Answer:
slope = - 
Step-by-step explanation:
Parallel lines have equal slopes thus the slope of a parallel line will be equal to the slope of PQ
To calculate slope m use the slope formula
m = 
with (x₁, y₁ ) = P(- 2, 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = Q(6, - 2)
m = 
= 
= -
Answer:
Standard deviation is a number used to tell how measurements for a group are spread out from the average (mean), or expected value. A low standard deviation means that most of the numbers are close to the average. A high standard deviation means that the numbers are more spread out.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
- <u><em>A. 6,000 miligrams</em></u>
Explanation:
A <em>balance scale</em> is balanced when the weights on both sides are equal. Then, since the image shows that both sides are equal, the weight of the <em>6-gram weight</em>, placed by Henry on one side of the balance scale is equal to the weight of the <em>ballet slipper </em>placed on the other side.
- Weight of the balance slipper = weight of the 6-gram weight
- Weight of the balance slipper = 6 grams
<u>Conversion of units: </u>
- 6 grams × 1,000miligrams/1gram = 6,000 miligrams
- Weight of the balance slipper = 6,000 miligrams
That is the option A.
You have to make a cos graph that starts its minimum and of -2, has an amplitude of 10, a period of 10 and a maximum of 18.
I decided to use a cos graph since cos graphs start at their minimum or maximum unlike a sine graph that starts halfway between the minimum and maximum. You also know the amplitude has to be 10 since 18+2=20 and 20/2=10. We were also told that the water wheel completels a rotation every 10 minutes which means the period is 10 minutes.
lets start of with a regular cos(x) graph. This starts on its maximum instead of minimum so we have to multiply it by -1 to get -cos(x) which does start on its minimum.
-cos(x) has an amplitude of 1 instead of 10, to fix that we multiply it by 10 to get -10cos(x) which has an amplitude of 10.
-10cos(x) has a period of 2π instead of 10, to fix this we multiply the x by 2π/10 to get -10cos((π/5)x) which now has a period of 10.
-10cos((π/5)x) has a minimum of -10 and maximum of 10 instead of a minimum of -2 and maximum of 18, to fix this we add 8 to -10cos((π/5)x) to get -10cos((π/5)x)+8 which does have a minimum of -2 and maximum of 18.
Therefore the answer is y=-10cos((π/5)x)+8. x being time in minutes and and y being the height in feet.
I hope this helps. Let me know if anything is unclear.
