Answer:
m = - 5/4
Step-by-step explanation:
If two lines are perpendicular, their slopes are negative reciprocals, which means that their product is -1
We can write the equation
4*x - 5*y + 13 = 0
as: 5*y = 4*x + 13 or
y = (4/5)*x + 13 (1)
Equation (1) is the equation of a straight line in its slope point form, 4/5 is the slope, according to this the slope of a perpendicular line is
-5/4
Step-by-step:
Use slope formula to find the slope. (y - y)/(x - x)
Make sure the x and y in front of the minus is a pair that goes together, as well as the x and y behind the minus sign. So
8 - -4 goes on top, that's 12
0 - -1 goes under, thats 1
12/1 is the slope which is just 12. Use either point to fill in the second x and the second y in the point-slope equation. m is the slope.
y - y = m(x - x)
y - 8 = 12(x - 0)
y - 8 = 12x
Answer: 4.8 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
6/55 = x/44
55x = 6(44)
55x = 264
x = 264/55 = 4.8 miles
A)If the order of the speakers is important, we have 20x19x18x17, or 116,280 different options.
b) If order is not important, then we have 20 choose 4, or 4845 different slates. ☺☺☺☺
Answer:
The probability that a randomly selected woman has red/green color blindness is 0.9914
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the proportion of women having red/green color blindness is 0.86%
Represent that with p
Convert proportion from percentage to decimal;
In probability; opposite probabilities add up to 1;
Let the probability that a woman selected have red/green color blindness be represented with q;
Subtract p from both sides
Substitute 0.0086 for p
<em>Hence, the probability that a randomly selected woman has red/green color blindness is 0.9914</em>
