Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have the same gradient.

A line with a slope of zero is a horizontal line. Although two lines that have a slope of zero will result in two parallel lines, not all parallel lines are horizontal lines. Since the question is asking for which statement <u>must</u> be true, option A is incorrect.

If the slopes of two lines are negative reciprocals, they are perpendicular to each other. This is because the product of the gradients of 2 perpendicular lines is -1. Let the gradient of the first line be A and the other be B.

AB= -1

A =   - \frac{ 1}{B}

B =  -  \frac{1}{A}

Thus, option B is incorrect too.

Undefined slopes gives vertical lines. Like option A, if two lines have an undefined slope, they will be parallel to each other. However since parallel lines are nit necessarily vertical lines, option C is also incorrect.

The owner of a local nightclub has recently surveyed a random sample of n = 250 customers of the club. She would now like to det
Maru [420]

Answer:

0.077994

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the owner of a local nightclub has recently surveyed a random sample of n = 250 customers of the club.

H_0: Mean = 30\\H_a: Mean >30

(Right tailed test)

Sample size = n=250

Sample mean = 30.45

Mean difference =30.45-30=0.45\\

Sample std dev s = 5

Sample std error = \frac{5}{\sqrt{n} } =\frac{5}{\sqrt{250} } \\=0.3163

Test statistic = Mean diff/std error = =\frac{0.45}{0.3163} =1.423

Since population std deviation is not know we use t test

p value = 0.077994

In each box is a step in the process of solving a max/min problem like the one in Question 8. Number these steps in order (1-8)
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

The steps are numbered below

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve a maximum/minimum problem, the steps are as follows.

1. Make a drawing.

2. Assign variables to quantities that change.

3. Identify and write down a formula for the quantity that is being optimized.

4. Identify the endpoints, that is, the domain of the function being optimized.

5. Identify the constraint equation.

6. Use the constraint equation to write a new formula for the quantity being optimized that is a function of one variable.

7. Find the derivative and then the critical points of the function being optimized.

8. Evaluate the y-values of the critical points and endpoints by plugging them into the function being optimized. The largest y- value is the global maximum, and the smallest y-value is the global minimum.

Mariana [72]

Answer:

x = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Raising both sides to the fifth power, we get:

27(x - 2) = 3⁵

x - 2 = 3⁵ / 27

x - 2 = 3⁵ / 3³

x - 2 = 3⁽⁵⁻³⁾ = 3² = 9

x = 11
