Which of these equations is for a line perpendicular to y-3=5(x-2)?

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

y-3=5(x-2)  (rearrange this to be in slope- intercept from) (add 3 to both sides)

y = 5(x-2) + 3   (distribute parentheses)

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

y = 5x -10 + 3

y = 5x - 7

recall that for a line with gradient m, the gradient of the perpendicular line will be - (1/m)

hence in our case, our gradient of the original line is 5, hence the gradient of the perpendicular line is -1/5

From the choices, the only one that is consistent with this is C

i.e choice C:

5y + x = 25

5y = -x + 25

y = -(1/5) x + 5   ===> gradient of -1/5

The marketing department of a sports supply store wants to estimate the percentage of adults in the town who belong to a gym.
velikii [3]
A) If you only sample people in a sports supply store, your sample will be biased.  People in a sports supply store are more likely to be people that belong to a gym.
B) While it does not have necessarily the same amount of bias as sampling people in the sports supply store, people that go to a park are generally more likely to be people that exercise or have a gym membership.
C) Taking a random sample of people in town is a good way to get a non-biased sample.  They are not necessarily predisposed to answer your question one way or another.
D) For the same reason as choice A, this is a biased sample.

C is the best choice.

What is the area? Bit confused on this one.
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

x² + 8x + 12

Step-by-step explanation:

see

the length of the entire rectangle = x + 6

breadth of the entire rectangle = x + 2

area of a rectangle = length × breadth

= (x + 6)(x + 2)

= x² + 8x + 12

which is the required polynomial in standard form

Mercury is the closest planet to the sun at a distance of 36 million miles. The closest star to the sun is Proxima Centauri, whi
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

Proxima Centauri is 2.478 x 10¹³ miles from Sun.

Explanation:

 Distance of Proxima Centauri to sun = 4.24 light years

 1 light year = 5.9 x 10¹² miles.

 Distance of Proxima Centauri to sun in miles = Distance in light years x 5.9 x 10¹² miles

 So, Distance of Proxima Centauri to sun in miles = 4.2 x 5.9 x 10¹² miles

                                                                               = 2.478 x 10¹³ miles

  So Proxima Centauri is 2.478 x 10¹³ miles from Sun.
