Part A. What is the slope of a line that is perpendicular to a line whose equation is −2y=3x+7?

Rewrite the equation  −2y=3x+7 in the form y=-\dfrac{3}{2}x-\dfrac{7}{2}. Here the slope of the given line is  m_1=-\dfrac{3}{2}. If m_2 is the slope of perpendicular line, then

m_1\cdot m_2=-1,\\ \\m_2=-\dfrac{1}{m_1}=\dfrac{2}{3}.

Answer 1: \dfrac{2}{3}

Part B. The slope of the line y=−2x+3 is -2. Since -\dfrac{3}{2}\neq -2\quad \text{and}\quad \dfrac{2}{3}\neq -2, then lines from part A are not parallel to line a.

Since -2\cdot \left(-\dfrac{3}{2}\right)=3\neq -1\quad \text{and}\quad -2\cdot \dfrac{2}{3}=-\dfrac{4}{3}\neq -1, both lines are not perpendicular to line a.

Answer 2: Neither parallel nor perpendicular to line a

Part C. The line parallel to the line 2x+5y=10 has the equation 2x+5y=b. This line passes through the point (5,-4), then

2·5+5·(-4)=b,

10-20=b,

b=-10.

Answer 3: 2x+5y=-10.

Part D. The slope of the line y=\dfrac{x}{4}+5 is \dfrac{1}{4}. Then the slope of perpendicular line is -4 and the equation of the perpendicular line is y=-4x+b. This line passes through the point (2,7), then

7=-4·2+b,

b=7+8,

b=15.

Answer 4: y=-4x+15.

Part E. Consider vectors \vec{p}_1=(-c-0,0-(-d))=(-c,d)\quad \text{and}\quad \vec{p}_2=(0-b,a-0)=(-b,a). These vectors are collinear, then

\dfrac{-c}{-b}=\dfrac{d}{a},\quad \text{or}\quad -\dfrac{a}{b}=-\dfrac{d}{c}.

Answer 5: -\dfrac{a}{b}=-\dfrac{d}{c}.

Answer:

(a) 2/3

(b) neither parallel nor perpendicular ; parallel; perpendicular

(c) y = (-2/5)*x - 2

(d) y = -4*x + 15

(e) -a*c = -d*b

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

What is the slope of a line that is perpendicular to a line whose equation is −2y=3x+7 ?

First you need to rearrange the equation so that y term is isolated, in this case you should pass the -2 (which multiplies in one side) dividing to the other side.

y = (3*x + 7)/(-2)  

y = (-3/2)*x + 7

The slope of any line is the term next to x, in this case -3/2

Two lines are perpendicular if the multiplication of each line slopes is equal to -1. For example, given lines y = m1*x+b1 and y = m2*x+b2 where m1 is the slope of the first line and m2 of the second one, they are perpendicular if m1*m2 = -1

In this case we should solve:

(-3/2)*m2 = -1

m2 = 2/3

(b)

Line a is represented by the equation y=−2x+3 . How do these equations compare to line a? Drag and drop the equations into the boxes to complete the table. Parallel to line a Perpendicular to line a Neither parallel nor perpendicular to line a y=2x−1, y=−2x+5, y=1/2x+7

Two lines are parallel if they have the same slope.  

a's slope is -2  

Any line perpendicular to a must have an slope of 1/2,  so that -2*1/2 = -1

in y=2x−1 slope is 2 -> they are neither parallel nor perpendicular

in y=−2x+5 slope is -2 -> they are parallel  

in y=1/2x+7 slope is 1/2 -> they are perpendicular

(c)

What is the equation of a line that passes through the point (5, −4) and is parallel to the line whose equation is 2x + 5y = 10?

Rearranging the equation:

5*y = -2*x + 10  

y = (-2*x + 10)/5

y = (-2/5)*x + 2

Our equation has the form y = m*x + b where m = -2/5. In order to find b we replace the known point (5, -4) in the equation:

y = (-2/5)*x + b  

-4 = (-2/5)*5 + b  

-4 = -2 + b

-2 = b

Finally, y = (-2/5)*x - 2

(d)

What is the equation of a line that passes through the point (2, 7) and is perpendicular to the line whose equation is y=x/4+5?

Calling m1 = 1/4 the slope of the known equation, we have to find a slope m2 which fulfill m1*m2 = -1. Replacing:

1/4*m2 = -1

m2 = -4

In the same way as before, we replace the point (2, 7) in the general equation form:

y = -4*x + b

7 = -4*2 + b

7 = -8 +b

15 = b

Finally, y = -4*x + 15

(e)

In this diagram, which equation could you prove to be true in order to conclude that the lines are parallel?

The slope of a line can be  computed by m = (y1 - y2)/(x1 -x2) where (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are points in the line

For the above line  

(x1, y1) = (b, 0)

(x2, y2) = (0, a)

Replacing

m1 = (0 - a)/(b -0) = -a/b

For the below line  

(x1, y1) = (-c, 0)

(x2, y2) = (0, -d)

Replacing

m2 = (0 - (-d) )/( (-c) - 0) = -d/c

m1 = m2,  so that both lines are parallel

-a/b = -d/c

-a*c = -d*b

Amirah's family is driving to her uncle's house. The family travels 383.5 miles between 10:15 am and 4:45 pm. Calculate the fami
ddd [48]

Answer:

The family's average rate of travel for the day was 59.0 MPH.

Step-by-step explanation:

From 10:15AM to 4:45PM, they travelled a distance of 383.5 miles and a total of 6 hours and 30 minutes.

There are 60 minutes in an hour. 30 minutes translates into 1/2 an hour or .5

So, 6.5 hours and a total distance of 383.5 miles.

Velocity (MPH) = Distance (in miles) / Time (in hours)

MPH means Miles Per Hour

Variables:

Velocity (MPH) = x

Distance (in miles) = 383.5

Time (in hours) = 6.5

Plug in the variables into the formula

x = 383.5 / 6.5

Divide

x = 59.0 MPH

At the local college, a study found that students earned an average of 14.8 credit hours per semester. A sample of 94 students w
ozzi

Answer:

By the Central Limit Theorem, the best point estimate for the average number of credit hours per semester for all students at the local college is 14.8.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}.

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

Mean of the sample:

14.8 credit hours per semester.

So

By the Central Limit Theorem, the best point estimate for the average number of credit hours per semester for all students at the local college is 14.8.

Using the scientific calculator or graphing calculator find the inverse tangent of the ratio. Round to the nearest degree. 3/1
professor190 [17]

Given:

The ratio is \dfrac{3}{1}.

To find:

Inverse tangent of the given ratio.

Solution:

We know that,

Inverse tangent of the ratio \dfrac{3}{1} = \tan^{-1}\dfrac{3}{1}

                                                 = \tan^{-1}3

Using scientific or graphing calculator, we get

Inverse tangent of the ratio \dfrac{3}{1} = 71.565^\circ

Round to the nearest degree

Inverse tangent of the ratio \dfrac{3}{1}\approx 72^\circ

Therefore, the correct option is C.
