Answer: Claire is 18 and her mother is 40
Step-by-step explanation:
Perpendicular lines have slopes that multiply to get -1
y=mx+b is the slope intercept equation
m=slope
so get into y=mx+b form
-x+2y=4
solve for y
add x both sides
2y=x+4
divide by 2 both sides
y=(1/2)x+2
the slope is 1/2
perppendicular line slope multiplies to -1
1/2 times what=-1
times 2/1 both sides
what=-2/1=-2
y=-2x+b
find b
we are given a point is (-2,1)
when x=-2, y=1
1=-2(-2)+b
1=4+b
minus 3 both sides
-3=b
so the equation is
y=-2x-3
your teacher might want it in standard form (ax+by=c) so
add 2x both sides
2x+y=-3 is an equation
so y=-2x-3 is correct (slope intercept form)
2x+y=-3 is also correct (standard form)
Answer: in 95% of races, his finishing time will be between 62 and 64 seconds.
Step-by-step explanation:
The empirical rule states that for a normal distribution, nearly all of the data will fall within three standard deviations of the mean . The empirical rule is further illustrated below
68% of data falls within the first standard deviation from the mean.
95% fall within two standard deviations.
99.7% fall within three standard deviations.
From the information given, the mean is 63 seconds and the standard deviation is 5 seconds.
2 standard deviations = 2 × 0.5 = 1
63 - 1 = 62 seconds
63 + 1 = 64 seconds
Therefore, in 95% of races, his finishing time will be between 62 and 64 seconds.
Answer:
the first option
Step-by-step explanation:
solution:
distance: d=1/4 lc (because is a quarter of a circle)
length of the circumference: lc=2 pi r
pi: constant=3.14
radius of the circle: r=80 feet
replacing pi and r in the formula of lc:
lc=2 pi r
lc=2 (3.14) (80 feet)
lc=502.4 feet
replacing lc in the formula of d:
d=1/4 lc
d=1/4 (502.4 feet)
d=502.4/4 feet
d=125.6 feet
Answer:
below
Step-by-step explanation:
1) slope = rise / run
2 coordinates are (-4, 0), (0, 2).
2 - 0 = 2
0 -- 4 = 4
2 / 4 = 1/2 so the slope is 0.5 or ½
2) it crosses the y axis at the average of the origin and 4.
4 + 0 = 4 / 2 = 2 so y intercept is 2.
3) in y= mx + b form
f(x) = ½x + 2, or, f(x) = 0.5x + 2
