Answer:

-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

A = (3, 4) ; B = (7, 6)

In triangle ABCD, AB and BC are Perpendicular lines :

Slope AB = Rise / Run = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

y2 = 6 ; y1 = 4 ; x2 = 7 ; x1 = 3

Slope AB = (6 - 4) / (7 - 3) = 2 / 4 = 1 / 2

To obtain the slope of BC:

RECALL:

product of the slope of 2 Perpendicular lines = - 1

Slope AB * Slope BC = - 1

1 / 2 * slope BC = - 1

Slope BC = - 1 ÷ 1/2

Slope BC = - 1 * 2/1

Slope BC = - 2

HENCE, slope of BC = - 2

Answer:

sqrt(2) =x

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use trig functions

sin theta = opp/ hyp

sin 45 = x/2

2 sin 45 =x

2 ( sqrt(2)/2) =x

sqrt(2) =x

Answer:

The correct answer is " $0.300993e^{-0.300993x}$ ".

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the question,

⇒ $P(x>4)=0.3$

We know that,

⇒ $P(X > x) = e^{(-\lambda\times x)}$

⇒ $e^{(-\lambda\times 4)} = 0.3$

∵ $\lambda = 0.300993$

Now,

⇒ $f(x) = \lambda e^{-\lambda x}$

By putting the value, we get

$=0.300993e^{-0.300993x}$
