Write an equation for a line g(x) perpendicular to f(x) = 4x − 5 and passing through the point (4, 20). plz.....

1 answer:

4 0

The slopes of perpendicular lines are negative reciprocals.The slope of the given line is 4.The slope of the perpendicular is -1/4.
Now we need to find the equation of a line that has slope -1/4 and passes through the point (4, 20).
We use the point-slope form of the equation of a line, where m = slope, and the point is (x1, y1).
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 20 = -1/4(x - 4)
-4y + 80 = x - 4
x + 4y = 84

In how many ways can Susan arrange 7 books into 5 slots on her bookshelf?

KatRina [158]

Answer:

2520

Step-by-step explanation:

This is permutation question

<u>The formula for it: </u>

N = b!/(b-s)!, where N- number of ways, b- number of books, s- number of slots

<u>Finding the answer:</u>

N = 7!/(7-5)! = 7!/2! = 7*6*5*4*3 = 2520

The least squares regression line minimizes the sum of the:

lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

d) Squared differences between actual and predicted Y values.

Step-by-step explanation:

Regression is called "least squares" regression line. The line takes the form = a + b*X where a and b are both constants. Value of Y and X is specific value of independent variable.Such formula could be used to generate values of given value X.

For example,

suppose a = 10 and b = 7. If X is 10, then predicted value for Y of 45 (from 10 + 5*7). It turns out that with any two variables X and Y. In other words, there exists one formula that will produce the best, or most accurate predictions for Y given X. Any other equation would not fit as well and would predict Y with more error. That equation is called the least squares regression equation.

It minimize the squared difference between actual and predicted value.
