Answer:

The answer to your question is the letter b)    y = -3x + 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Original line  y = 1/3x - 2

Point = (3, 2)

New line = ? (perpendicular)

Process

1.- Get the slope of the original line

The slope is the coefficient of the x in the line equation.

       y = 1/3x - 2

       slope = m = 1/3

2.- Find the slope of the new line

       new slope = -3  (because the lines are perpendicular)

3.- Find the equation of the new line

         y - y1 = m(x - x1)

 x1 = 3    y1 = 2

-Substitution

        y - 2 = -3(x - 3)

-Simplification

        y - 2 = -3x + 9

        y = -3x + 9 + 2

-Result

       y = -3x + 11

Pavel [41]
1: 40%
2: 30%
3: 20%

If we know one of the succeeded, then 
1: 44.44%
2: 33.33%
3: 22.22%

If under the circumstance that they all fail to meet a strong leader, the board picks one of them at random,
1: 43.33%
2: 33.33%
3: 23.33%

The first person has a 2 in 5 chance of randomly getting a strong leader. If the first person doesn't find a strong leader, the second person has a 2/4 chance of getting a strong leader. If neither the first nor second person gets a strong leader, the third sales person has a 2/3 chance of getting a strong leader.

1: 2/5=40% Chance
2: (3/5)*(2/4)=30% Chance You have to take the probability the first rep failed to get a strong leader, then multiply by the probability the second rep gets a strong leader.
3: (3/5)*(2/4)*(2/3)=20% You have to take the probability both the other people failed, then multiply by the probability they succeeded.

Which sample fairly represents the population? Select two options.
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

b) observing every person walking down Main Street at 5 p.m. one evening to determine the percentage of people who wear glasses.

d) taking a poll in the lunch room (where all students currently have to eat lunch) to determine the number of students who want to be able to leave campus during lunch.

Step-by-step explanation:

These are the two options that are most likely to give you a sample that fairly represents the population. In the first case, the sample that you obtain is likely to be a good representation because Main Street is a road where a great variety of people walk. Moreover, 5 pm is also a time that will allow you to see  a great number of different people. The second answer will also give you a good sample, as the poll would include all students in the lunch room, which is all students in the school (the whole population).

Answer:  Perimeter = 66 cm and area =66\ m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of rectangle is given by :-

P=2(l+w), where l is length and w is width of the rectangle.

Given : A rectangle has a length of 5.50 m and a width of 12.0 m .

Then, the perimeter of rectangle :

P=2(12+5.50)\\\\\Rightarrow\ P=2(17.50)=35\ m

Also, area of rectangle is given by :-

A=l\times w=5.50\times12=66 \ m^2

Area of rectangle = 66\ m^2
