For perpendicular lines, m2 = -1/m1.

For line -x + 5y = 14 => 5y = x + 14 => y = 1/5 x + 14/5 => slope = 1/5

m2 = -1 / (1/5) = -5

Required equation is y - (-2) = -5(x - (-5))
y + 2 = -5(x + 5)
5x + y = -25 - 2
5x + y = -27

What are the solutions of the inequality (x-3)(x+5)<=0
GarryVolchara [31]

Assuming that the inequality you were going for was a ≤, set both polynomials less than or equal to 0.

x - 3 ≤ 0

x + 5 ≤ 0

For the first equation add 3 to both sides of the inequality. For the second, subtract 5 from both sides.

x ≤ 3

x ≤ - 5

These would be your solutions I guess, however, if you want to expand upon that, your actual answer is (- ∞, - 5] because if you were to plot these two inequalities on a number line, that is where the overlap would occur.

slega [8]

If she goes 75 mph for 2 hours, that's 150 miles altogether. 45 mph for 1 hour is 45 miles, so 150 + 45 is 195 miles.

zheka24 [161]

Answer:

The probability is 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The time a person is given corresponds to a uniform distribution with values between 0 and 100. The mean of this distribution is 0+100/2 = 50 and the variance is (100-0)²/12 = 833.3.

When we take 100 players we are taking 100 independent samples from this same random variable. The mean sample, lets call it X, has equal mean but the variance is equal to the variance divided by the length of the sample, hence it is 833.3/100 = 8.333.

As a consecuence of the Central Limit Theorem, the mean sample (taken from independant identically distributed random variables) has distribution Normal with parameters μ = 50, σ= 8.333. We take the standarization of X, calling it W, whose distribution is Normal Standard, in other words

W = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma} = \frac{X - 50}{8.333} \simeq N(0,1)

The values of the cummulative distribution of the Standard Normal distribution, lets denote it \phi , are tabulated and they can be found in the attached file, We want to know when X is above 50, we can solve that by using the standarization

P(X > 50) = P(\frac{X-50}{8.33} > \frac{50-50}{8.33}) = P(W > 0) = \phi(0) = 1/2

Gnom [1K]

Answer:

406.67 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

250=28.95(4)+0.33m  

250=115.8+.33m

134.2=.33m

134.2/.33=.33/.33m

m=406.666666667

rounded: m=406.67
