Y=mx+b

Y1-Y2/X1-X2

14-10/5-3 = 4/2 = 2

Plug in (3,10):
(10)=2(3)+b

Solve:
10=6+b

B=4
M=2

each part of the box and whisker is 25% (meaning each quartile) There are 4 quartiles so this makes 100%

So, the first being 25% and this is where the below 15 falls.

So, 25%

What is the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the given line and has an x-intercept of -3?

Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

$y=-\frac{3}{2}x-\frac{9}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the equation of the perpendicular line is,

y = mx + b

where m = slope of the line

b = y-intercept

From the graph, slope of the line passing through (0, -1) and (3, 1),

m' = $\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

m' = $\frac{1+1}{3-0}$

m' = $\frac{2}{3}$

To get the slope (m) of this line we will use the property of perpendicular lines,

m × m' = (-1)

m × $\frac{2}{3}$ = -1

m = $-\frac{3}{2}$

Equation of the perpendicular line will be,

$y=-\frac{3}{2}x+b$

x-intercept of the line is (-3) therefore, point on the line is (-3, 0)

0 = $-\frac{3}{2}(-3)+b$

b = $-\frac{9}{2}=-4.5$

Equation of the line will be,

$y=-\frac{3}{2}x-\frac{9}{2}$

Marcos is mixing a solution in science class. He is mixing 3 ounces of food coloring with every 8 ounces of water. If he wants a

jonny [76]

Answer:

With the 24 ounces of water he would have 9 ounces of food coloring.

Step-by-step explanation:

For ever 8 ounces of water there is 3 ounces of food coloring so if there is 24 ounces of water that mean there is 3 times the original starting amount. So 8x3=24 so there is 24 ounces of the water. Since the8 got multiplied by 3 that means the 3 we haven't used yet will get multiplied by 3 as well so we can find the answer. So 3x3=9. That means we would have 9 ounces of food coloring with the 24 ounces of water.

Tao Bergolts bank granted him a single-payment loan of $4,400 at an interest rate of 12 percent. The term of the loan is 172 day

jolli1 [7]

Answer: $ 14736 (approx)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, Maturity value is the amount payable to an investor at the end of a holding period of debt instrument.

And, It is defined as, $V= P(1+r)^n$

Where, P is the principal amount,

r is the interest rate

And, n is the time period.

Here, P= $4,400 r= 12 % and n = 172/365

Thus, Maturity value for this loan,

$V = 4400(1+12)^{172/365}$

⇒V= 4400 × 3.34908932078 = 14735.9930114 ≈ 14736
