Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

Sol: the ratio formula is

x-x1/x2-x = ratio and y-y1/ y2-y= ratio

x-(-7)/0-x=2/1 and y-17/0-y=2/1

x+7=2(-x) and y-17 = -2y

x+2x=-7 and y+2y =17

3x=-7 and 3y = 17

x=-7/3 and y= 17/3

coordinates of point p that partition the segment in ratio is (-7/3, 17/3)

The midpoint formula is:

M= (x1+x2/2, y1+y2/2)

= (-7+0/2, 17+0/2)

= (-7/2, 17/2) are the midpoint of AB.

The operating costs for each machine for one day have an unknown distribution with mean 1610 and standard deviation 136 dollars.

BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

20.27

Step-by-step explanation:

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the sample means with size n of at least 30 can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

Using the Central Limit Theorem for Means, what is the standard deviation for the sample mean distribution?

This is s when $\sigma = 136, n = 45$ . So

$s = \frac{136}{\sqrt{45}} = 20.27$

So the correct answer is:

20.27

How do i find the slope of a line that passes through a given point and is parallel or perpendicular to another given point?

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

There's no such thing as parallel or perpendicular "to a point". A problem like that
will always want the new line to be parallel or perpendicular to another line.

-- If the new line is parallel to the given line, then they have the same slope.

-- If the new line is perpendicular to the the given line, then the slope of the
new line is [ 1 / slope of the given line ].

In either case, you now have the slope of the new line and a point on it.
From there, you should have no trouble finding its equation.
