Parallel lines, slope is the same so
1) 3x+8y = 12
8y = -3x + 12
y = -3/8(x) + 3/2, slope = -3/8
slope of a line that is parallel = -3/8
2)5x+4y = 5
4y = -5x + 5
y = -5/4(x) + 5/4; slope is -5/4
slope of a line that is parallel = -5/4
--------------------
perpendicular, slope is opposite and reciprocal
3)
3x+8y = 11
8y = -3x + 11
y = -3/8(x) + 11/8. slope = -3/8
slope of perpendicular line = 8/3
4)
x = -7, slope is undefined
so slope of perpendicular line is 0
5)
3x+2y = 12
2y = -3x + 12
y = -3/2(x) + 6 ; slope = -3/2
5x - 6y = 8
6y = 4x - 8
y = 2/3(x) - 4/3; slope is 2/3
slope is opposite and reciprocal, so the equals are perpendicular
6)
3x + y = 5
y = -3x + 5; slope = -3
6x + 2y = -15
2y = -6x - 15
y = -3x - 7.5; slope = -3
both have slope = -3 so equations are parallel
Answer:
c. 0.1151
Step-by-step explanation:
d) the probability that, on average, fish are larger than 86 centimeters in length.The area under part of a normal probability curve is directly proportional to probability and the value is calculated as
z = (x₁−x) /σ
where z = propability of normal curve
x₁ = variate mean = 86cm
x = mean of 80cm
σ = standard deviation = 5cm
applying the formula,
z= (86-80)/5
z = 6/5 =1.2
Using a table of partial areas beneath the standardized normal curve (see Table of normal curve, a z-value of 1.2 corresponds to an area of 0.3849 between the mean value. but, because the standard curve has 0.5, then will minus 0.3849 from 0.5= 0.5 - 0.3849 = 0.1151
Thus the probability of a fish are larger than 86 centimeters in length is 0.1151
The answer should be .202. If the question is looking for rounding, it might want .2 instead, but only if it tells you to round. Just divide 101 by 500 in a calculator and that's your answer.
Hopefully this helps! Let me know if you have any more questions.
