Slope. perp. -3/5

y - 7 = -3/5(x + 5)

y - 7 = -3/5x - 3

y = -3/5x + 4

Answer:

$\large\boxed{y=-\dfrac{3}{5}+4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\text{Let}\ k:y=m_1x+b_1,\ \text{and}\ l:y=m_2x+b_2,\ \text{then}\\\\l\ \perp\ k\iff m_1m_2=-1\to m_2=-\dfrac{1}{m_1}\\===========================\\\\\text{We have}\ m_1=\dfrac{5}{3},\ \text{therefore}\ m_2=-\dfrac{1}{\frac{5}{3}}=-\dfrac{3}{5}.\\\\l:y=-\dfrac{3}{5}x+b\\\\\text{Put the coordinates of the point (-5, 7) to the equation of a line }\ l:\\\\7=-\dfrac{3}{5}(-5)+b\\\\7=3+b\qquad\text{subtract 3 from both sides}\\\\4=b\to b=4\\\\\text{Fimally we have the equation:}\\\\l:y=-\dfrac{3}{5}+4$

Convert 123 cm to dam

kondaur [170]

123 centimeters into dekameters
0.123
10 centimeters = 1 decimeter
100 decimeters = 1 dekameter
Therefore, 100 centimeters = 10 decimeters = 0.1
23 centimeters = 2.3 decimeters = 0.023
0.1 + 0.023 = 0.123 dam

Find the probability of at least 6 failures in 7 trials of a binomial experiment in which the probability of success in any one

oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

$P(x \geq 6)=P(X=6)+P(X=7)$

And we can find the individual probabilities:

$P(X=6)=(7C6)(0.91)^6 (1-0.91)^{7-6}=0.358$

$P(X=7)=(7C7)(0.91)^7 (1-0.91)^{7-7}=0.517$

And replacing we got:

$P(x \geq 6)=P(X=6)+P(X=7)= 0.358+0.517=0.875$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable of interest, on this case we now that:

$X \sim Binom(n=7, p=1-0.09=0.91)$
