Hey!

So the first thing we realize is that it says that the equation is perpendicular to the line, meaning that the slope of the line is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the line you are given. Since we are given the slope of this line as 3/4 we can take the negative reciprocal of this to get -(4/3).

Now that we have the slope and a point on the line you can plug those into the equation y = mx + b to find b. The slope of the line is m and the point contains the x and y values.

5 = -(4/3)(-3) + b

5 = 4 + b

1 = b

Since we have the y-intercept and the slope now we can plug that into the slope-intercept form equation to get the equation we need:

y = -(4/3)x + 1

A researcher for an airline interviews all of the passengers on five randomly selected flights.
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer

Cluster sampling. See explanation below.

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case they not use random sampling since we are selecting people from flights. Because we select just 5 random flights.

Is not stratified sampling since we don't have strata clearly defined on this case, and other important thing is that in order to apply this method we need homogeneous strata groups and that's not satisfied on this case.

Is not convenience sampling because they NOT use a non probability method in order to select the people from the flights.

So then the only possible method is cluster sampling since we have clusters clearly defined (Passengers from the airlines), and we satisfy the condition of homogeneous characteristics on the clusters and an equal chance of being a part of the sample, since we are selecting RANDOMLY, the 5 flights to take the information.

The buyer for a chain of stores purchased lawn ornaments in bulk, paying $23 each. The stores will sell each lawn ornament for $
Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

The markup percentage is 61.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The cost price of each ornaments = $23

The sell price of each ornament = $37.08

Let The markup percentage = x

<u>Now, According to question</u>

Markup percentage = \dfrac{s.p - c.p}{c.p} × 100

Or, x% = \dfrac{37.08 - 23}{23}

Or, x% = \dfrac{14.08}{23}

Or, x% = 0.612

∴ x = 0.612 × 100

I.e x = 61.2

So, The The markup percentage = x = 61.2

Hence, The markup percentage is 61.2 Answer
