Yes; the slopes of segment EF and segment DF are the same.
No; the slopes of segment EF and segment DF are not opposite reciprocals.

Answer:

No; the slopes of segment EF and segment DF are not opposite reciprocals.

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope between two points O(e, f) and X (g,h) is given as:

slope\ of\ |OX|=\frac{h-f}{g-e}

The slopes of segment EF and segment DF are given below:

slope\ of\ |EF|=\frac{0-2}{0-(-2)}=-1\\\\slope\ of\ |DF|=\frac{0-(-2)}{0-(-1)}=2\\

For triangle DEF to be a right triangle, DF and EF are supposed to be perpendicular to each other. Two line are said to be perpendicular if the product of their slope is -1, i.e the slope of one line is the negative reciprocal (opposite reciprocal) of the other line.

Since the slope of DF and EF are not opposite reciprocals,  ΔDEF is not a right triangle.

Which relation is a function
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

Top left

Step-by-step explanation:


In order for it to be a function, it has to pass the vertical line test.  So draw a line down the middle of the graphs.  If it passes once, then it is a function, if it passes more than once it is not.

Solve the matrix equation for a, b, c, and d. [1 2] [a b] [6 5][3 4] [c d]= [19 8]
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

The answer is "\bold{\left[\begin{array}{cc}a&b\\c&d\end{array}\right] = \left[\begin{array}{cc}7&-2\\ -\frac{1}{2}&\frac{7}{2}\end{array}\right]}".

Step-by-step explanation:

\bold{\left[\begin{array}{cc}1&2\\3&4\end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{cc}a&b\\c&d\end{array}\right] = \left[\begin{array}{cc}6&5\\ 19&8\end{array}\right]}

Solve the L.H.S part:

\left[\begin{array}{cc}1&2\\3&4\end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{cc}a&b\\c&d\end{array}\right]\\\\\\\left[\begin{array}{cc}a+2c&b+2d\\3a+4c&3b+4d\end{array}\right]

After calculating the L.H.S part compare the value with R.H.S:

\left[\begin{array}{cc}a+2c&b+2d\\3a+4c&3b+4d\end{array}\right]= \left[\begin{array}{cc}6&5\\ 19&8\end{array}\right]} \\\\

\to a+2c =6....(i)\\\\\to b+2d =5....(ii)\\\\\to 3a+4c =19....(iii)\\\\\to 3b+4d = 8 ....(iv)\\\\

In equation (i) multiply by 3 and subtract by equation (iii):

\to 3a+6c=18\\\to 3a+4c=19\\\\\text{subtract}... \\\\\to 2c = -1\\\\\to  c= - \frac{1}{2}

put the value of c in equation (i):

\to a+ 2 (- \frac{1}{2})=6\\\\\to a- 2 \times \frac{1}{2}=6\\\\\to a- 1=6\\\\\to a =6 +1\\\\\to a = 7\\

In equation (ii) multiply by 3 then subtract by equation (iv):

\to 3b+6d=15\\\to 3b+4d=8\\\\\text{subtract...}\\\\\to 2d = 7\\\\\to d= \frac{7}{2}\\

put the value of d in equation (iv):

\to 3b+4 (\frac{7}{2})=8\\\\\to 3b+4 \times \frac{7}{2}=8\\\\\to 3b+14=8\\\\\to 3b =8-14\\\\\to 3b = -6\\\\\to b= \frac{-6}{3}\\\\\to b= -2

The final answer is "\bold{\left[\begin{array}{cc}a&b\\c&d\end{array}\right] = \left[\begin{array}{cc}7&-2\\ -\frac{1}{2}&\frac{7}{2}\end{array}\right]}".

According to the Vivino website, suppose the mean price for a bottle of red wine that scores 4.0 or higher on the Vivino Rating
Natali [406]

Answer:

a) Null and alternative hypothesis

H_0: \mu=32.48\\\\H_a:\mu< 32.48

b) Test statistic t=-1.565

P-value = 0.0612

NOTE: the sample size is n=65.

c) Do not reject H0. We cannot conclude that the price in Providence for a bottle of red wine that scores 4.0 or higher on the Vivino Rating System is less than the population mean of $32.48.

d) Null and alternative hypothesis

H_0: \mu=32.48\\\\H_a:\mu< 32.48

Test statistic t=-1.565

Critical value tc=-1.669

t>tc --> Do not reject H0

Do not reject H0. We cannot conclude that the price in Providence for a bottle of red wine that scores 4.0 or higher on the Vivino Rating System is less than the population mean of $32.48.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a hypothesis test for the population mean.

The claim is that the mean price in Providence for a bottle of red wine that scores 4.0 or higher on the Vivino Rating System is less than the population mean of $32.48.

Then, the null and alternative hypothesis are:

H_0: \mu=32.48\\\\H_a:\mu< 32.48

The significance level is 0.05.

The sample has a size n=65.

The sample mean is M=30.15.

As the standard deviation of the population is not known, we estimate it with the sample standard deviation, that has a value of s=12.

The estimated standard error of the mean is computed using the formula:

s_M=\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{n}}=\dfrac{12}{\sqrt{65}}=1.4884

Then, we can calculate the t-statistic as:

t=\dfrac{M-\mu}{s/\sqrt{n}}=\dfrac{30.15-32.48}{1.4884}=\dfrac{-2.33}{1.4884}=-1.565

The degrees of freedom for this sample size are:

df=n-1=65-1=64

This test is a left-tailed test, with 64 degrees of freedom and t=-1.565, so the P-value for this test is calculated as (using a t-table):

\text{P-value}=P(t

As the P-value (0.0612) is bigger than the significance level (0.05), the effect is not significant.

The null hypothesis failed to be rejected.

At a significance level of 0.05, there is not enough evidence to support the claim that the mean price in Providence for a bottle of red wine that scores 4.0 or higher on the Vivino Rating System is less than the population mean of $32.48.

<u>Critical value approach</u>

<u></u>

At a significance level of 0.05, for a left-tailed test, with 64 degrees of freedom, the critical value is t=-1.669.

As the test statistic is greater than the critical value, it falls in the acceptance region.

The null hypothesis failed to be rejected.
