Step-by-step explanation:
Explanation:
First, we must solve the equation for y to determine the slope: y = 2x + 3/2
By looking at the coefficient in front of x, we know that the slope of this line has a value of 2. To fine the slope of any line perpendicular to this one, we take the negative reciprocal of it:
slope = m , perpendicular slope = – 1/m
slope = 2 , perpendicular slope = – 1/2
Answer:
13.92
Step-by-step explanation:
We have that the critical z-score associated with 85% to the left is 1.04, we know that by table.
So we have to:
m + z * (sd) = 16
where m is the mean, z is the critical z-scor and sd is the standard deviation, if we replace we are left with:
m + 1.04 * (2) = 16
m = 16 - 1.04 * (2)
m = 13.92
Therefore, the average weight if 85% of cucumbers weigh less than 16 ounces is 13.92
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The given equations are:
1st: -3x=42-16y
2nd: 14x=76-16y
Subtract the first equation from the second one:
14x--3x=76-42-16y--16y
14x+3x=34-16y+16y
17x=34

We plug in x-value into the second equation to get:
14(2)=76-16y
14x=76-32
28-76=-16y
-48=-16y
Divide both sides by -16
y=3
The 2nd one I think brainlest me I was first
