Answer:
y = (7/2)x -20
Step-by-step explanation:
The given line is in slope-intercept form, so you can read its slope from the equation.
y = mx + b . . . . . m is the slope; b is the y-intercept
y = -(2/7)x + 9 . . . . . . has slope -2/7
The perpendicular line will have a slope that is the negative reciprocal of this, so will be ...
m = -1/(-2/7) = 7/2
We can use this and the given point to write the equation in point-slope form.
y = m(x -h) +k . . . . . . line with slope m through point (h, k)
We have m = 7/2, (h, k) = (4, -6) so the equation is ...
y = (7/2)(x -4) -6
y = (7/2)x -20
Answer:
(1, 5)
Step-by-step explanation:
When the center is the origin, the dilation factor multiplies each coordinate:
(2, 10) ⇒ (1/2)(2, 10) = (1, 5)
Given the function:
f(x) = x³ + 3x² - 4x + 5
The graph of the function is (taken f:
According to the graph above, the maximum and minimum are 18.13 and 3.87, respectively
Answer:
The minimum sample size needed is 125.
Step-by-step explanation:
In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of 
, and a confidence level of 
, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.
In which
z is the zscore that has a pvalue of 
.
The margin of error is:
For this problem, we have that:
99% confidence level
So 
, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 
, so 
.
What minimum sample size would be necessary in order ensure a margin of error of 10 percentage points (or less) if they use the prior estimate that 25 percent of the pick-axes are in need of repair?
This minimum sample size is n.
n is found when 
So
Rounding up
The minimum sample size needed is 125.
Answer:
-14
Step-by-step explanation:
You've got a(1)=20
a(1) means a(n) when n=1
the sequence is telling you to take the previous value of a(n), which is a(n-1) and subtract 17
then:
a(2) = a(1)-17 = 20 - 17 = 3
a(3) = a(2) - 17 = 3-17 = -14
