The vector wequalsaiplusbj is perpendicular to the line axplusbyequalsc and parallel to the line bxminusayequalsc. It is also tr

ue that the acute angle between intersecting lines that do not cross at right angles is the same as the angle determined by vectors that are either normal to the lines or parallel to the lines. Use this information to find the acute angle between the lines below.
a. x + √3y = 1
b. (1 - √3)x + (1 + √3)y = 8

Answer:

\theta=45^{\circ}

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the equation of lines

x+\sqrt 3y=1

(1-\sqrt 3)x+(1+\sqrt 3)y=8

According to question

The vector perpendicular to the lines is given by

i+\sqrt 3j and (1-\sqrt 3)i+(1+\sqrt 3)j

Therefore, the  angle between two vectors is given by

cos\theta=\frac{a_1a_2+b_1b_2}{\sqrt{a^2_1+b^2_1}\sqrt{a^2_2+b^2_2}}

Using the formula

cos\theta=\frac{1(1-\sqrt 3)+\sqrt 3(1+\sqrt 3)}{2\times 2\sqrt 2}

cos\theta=\frac{1-\sqrt 3+\sqrt 3+3}{4\sqrt 2}=\frac{1}{\sqrt 2}

cos\theta=cos 45^{\circ}

\theta=45^{\circ}

Hence, the acute angle between the lines is given by

\theta=45^{\circ}

The quarterly returns for a group of 51 mutual funds are well modeled by a Normal model with a mean of 7.4​% and a standard devi
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

A) x ≥ 0.074; B) x ≥ 0.108; C) x ≤ 0.006; D) 0.04 ≤ x ≤ 0.108

Step-by-step explanation:

68% of data will fall within 1 standard deviation of the mean; 95% of data will fall within 2 standard deviations of the mean; and 99.7% of data will fall within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

Breaking this down, we find that 34% of data fall from the mean to 1 standard deviation above the mean; 13.5% of data fall from 1 standard deviation above the mean to 2 standard deviations above the mean; 2.35% of data fall from 2 standard deviations above the mean to 3 standard deviations above the mean; and 0.15% of data fall above 3 standard deviations above the mean.

The same percentages apply to the standard deviations below the mean.

The highest 50% of data will fall from the mean to the end of the right tail.  This means the inequality for the highest 50% will be x ≥ 0.074, the mean.

The highest 16% of data will fall from 1 standard deviation above the mean to the end of the right tail.  This means the inequality for the highest 16% will be x ≥ 0.074+0.034, or x ≥ 0.108.

The lowest 2.5% of data will fall from 2 standard deviations below the mean to the end of the left tail.  This means the inequality for the lowest 2.5% will be x ≤ 0.074-0.034-0.034, or x ≤ 0.066.

The middle 68% will fall from 1 standard deviation below the mean to 1 standard deviation above the mean; this means the inequality for the middle 68% will be

0.074-0.034 ≤ x ≤ 0.074+0.034, or

0.04 ≤ x ≤ 0.108

If 32% of a number is 64, what is the number?<br> A. 50<br> B. 96<br> C.<br> 100<br> D. 200
mote1985 [20]
Let’s call the number “n.” 0,32n=64 (32% is 32 per cent-, or per hundred), and n=64*100/32=100*2=200. Therefore, the answer’s D.

Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

\dfrac{2}{5x}=-\dfrac{3}{15}+\dfrac{1}{x}\\\\\dfrac{1}{5}=\dfrac{5-2}{5x}\qquad\text{add $\frac{3}{15}-\frac{2}{5x}$}\\\\x=3\qquad\text{multiply by 5x}

Find the value of y please!
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

Y=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the two triangles are congruent you can set the two expressions equal to each other and solve from their.

step 1 )  8Y = 6Y + 8

step 2 ) isolate the variable to one side 8Y-6Y= 8 =>  2Y = 8

step 3 ) solve for Y 2Y/2 = 8/2

Solution Y=4
