What values of k will make the line containing points (k,3) and (-2,1) parallel to the line through (5, K) and (1,0)

Mathematics
1 answer:
rjkz [21]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

k = -4 or 2

Step-by-step explanation:

For the lines to be parallel, the lines would need to be the same slope. This means to find the slope of each we would take the difference of the rise over the run.

\frac{1-3}{-2-k}=\frac{-2}{-2-k}

and

\frac{0-k}{1-5}=\frac{-k}{-4}

To find K, set them equal.

\frac{-2}{-2-k} = \frac{-k}{-4}\\-k(-2-k) = -2*-4\\2k+k^2=8\\k^2+2k-8=0

Factor the quadratic and solve for K.

(k+4)(k-2)=0

k+4=0 so k=-4

k-2=0 so k=2

The sampling examples below use either the stratified or the cluster method of sampling. Select the examples that use the strati
Marysya12 [62]

A landlord wants to know the average income of his tenants. He selects three of his eight apartment complexes and collects income information from several randomly chosen tenants within the selected complexes.

A health agency needs to assess the performance of hospitals in a region but does not have the resources to evaluate each hospital. To reduce costs, the agency selects 5 of the 23 hospitals in the region and samples data related to performance from randomly chosen days and times.

Answer: Options D and E.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Cluster sampling is a sampling plan used when mutually homogeneous yet internally heterogeneous groupings are evident in a statistical population. It is often used in marketing research. In this sampling plan, the total population is divided into these groups and a simple random sample of the groups is selected.

Stratified sampling is a probability sampling technique wherein the researcher divides the entire population into different subgroups or strata, then selects the final subjects proportionally from the different strata.
