Answer:

y = 3x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Points on given line: (-3, 2), (0, 1)

m1 = slope of given line; m = slope of perpendicular

Slope of given line = m1 = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) = (2 - 1)/(-3 - 0) = 1/(-3) = -1/3

The slopes of perpendicular lines have a product of -1.

m1 * m = -1

-1/3 * m = -1

m = 3

Slope of perpendicular: m = 3

Point on perpendicular: (3, 4)

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 4 = 3(x - 3)

y - 4 = 3x - 9

y = 3x - 5

Answer: y = 3x - 5

Jane must get at least three of the four problems on the exam correct to get an A. She has been able to do 80% of the problems o
NISA [10]

Answer:

a) There is n 81.92% probability that she gets an A.

b) If she gets the first problem correct, there is an 89.6% probability that she gets an A.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each question, there are only two possible outcomes. Either the answer is correct, or it is not. This means that we can solve this problem using binomial distribution probability concepts.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.\pi^{x}.(1-\pi)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinatios of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And \pi is the probability of X happening.

For this problem, we have that:

The probability she gets any problem correct is 0.8, so \pi = 0.8.

(a) What is the probability she gets an A?

There are four problems, so n = 4

Jane must get at least three of the four problems on the exam correct to get an A.

So, we need to find P(X \geq 3)

P(X \geq 3) = P(X = 3) + P(X = 4)

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.\pi^{x}.(1-\pi)^{n-x}

P(X = 3) = C_{4,3}.(0.80)^{3}.(0.2)^{1} = 0.4096

P(X = 4) = C_{4,4}.(0.80)^{4}.(0.2)^{0} = 0.4096

P(X \geq 3) = P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) = 2*0.4096 = 0.8192

There is n 81.92% probability that she gets an A.

(b) If she gets the first problem correct, what is the probability she gets an A?

Now, there are only 3 problems left, so n = 3

To get an A, she must get at least 2 of them right, since one(the first one) she has already got it correct.

So, we need to find P(X \geq 2)

P(X \geq 3) = P(X = 2) + P(X = 3)

P(X = 2) = C_{3,2}.(0.80)^{2}.(0.2)^{1} = 0.384

P(X = 4) = C_{3,3}.(0.80)^{3}.(0.2)^{0} = 0.512

P(X \geq 3) = P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) = 0.384 + 0.512 = 0.896

If she gets the first problem correct, there is an 89.6% probability that she gets an A.

Solve the system by substitution. <br> -5x+3y=2 <br> Y=2x
Volgvan

Answer:

2 is the required answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Solution:</u>

<u>Given</u><u>:</u>

-5x+3y=2..............(i)

Putting the value of y=2x in the equation (i); we get:

i.e -5x+3×2x=2

or, -5x+6x=2

or, x=2

i.e. x=2

y=2x=2×2=4

The angle of elevation to the top of a water tower from point A on the ground is 19.9°. From point B, 50.0 feet closer to the to
zepelin [54]

Answer:

Answer in terms of a trigonometric function :

h = \frac{20tan(19.9)}{0.4-tan(19.9)}

Answer in figures

h = 190.5 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the sketch attached below to better understand the problem.

Let x be the distance between point B and the base of the water tower.

tan (19.9)=\frac{h}{50+x} ---------------equation 1\\

tan (21.8)=\frac{h}{x}----------------equation 2

From equation 2,

x =\frac{h}{tan21.8}=\frac{h}{0.4}

substituting the value of x into equation 1, we get

tan (19.9)=\frac{h}{50+(\frac{h}{0.4} )}

tan 19.9=h\times \frac{0.4}{20+h}

cross multiplying,

20\times tan(19.9) +htan(19.9)=0.4h

20tan(19.9)= h(0.4-tan(19.9))

h= \frac{20tan (19.9)}{0.4-tan (19.9)}

The height of the tower is h= \frac{20tan (19.9)}{0.4-tan (19.9)} in terms of the trig function "Tan"

The equation can simply be evaluated to get the answer in figures since the angles are given in the question
