Answer:Find the distance between the parallel lines m and n whose equations are y = x + 4 and y = x - 6, respectively.

There are several ways to do this...here's one

Let (0, 4) be a point on the first line

Then.......a line with a negative reciprocal slope going through this point will have the equation :

y = -x + 4........so......we can find the intersection of this line with y = x - 6....set both equations equal

-x + 4  = x - 6   add x, 6 to both sides

10 = 2x     divide both sides by 2

5  = x

So...using -x + 4, the y value  at intersection  = -1.......

So...we just need to find the distance from  (0,4)  to ( 5, -1)  =

√[ (5)^2 + (4 + 1)^2 ] =  5√2  ≈  7.07 units

Here's a pic....AB is the distance  with A = (0,4)  and B = (5, -1)

If the probability that your DVD player breaks down before the extended warranty expires is 0.034, what is the probability that
schepotkina [342]

Answer:

0.966

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Probability of DVD player breaking down before the warranty expires = 0.034

To find:

The probability that the player will not break down before the warranty expires = ?

Solution:

Here, The two events are:

1. The DVD player breaks down before the warranty gets expired.

2. The DVD player breaks down after the warranty gets expired

In other words, the 2nd event can be stated as:

The DVD does not break down before the warranty gets expired.

The two events here, have nothing in common i.e. they are mutually exclusive events.

So, Sum of their probabilities will be equal to 1.

\bold{P(E_1)+P(E_2)=1}\\\Rightarrow 0.034+P(E_2)=1\\\Rightarrow P(E_2)=1-0.034\\\Rightarrow P(E_2)=\bold{0.966}

If you deposit $6000 into an account paying 8% annual interest compounded monthly, how much money will be in the account after 7
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

$10278

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

P= $6000

R= 8%

T= 7 years

The compound interest formula is

A=P(1+r)^t

substitute

A=6000(1+0.08)^7

A=6000(1.08)^7

A=6000*1.713

A=$10278
