Answer:

0.1 atoms

Step-by-step explanation:

Typically, there is 0.1 atoms in each cubic centimeter of interstellar wind, and 10 ions in each cubic centimeter of solar wind (versus surface air which contains 3 x 10^19 molecules per cc). This means there is a great deal of dead space between the very tiny particles and collisions are rare.

Describe and correct the error the student made when writing the equation of the line that passes through (-8,5)

pshichka [43]

Option D (The student should have used as the slope of the perpendicular line.) is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to identify the error that the student made in finding equation of the line that passes through (-8,5) and is perpendicular to y = 4x + 2

The slope of the required line would me -1/m because both lines are perpendicular.

So, slope of new line will be: -1/4

because the equation of slope-intercept form is: $y=mx+b$ where m is the slope

Now, for finding equation the student used point slope form i.e $y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

where y_1 and x_1 are the points and m is the slope.

Putting values:

x_1=-8, y_1=5 and m=-1/4

$y-5=-\frac{1}{4}(x-(-8))\\y-5=-\frac{1}{4}(x+8)\\y-5=-\frac{1x}{4}-2\\y=-\frac{1x}{4}-2+5\\y=-\frac{1x}{4}+3$

This is the correct solution.

The student made error by using the wrong slope he used 2 instead of -1/4

in the step $y-5 = 2(x-(-8))$

So, Option D (The student should have used as the slope of the perpendicular line.) is correct.

The cost of renting an apartment can be modeled by the function C(m)=900m+1400, where C(m) is the cost in dollars for m months o

Ahat [919]

Answer:

On the context of the problem, the slope means the total paid for every month that the apartment is rented, 900 per month in this case, while the y-intercept means the initial cost for renting the apartment, 1400 upfront in this case.

Step-by-step explanation:

This function is linear, which means that it increases at a steady rate and has the following form:

$y(x) = a*x + b$
