Answer:

A. y - 7 = -4(x + 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Insert the coordinates into the formula with their CORRECT signs. Remember, in the Point-Slope Formula, <em>y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)</em><em>,</em><em> </em>all the negative symbols give the OPPOSITE term of what they really are. In addition, I recall that perpendicular lines have OPPOSITE <em>MULTIPLICATIVE INVERSE </em>[<em>RECIPROCAL</em>] <em>rate of changes</em> [<em>slopes</em>], so -4 really should be replaced with ¼, but if your assignment says otherwise, then this is the answer.

the distribution of heights of adult American men is approximately normal with mean 68 in and a standard deviation of 2.5 in wha

melamori03 [73]

Let x be a random variable representing the heights of adult American men. Since it is normally distributed and the population mean and standard deviation are known, we would apply the formula,

z = (x - mean)/Standard deviation

From the information given,

mean = 68

standard deviation = 2.5

The probability that the height of a selected adult is between 63 and 73 is expressed as

$P(68\leq x\leq73)$

For x = 63,

z = (63 - 68)/2.5 = -2

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.02275

For x = 73,

z = (73 - 68)/2.5 = 2

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.97725

Therefore,

$P(68\text{ }\leq x\leq73)\text{ = 0.97725 - 0.0}2275\text{ = 0}.9545$

Thus, the percentage of men are between 63 and 73 is

0.9545 * 100 = 95.45%

Rounding up to the nearest percentage, the answer is 95%

<h3><u>Answer</u> :- </h3>

c) 0.01

<h3><u>Solution</u> :-</h3>

To Write percentage in decimal or fraction we divide it by 100

therefore,

$\begin{gathered}\\\implies\quad \sf 2\% = \frac{2}{100} \\\end{gathered}$
