Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is really super super simple as long as you know the rules for finding a perpedicular slope from a given line. The perpendicular slope of a line is the opposite reciprocal of the given slope. Our given slope is 3/5, therefore, the perpendicular slope is -5/3. There's only one line with that exact slope, so the choice is the last one. (BTW, check the coordinate you gave. It should be

(15, -5), not (15, 5)!)

A rectangular table is fivetimes as long as it is wide. if the area is 80ftsquared,find the length and the width of the table.

SOVA2 [1]

A = L * W
A = 80
L = 5W

80 = W(5W)
80 = 5W^2
80/5 = W^2
16 = W^2
sqrt 16 = W
4 = W <=== width is 4 ft

L = 5W
L = 5(4)
L = 20 <=== length is 20 ft

Answer:

The conclusion is that the researcher was correct

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The sample size is $n = 13$

The sample mean is $\= x = 9.63$

The standard deviation is $s = 0.585$

The significance level is $\alpha = 0.05$

The Null Hypothesis is $H_o : \mu = 0$

The Alternative Hypothesis is $H_a = \mu < 10$

The test statistic is mathematically represented as

$t = \frac{\= x - \mu }{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$

Substituting values

$t = \frac{9.63 - 10 }{\frac{0.585}{\sqrt{13} } }$

$t = - 2.280$

Now the critical value for $\alpha$ is

$t_{\alpha } = 1.645$

This obtained from the critical value table

So comparing the critical value of alpha and the test value we see that the test value is less than the critical value so the Null Hypothesis is rejected

The conclusion is that the researcher was correct

Use the given information to find the unknown value:y varies directly as the square of z. When x = 2, then y= 20. Find y when 2

Vladimir79 [104]

Answer

y = 45 when x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

$\begin{gathered} \text{Given that y varies directly as the square of x} \\ \text{This implies that there is a positive relationship betwe}en\text{ y and the square of z} \\ \text{Mathematically, this can be expressed as} \\ y\text{ }\propto x^2 \\ To\text{ turn this expression into an equation, we n}eed\text{ to introduce a proportionality constant k} \\ y=kx^2 \\ \text{ According to the question, y = 20 and x = 2} \\ \text{From the above informaion we can find our k} \\ y=kx^2 \\ 20\text{ = k }\cdot2^2 \\ 20\text{ = k }\cdot\text{ 4} \\ \text{Divide both sides by 4} \\ \frac{20}{4}\text{ = }\frac{k\cdot\text{ 4}}{4} \\ k\text{ = 5} \\ \text{ Find y when }x\text{ = 3} \\ y=kx^2 \\ y\text{ = 5 }\cdot(3)^2 \\ y\text{ = 5 }\cdot\text{ 9} \\ y\text{ = 45} \end{gathered}$
