The answer is 5

If two slopes are perpendicular to one another, their product will be -1.
This can be shown as;
(-1/5) * x = -1
x = (-1)/(-1/5)
x = 5

Katrina wants to estimate the proportion of adults who read at least 10 books last year. to do​ so, she obtains a simple random
Vaselesa [24]
E=Z*sqrt (p(1-p)/N), where E= error margin, p=proportion, N=sample size

Katrina's margin error at 85% confidence interval: E=1.96*sqrt (p(1-p)/100) = 0.196 sqrt (1(1-p))

Mathew's margin error at 99% confidence interval: E= 2.58*sqrt (p(1-p)/400) = 0.129 sqrt (p(1-p))

Since both obtained same estimate of proportion (that is, value of p), it can be seen that Mathew's estimate will have a small error (That is, 0.129 is smaller than 0.196). This can be attributed to larger sample size although a wider confidence (99%) interval was considered.

Solve 9,159 divided by 7
aniked [119]

Answer:

(9159 / 7 = 1308.429)

Step-by-step explanation:

Simply multiply the last digit by 2 and then subtract the product from the remaining digits.

If that difference is divisible by 7, then 9159 is divisible by 7.

The last digit in 9159 is 9 and the remaining digits are 915. Thus, the math to determine if 9159 is divisible by 7 using our alternate method is:

915 - (9 x 2) = 897

Since 897 is not divisible by 7, 9159 is also not divisible by 7.

Therefore, the answer to "Is 9159 Divisible By 7?" is no.

(9159 / 7 = 1308.429)
