Hi there! :)

\large\boxed{C.)\text{ } y = -1/2x + 4}

Given equation:

y = 2x + 3

A perpendicular line would have a slope of the negative reciprocal, therefore:

2x --> -1/2x

Use the equation y = mx + b to plug in the given point values along with the slope to solve for the final equation:

3 = -1/2(2) + b

3 = -1 + b

3 + 1 = b

b = 4

Therefore, the final equation is:

y = -1/2x + 4

The correct answer choice is C, y = -1/2x + 4.

In the diagram shown of circle A, segments UV and UT are congruent. If
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

 35°

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume that points S, T, U, V all lie on the circle.

Inscribed angle TUV intercepts long arc VST and short arc VUT. The long arc has measure 220°, so the measure of the short arc is 360° -220° = 140°.

Since chords UV and UT are the same length, point U bisects arc VUT. That means the measure of arc VU is 140°/2 = 70°.

Inscribed angle VSU intercepts arc VU, so has half the measure of the arc:

 ∠VSU = 70°/2

 ∠VSU = 35°

Two studies were done on the same set of data, where study I was a one-sided test and study II was a two-sided test. The p-value
mixer [17]

Answer:

0.060

Step-by-step explanation:

In a two tailed test the probability of occurrence is the total area under the critical range of values on both the sides of the curve (negative side and positive side)

Thus, the probability values for a two tailed test as compared to a one tailed test is given by the under given relation -

p-value = P(Z< -\frac{\alpha }{2} )+P(Z >\frac{\alpha}{2})\

Here P\frac{\alpha}{2} = 0.030

Substituting the given value in above equation, we get -

probability values for a two tailed test

=0.030 + 0.030\\= 0.060

Tina is 4 times older than Hanna. The sum of their ages is 40. How old is Hanna?
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

<u>Hanna is 8 years old.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Hanna = x

Tina = 4x

Sum = 40.

Hanna =?

Hanna + Tina = 40

4x + x = 40

5x = 40

x = 40/5

x = <u>8</u>.

Hanna is <u>8 years</u> old.
