Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Here's the game plan. In order to find a point on the x-axis that makes AC = BC, we need to find the midpoint of AB and the slope of AB. From there, we can find the equation of the line that is perpendicular to AB so we can then fit a 0 in for y and solve for x. This final coordinate will be the answer you're looking for. First and foremost, the midpoint of AB:

and

Now for the slope of AB:

and

 So if the slope of AB is 1/3, then the slope of a line perpendicular to that line is -3. What we are finding now is the equation of the line perpendicular to AB and going through (0, 3):

and filling in:

y - 3 = -3(x - 0) and

y - 3 = -3x + 0 and

y - 3 = -3x so

y = -3x + 3. Filling in a 0 for y will give us the coordinate we want for the x-intercept (the point where this line goes through the x-axis):

0 = -3x + 3 and

-3 = -3x so

x = 1

The coordinate on the x-axis such that AC = BC is (1, 0)

Ainat [17]

Answer:

One of the assumptions we sometimes need to make when performing statistical inferences is that the response variable in the population has a Normal distribution. Is it possible to check that this assumption is satisfied?

Statement A is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

When performing statistical inferences, one of the assumptions often made is that the response variable in the population has a normal distribution.

Since we do not have the whole population, the above assumption cannot put to a check.

However, the t distribution is robust to modest departures from normality, thus it can be used, if there are no major outliers in the plot of the data.

Therefore, statement A is correct.

HURRY PLEASE I’ll mark you as brainliest
eduard

Answer:

-74

Step-by-step explanation:

First you use term 0, which is 6 because term 1 is 4. The slope is -2x so after 40 terms it would be -74.
