Answer:

The answer is y=-1/2x-1

Step-by-step explanation:

Because to be able to be perpendicular the reciprocals have to be opposite and then end the end will equal -1, so 2*-1/2= -1.

Hey there! :)

3 - (-2) = ??

Let's keep in mind that a negative times a negative is always a positive!

In addition, let's also remember that parenthesis mean multiplication - so that's how we know that we're multiplying!

So, since a negative times a negative equals a positive, then we know that this question is essentially just asking us what 3 + 2 is!

In case we aren't sure how to do this, let's look at our fingers! We start out with 3 fingers, and add 2 more fingers to it! So, 3 fingers to 2 fingers equals 5 fingers!

Therefore, our answer is 5.

3 -(-2) = 5

Suppose the line of best fit is being found for some data points that have an r-value of 0.657. If the standard deviation of the
oksian1 [2.3K]
We are given a line with the following data:

r-value = 0.657 (r)
standard deviation of x-coordinates = 2.445 (Sx)
standard deviation of y-coordinates = 9.902 (Sy)

We are asked to find the slope of the line up to 3 decimal places.

To find the slope of the line, based on the data that we have, we can use this formula:

slope, b = r * (Sy / Sx) 

substitute the values to the formula:

b = 0.657 * ( 9.902 / 2.445 )

Solve for the b.

Therefore, the slope of the line is 

b = 2.66078, round off to three decimal places:

b = 2.661 is the slope of the line.

By selling an article for $250, a man makes a profit of 25%. what was the cost price of the article.
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

200 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say p equals the cost price of the article. Since the man made 25% profit, that means he got 100% of what he originally paid plus another 25% of what he originally paid. In other words, he sold the article for 125% of the original price. Converting that to a decimal we get:

250=p*1.25

Some simple division gets us a cost price of 200 dollars.
