Answer:
∠ WZX = 50°
XW is not an altitude.
Step-by-step explanation:
16. See the attached figure.
XW is the angle bisector of ∠ YXZ, hence, ∠ WXY = ∠ WXZ
Now, given that ∠ YXZ = 8x + 34 and ∠ WXY = 10x - 13
Hence, ∠ YXZ = 2 ∠ WXY
⇒ 8x + 34 = 2(10x - 13)
⇒ 8x + 34 = 20x - 26
⇒ 12x = 60
⇒ x = 5.
Hence, ∠ XZY = ∠ WZX = 10x = 50° (Answer)
Now, ∠ WXZ = ∠ WXY = 10x - 13 = 37°
Hence, from Δ WXZ,
∠ WZX + ∠ WXZ + ∠ XWZ = 180°
⇒ 50° + 37° + ∠ XWZ = 180°
⇒ ∠ XWZ = 93° ≠ 90°
Hence, XW is not an altitude. (Answer)
Answer:
21 / 143
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Number of Eastern conference reps = 8
Number of western conference rep = 7
Probability of selecting 3 from Eastern reps and 2 from western reps
Probability = required outcome / Total possible outcomes
Total possible outcomes:
selection to be made = 3+ 2 = 5
Total Number of players = 8 +7 = 15
Total possible outcomes
Using combination formula :
nCr = n! / (n-r)!r!
15C5 = 15! / 10!5! = (15 * 14 * 13 * 12 * 11) / (5*4'3*2*1) = 360360 / 120 = 3003
Total possible outcomes = 3003
Required outcome :
8C3 * 7C2
8C3 = 56 ; 7C2 = 21
8C3 * 7C2 = 56 * 21 = 1176
required outcome / Total possible outcomes
= 1176 / 3003
= 21 / 143
- Slope-Intercept Form: y = mx+b, with m = slope and b = y-intercept
So perpendicular lines have <u>slopes that are negative reciprocals</u> to each other, but firstly we need to find the slope of the original equation. The easiest method to find it is to convert this standard form into slope-intercept.
Firstly, subtract 3x on both sides of the equation: 
Next, divide both sides by -4 and your slope-intercept form of the original equation is 
Now looking at this equation, we see that the slope is 3/4. Now since our new line is perpendicular, this means that <em>its slope is -4/3.</em>
Now that we have the slope, plug that into the m variable and plug in (-4,-5) into the x and y coordinates to solve for the b variable as such:

<u>In short, your new equation is y = -4/3x - 10 1/3.</u>
Answer:
A. Increase by 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that a fitted multiple regression equation is

This is a multiple regression line with dependent variable y and independent variables x1, x2, x3 and x4
The coefficients of independent variables represent the slope.
In other words the coefficients represent the rate of change of y when xi is changed by 1 unit.
Given that x3 and x4 remain unchanged and x1 increases by 2 and x2 by 2 units
Since slope of x1 is 5, we find for one unit change in x1 we can have 5 units change in y
i.e. for 2 units change in x1, we expect 10 units change in Y
Similarly for 2 units change in x2, we expect -2(4) units change in Y
Put together we have
change in y
Since positive 2, there is an increase by 2
A. Increase by 2
