Answer:

C. j + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

2(2j + 3) - 3j

multiply each term in the parentheses by 2

2 x 2j + 2 x 3

calculate the product

4j + 6 -3j

collect like terms by subtracting their coefficients

(4 - 3)j

then subtract the numbers

when the term has a coefficient of 1, it doesn't have to be written

then plug in the other number and that's your answer

j + 6

Do all perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes?

inna [77]

Not necessarily, the more correct definition is opposite reciprocal slopes.

The example used is how horizontal and vertical lines are parallel. Horizontal lines have a slope of 0, also written as 0/1. However, vertical lines have an undefined slope, which isn't necessarily negative. It has a slope of 1/0, which is undefined. In this case, the reciprocal isn't negative.

In all other cases (1 and -1, 2 and -1/2, etc.) yes, the perpendicular pairs are negative and reciprocal.

Answer:

The mean of the sampling distribution of p is 0.75 and the standard deviation is 0.0306.

Step-by-step explanation:

Central Limit Theorem:

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean $\mu = p$ and standard deviation $s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}$
