A perpendicular bisector forms two right angles and splits the line in two equal parts.
The altitude does create two right angles, but doesn't have to create two equal parts.
Answer:
(-8,4)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: 2x-3y=-28 and x+6y=16
solve for a variable and then substitute back into other equation
x + 6y = 16
x = 16 - 6y; now use this in the other equation
2x - 3y = -28; substitute into x
2(16 - 6y) - 3y = -28; distribute 2
32 - 12y - 3y = -28; combine y's
32 - 15y = -28; isolate 15y
32 + 28 = 15y; add the numbers
60 = 15y; divide by 15
y = 4
Now use this to plug into other equation
x + 6y = 16; y=4
x + 6(4) = 16;
x + 24 = 16; subtract 24 from both sides
x = -8
Answer: The answer is C

Answer:
The probability is 0.503
Step-by-step explanation:
If the ghost appearances occur in the house according to a Poisson process with mean m, the time between appearances follows a exponential distribution with mean 1/m. so, the probability that the next ghost appearance happens before x hours is equal to:

Then, replacing m by 1.4 ghosts per hour we get:

Additionally, The exponential distribution have a memoryless property, so if it is now 1:00 p.m. and we want the probability that ghost appear before 1:30 p.m., we need to find the difference in hours from 1:00 p.m and 1:30 p.m. no matter that the last ghost appearance was at 12:35 p.m.
Therefore, there are 0.5 hours between 1:00 p.m. and 1:30 p.m, so the probability that the 7th ghost will appear before 1:30 p.m is calculated as:
