Y=-1/2x+11 that passes through (4,-8)

Mathematics

kompoz [17]3 years ago

A line in point-slope form has the equation


y = mx + b


where m=slope (increase in y for unit increase in x), and

b=y-intercept (value of y where line cuts y-axis)


The original line is

y=(-1/2)x + 11

so

slope = m = -1/2


Any line perpendicular to a line with slope m has a slope of m1=-1/m

So the slope m1 of the required line

m1 = -1 / (-1/2) = +2


and the required line therefore has an equation of

y=2x+b


Knowing that the line passes through P1=(x1, y1)=(4,-8), we can find b using the point slope form of a line with slope m : (y-y1) = m(x-x1)

where m=+2 as found above.


Substituting values, m=+2, x1=4, y1= -8

y-(-8) = +2(x--4)

simplify

y+8 = 2x-8

=>

y=2x-16 (in point slope form)

To factor 8x^2 + bx + 3, a student correctly rewrites the trinomial 8x^2 + px + qx + 3. What is the value of pq?
sergeinik [125]
Try this option:
1. if 8*x²+b*x+3=8*x²+p*x+q*x+3, then ⇒ b=p+q.
2. p*q = max_value (b²/2), if p=q=0.5*b, and p*q→-oo, if p>0 and q<0 or p>0 q<0.
3. example:
given 8x²+10x+3, the student rewrites it as a) 8x²+5x+5x+3 (5*5=25-max value); b) 8x²+0.01x+9.99x+3 (9.99*0.01=0.0999→0); c) 8x²-20x+30x+3 (p*q=-600).

answer: (-oo;0.5b²)

If the coordinates for C' are (4.5, 4.5), which rule best represents the dilation that was applied to rectangle ABCD to create r
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

The dilation of rectangle ABCD to create rectangle A'B'C'D' would change the size of the rectangle

The dilation rule is: (x,y) -> k(x,y)

<h3>How to determine the rule of dilation?</h3>

The coordinates of C' is given as:

C' = (4.5, 4.5)

The coordinate of point C is not given.

So, I will apply a general rule

The general rule of dilation is:

(x,y) -> k(x,y)

Where k represents the scale factor.

Assume that k = 3, the the rule would be
(x,y) -> 3(x,y)

What is the approximate area of the circle shown below?
Cerrena [4.2K]
C because the formula to find the are of a circle is A=(pi) * radius^2. To find the radius from diameter, just divide by two. So 60/2= 30 so now you can just plug in and 30 * 30 is 900 and 900 * pi, or 3.1415926535, is about 2827

Twenty five heat lamps are connected in a greenhouse so, that when one lamp fails, another takes over immediately (only one lamp
olga55 [171]

Answer:

P = 0.006

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

n = 25 Lamps

each with mean lifetime of 50 hours and standard deviation (SD) of 4 hours

Find probability that the lamp will be burning at end of 1300 hours period.

As we are not given that exact lamp, it means we have to find the probability where any of the lamp burning at the end of 1300 hours, So we have

Suppose i represents lamps

P (∑i from 1 to 25 (X_i > 1300)) = 1300

= P(X^{'}> \frac{1300}{25})                  where X^{'} represents mean time of a single lamp

= P (Z> \frac{52-50}{\frac{1}{\sqrt{25}}})                Z is the standard normal distribution which can be found by using the formula

Z = Mean Time (X^{'}) - Life time of each Lamp (50 hours)/ (SD/\sqrt{n})

Z = (52-50)/(4/\sqrt{25}) = 2.5

Now, P(Z>2.5) = 0.006 using the standard normal distribution table

Probability that a lamp will be burning at the end of 1300 hours period is 0.006
