Complete Question:

The smallest hummingbird is the Bee hummingbird. It has a mass of about 1 1/2 grams. The mass of a larger type of hummingbird is about 5 times the mass of the Bee hummingbird.

What is the mass of the larger humming bird?

Answer:

7 1/2 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

The mass of Bee humming bird is given in the question as = 1 1/2 grams

Mass of the larger humming bird = 5 times the mass of Bee humming bird

The mass of the larger humming bird is calculated as:

5 × 1 1/2 grams = 5 × 3/2 grams

= 15/2 grams = 7 1/2 grams

Therefore, the mass of the larger humming bird is 7 1/2 grams

Write the equation of a line perpendicular to 3x + 4y = 9 that passes through (8, - 4)

Arisa [49]

keeping in mind that perpendicular lines have <u>negative reciprocal</u> slopes, let's find the slope of 3x + 4y = 9, by simply putting it in slope-intercept form.

$\bf 3x+4y=9\implies 4y=-3x+9\implies y=-\cfrac{3x+9}{4}\implies y=\stackrel{slope}{-\cfrac{3}{4}}x+\cfrac{9}{4} \\\\[-0.35em] \rule{34em}{0.25pt}\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{perpendicular lines have \underline{negative reciprocal} slopes}} {\stackrel{slope}{-\cfrac{3}{4}}\qquad \qquad \qquad \stackrel{reciprocal}{-\cfrac{4}{3}}\qquad \stackrel{negative~reciprocal}{+\cfrac{4}{3}}\implies \cfrac{4}{3}}$

so we're really looking for the equation of a line whose slope is 4/3 and runs through 8, -4.

$\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{8}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-4})~\hspace{10em} slope = m\implies \cfrac{4}{3} \\\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{point-slope form}}{y- y_1= m(x- x_1)}\implies y-(-4)=\cfrac{4}{3}(x-8) \implies y+4=\cfrac{4}{3}x-\cfrac{32}{3} \\\\\\ y=\cfrac{4}{3}x-\cfrac{32}{3}-4\implies y=\cfrac{4}{3}x-\cfrac{44}{3}$

An electrical shop reduces display goods by 20%. A display TV is sold for £200. What is the usual price of the same TV?

Fynjy0 [20]

200 is 80%
200 / 80 = 2.50 (1%)
2.50 * 100 = £250

Hope this helps.

A football coach gives half his players a protein bar to eat before each game; the other players do not receive the protein bar.

timofeeve [1]

To make the sure the results did not happen by chance, the coach can ensure that the protein bars are the only difference between the two groups. For example, he can make sure that both groups are drinking the same amounts of water and getting in the same amount of practice; that way, he will be able to determine that one group is performing better due to the protein bars only. Also, the coach can repeat this experiment multiple times to make sure that the results weren't a random, one-time thing.
