Tanzania [10]3 years ago

Answer:

The slope of the line perpendicular to the given line is 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the slope of the given line

we have

3x+2y=6

isolate the variable y

2y=-3x+6

y=-(3/2)x+3

The slope of the given line is m=-(3/2)

step 2

Find the slope of the line perpendicular to the given line

Remember that

If two lines are perpendicular, their slopes are opposite reciprocal of each other ( the product of their slopes is equal to -1)

so

m1*m2=-1

we have

m1=-3/2

so

m2=2/3

therefore

The slope of the line perpendicular to the given line is 2/3

Explain what terms and degrees are and how. How are they used to classify polynomials? Also explain why this polynomial (4x2y +
user100 [1]
When a polynomial has more than one variable, we need to look at each term. Terms are separated by + or - signs. Find the degree of each term by adding the exponents of each variable in it. <span>The degree of the polynomial is found by looking at the term with the highest exponent on its variables.
</span>
Polynomials can be classified in two different ways - by the number of terms and by their degree. A monomial is an expression with a single term. It is a real number, a variable, or the product of real numbers and variables. A polynomial is a monomial or the sum or difference of monomials. A polynomial can be arranged in ascending order, in which the degree of each term is at least as large as the degree of the preceding term, or in descending order, in which the degree of each term is no larger than the degree of the preceding term. 

The polynomial (4x^2y + 5xy) is classified as a 3rd degree binomial, because the monomial 4x^2y has degree equal to 3 and the monomial 5xy has degree equal to 2. The highest degree is 3, therefore the polynomial (4x^2y + 5xy) is classified as a 3rd degree polynomial. Since polynomial <span><span> (4x^2y + 5xy)</span> has two terms, then it is classified as binomial.</span>

An IQ test is designed so that the mean is 100 and the standard deviation is 12 for the population of normal adults. Find the sa
Julli [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that IQ mean is 100 and std dev = 12 for normal adults

Confidence level =90%\\Z critical value = 1.645\\Margin of error = 2\\Margin of error = 1.645* std error =2\\Std error = 1.216

Std error = \frac{12}{\sqrt{n} } =1.216

n=(\frac{12}{1.216} )^2 =97.38

i.e. sample size should be atleast 97

The required sample size is 97.

This is reasonable as this is greater than 30

Yes. This number of IQ test scores is a fairly large number.
