5) is on the y-axis, so 5 will be the y-intercept of the equation. Keep the slope of the original equation and substitute the new value for "b"

To write the equation for line t

Both lines share the y-intercept, (0,5) so the "b" term will be the same. The slope of a perpendicular line is the reciprocal of the original slope with the opposite sign.

So invert 3/4 to become 4/3 and change the negative sign to positive.

The resulting equation is y = 4x/3 + 5

A recent poll of 80 randomly selected Californians showed that 38% ( = 0.38) believe they are doing all that they can to conserv

Elanso [62]

The margin of error given the proportion can be found using the formula

$z* \sqrt{ \frac{p(1-p)}{n} }$

Where
$z*$ is the z-score of the confidence level
$p$ is the sample proportion
$n$ is the sample size

We have
$z*=2.58$
$p=0.38$
$n=80$

Plugging these values into the formula, we have:
$2.58 \sqrt{ \frac{0.38(1-0.38)}{80} } =0.14$

The result 0.14 as percentage is 14%

Margin error is 38% ⁺/₋ 14%

There is a bag with 50 popsicles inside. 5

Allisa [31]

Answer:

25%

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that there are ten purple popsicles. Together without the purple popsicles, there are 40 popsicles in total. Therefore there is a 10/40 chance to get purple. We need to turn this into a percentage so we do (10 / 40) x 100. This would equal to 25%, therefore, there is a 25% probability to get a purple popsicle.
