Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a perpendicular line is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the original line. Let line x represent the original line and let line y represent the line that is perpendicular to line x

A conditional statement is an if - then statement. It is connected by a hypothesis statement and a conclusion statement. The hypothesis statement is "if the slope of line x is 2/3 and the slope of line y is -3/2 which is its negative reciprocal

The conclusion statement is " then, line x is perpendicular to line y

So the combined statement is

if the slope of line x is 2/3 and the slope of line y is -3/2 which is its negative reciprocal, then line x is perpendicular to line y

Suppose that people's heights (in centimeters) are normally distributed with a mean of 170 and a standard deviation of 5. We fin

Anni [7]

We have
mean=mu=170
standard deviation=sigma=5

can now calculate the Zmin and Zmax using Z=(X-mean)/standard deviation
Zmin=(165-170)/5=-1
Zmax=(175-170)/5=+1
From normal probability tables,
P(z<Zmin)=P(z<-1)=0.15866
P(z<Zmax)=P(z<+1)=0.84134
P(165<x<175)=P(Zmin<z<Zmax)=0.84134-0.15866= 0.68269

1. You have two boxes of colored pens. The first box contains a red pen, a blue pen, and a green pen. The second box contains a

My name is Ann [436]

You dont get duplicates in the set so although there are 2 red pens it only appears once in the set.

So the correct answer is D

A certain type of bacteria doubles in population every hour. Their growth can be modeled by an exponential equation. Initially,

Nastasia [14]

<span> A: y=2x 15 (or whatever variables you choose to represent the colony growth and time)

B: y=2(3.5) 15;
22 colonies

C: substitute 584 with y into the original equation, so:
584=2x 15
569=2x
284.5=x; therefore, after 284.5 hours</span> Hope this helps! :D

Write the equation: a number increased by 4 is 10

Verizon [17]

Answer:

x + 4 = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

a number: x

a number increased by 4: x + 4

a number increased by 4 is 10: x + 4 = 10

Since 4 + x and x + 4 are the same, you are correct.
