Answer:

y = -1/3x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The slopes of perpendicular lines are negative reciprocals.

The line y = 3x - 2 has slope 3.

The perpendicular line has slope -1/3.

Now we find the equation of the line that has slope -1/3 and passes through (-9, 5).

y = mx + b

y = -1/3x + b

5 = (-1/3)(-9) + b

5 = 3 + b

b = 2

The equation of the perpendicular is

y = -1/3x + 2

Find a vector a with representation given by the directed line segment ab.a(−2, 4), b(3, 5)

saul85 [17]

For this case what you should know is that the vector ab will be given by:
ab = b-a
We have then:
ab = (3, 5) - (- 2, 4)
ab = ((3 - (- 2)), (5-4))
ab = (5, 1)
Equivalently the vector is:
ab = 5i + 1j
Answer:
ab = 5i + 1j

Consider H0: μ = 45 versus H1: μ < 45. A random sample of 25 observations produced a sample mean of 41.8. Using α = .025 and

a_sh-v [17]

Given
$H0: \ \mu=45 \\ \\ H1: \ \mu\ \textless \ 45$
This is a one-tailed test.

$z= \frac{41.8-45}{6/ \sqrt{25} } = \frac{-3.2}{6/5} = \frac{-3.2}{1.2} =-2.6667$

$P(z\ \textless \ -2.6667)=0.00383$

Since the p-value of the sample statistic (0.00383) is less that the significant level (0.025), we reject the null hypothesis.

No, he has not watched the whole movie. The answer would be D. he only has 2/15 to watch.
