here the equation of path is -2x-7=y
let us find slope of this line by using y=mx+b
so slope m=-2
now new path is perpendicular to this path.
product of slopes of perpendiculars is -1
so slope of new path is 1/2
now it passes through (-2,-3) with slope 1/2
using y=mx+b to get value of b
-3=1/2(-2) +b
b=-2
plugging m=-1/2 and b=-2 in y=mx + b to get the final equation as
y=(-1/2) x -2 is the equation of new path
Answer:
Since the calculated value of z= 2.82 does not lie in the critical region the null hypothesis is accepted and it is concluded that the sample data support the authors' conclusion that the proportion of the country's boys who listen to music at high volume is greater than this proportion for the country's girls.
The value of p is 0 .00233. The result is significant at p < 0.10.
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Let the null and alternate hypothesis be
H0: μboys − μgirls > 0
against the claim
Ha: μboys − μgirls ≤ 0
2) The significance level is set at 0.01
3) The critical region is z ≤ ± 1.28
4) The test statistic
Z= p1-p2/ sqrt [pcqc( 1/n1+ 1/n2)]
Here p1= 397/768= 0.5169 and p2= 331/745=0.4429
pc = 397+331/768+745
pc= 0.4811
qc= 1-pc= 1-0.4811=0.5188
5) Calculations
Z= p1-p2/ sqrt [pcqc( 1/n1+ 1/n2)]
z= 0.5169-0.4429/√ 0.4811*0.5188( 1/768+ 1/745)
z= 2.82
6) Conclusion
Since the calculated value of z= 2.82 does not lie in the critical region the null hypothesis is accepted and it is concluded that the sample data support the authors' conclusion that the proportion of the country's boys who listen to music at high volume is greater than this proportion for the country's girls.

The value of p is 0 .00233. The result is significant at p < 0.10.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
7.5
David purchased some cookies at the cost of
5 for $4 (5/4=1.25) and
sold them at 4 for $5(4/5=0.80).
To find cost per cookie subtract 1.25-0.80=0.45
David made a profit of $180 in total ( divide profit per cookie cost: 180/0.45= 400)
How many cookies did David purchase to make that much money?
He needed to make 400 cookie to make the profit of $180.
