Which of the following lines is perpendicular to y=-2x+3?

Mathematics

Ivahew [28]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The given line has equation:

y=-2x + 3

Compare to the general slope-intercept form: y=mx+c

This implies that m=-2 is the slope of the given line.

The slope of all lines perpendicular to the given line is the negative reciprocal of -2.

This implies that the slope of any line perpendicular to y=-2x+3 is

\frac{1}{2}

Now look through the options and choose the equation that is of the form:

y =  \frac{1}{2} x + \boxed { whatever\:  \: constant }

Given: <br> PQ<br> ⊥<br> QR<br> , PR=20,<br> SR=11, QS=5<br> Find: The value of PS.
dlinn [17]

Answer:

The value of the side PS is 26 approx.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question we have two right triangles. Triangle PQR and Triangle PQS.

Where S is some point on the line segment QR.

Given:

PR = 20

SR = 11

QS = 5

We know that QR = QS + SR

QR = 11 + 5

QR = 16

Now triangle PQR has one unknown side PQ which in its base.

Finding PQ:

Using Pythagoras theorem for the right angled triangle PQR.

PR² = PQ² + QR²

PQ = √(PR² - QR²)

PQ = √(20²+16²)

PQ = √656

PQ = 4√41

Now for right angled triangle PQS, PS is unknown which is actually the hypotenuse of the right angled triangle.

Finding PS:

Using Pythagoras theorem, we have:

PS² = PQ² + QS²

PS² = 656 + 25

PS² = 681

PS = 26.09

PS = 26

Standard error (SE)
se=   \frac{s}{ \sqrt{n} }
Or

se =  \sqrt{ \frac{ {s}^{2} }{n} }

Therefore, SE of the mean = (8)/(2) =4

A rare mutation only occurs in 1 in every 2048 generations of fruit flies. We can assume that whether or not the mutation occurs
sergey [27]

Answer:

(A) 0.0244

(B) 1 (not 1.47 as is calculated) since probability values are between 0 and 1; 0 and 1 inclusive

Step-by-step explanation:

The rare mutation only occurs in 1 generation, out of every 2048 generations. This implies that the next occurrence will fall in or within the next 2048 generations (2 generations in 4096 generations, will have the rare mutation).

(A) The probability of occurrence of this mutation at least once (at most infinity) in 50 generations of fruit flies will surely be less than, as 50 is less than 2048.

The accurate probability is gotten when 50 is divided by 2048

50÷2048 = 0.0244

(B) The probability of seeing this mutation at least once (at most infinity) in 3000 generations would have been 1.47 but for 3 reasons;

- The full question already tells that the mutation will occur once in every 2048 generations and 3000 is greater than 2048, hence there will be a sure occurrence within 3000 generations.

- Question (b) asks you to calculate the probability of seeing this mutation at least once in 3000 generations so, the probability is 1 (representing full probability).

- In probability theory or statistics, all probability values fall within 0 and 1; with 0 representing no occurrence at all and 1 representing full occurrence.
