Answer:

\frac{12}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the slope of the line containing points (5,4) and (-7,9).  To find the slope use the formula \frac{y_{2} -y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}.  Putting those values in, you have

\frac{9-4}{-7-5}

Simplify

\frac{5}{-12}

-\frac{5}{12}

Then, to find the slope of the line perpendicular to that, find the negative reciprocal.  

\frac{12}{5}

If a sample of pure sodium has a mass of 8.2 grams and sodium has an average atomic mass of 22.99 g/mol, how many sodium atoms a
Nonamiya [84]
8.2 grams = 1 mol
Na ________
22.99 grams

First multiply the value of 8.2 to 1. Then divide by the value of 22.99 to determine the number of moles of sodium present in the 8.2 gram sample.

Then use the following equation to solve for sodium atoms.

Number of moles of Na • Avogadro Number = Number of sodium atoms.

0.3566782 • (6.02 X 10^23). = 2.1472 X 10 ^ 23. Or 2.15 X 10 ^ 23.

The answer is the second option - 2.15 X 10 ^ 23.

Wewaii [24]

Answer:

Ryan is a more consistent performer

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is

HEL 1. Shown are the final scores for Norm Duke in the past eight bowling tournaments.

299, 281, 285, 269, 280, 269, 286, 287

Part A: What is the mean absolute deviation of Norm Duke’s scores?

A.

7.50

B.

7.00

C.

7.25

D.

6.75

Part B: Based on the mean absolute deviation from Part A, who has been the more consistent bowler if Ryan Shafer has a mean absolute deviation of 7?

Solution

First we will find the mean deviation of Duke is 7.5

The standard deviation of Ryan is 7.0. This means that the average variation in case of Duke is higher than that of average variation of Ryan.

Hence, Ryan has been more consistent performer
