Answer:

The equation is;

y = -3/4x + 12

Step-by-step explanation:

The general form for the equation of a straight line is;

y = mx + b

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

With respect to this question;

4/3 is the slope and 1 is the intercept

If two lines are perpendicular, then the product of their slopes is -1

Mathematically;

4/3 * m2 = -1

m2 = -3/4

So to find the equation of this second line, we use the point slope form

This is;

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y-4 = -3/4(x + 8)

y- 4 = -3/4x + 8

y = -3/4x + 12

hoa [83]

Answer:

z=-2.33

And if we solve for a we got

a=48000 -2.33*5500=35185

And for this case the answer would be 35185 the lowest 1% for the salary

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X the random variable that represent the salary, and for this case we can assume that the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(48000,5500)  

Where \mu=48000 and \sigma=5500

And we want to find a value a, such that we satisfy this condition:

P(X>a)=0.99   (a)

P(X   (b)

We can use the z score again in order to find the value a.  

As we can see on the figure attached the z value that satisfy the condition with 0.01 of the area on the left and 0.99 of the area on the right it's z=-2.33. On this case P(Z<-2.33)=0.01 and P(z>-2.33)=0.99

If we use condition (b) from previous we have this:

P(X  

P(z

But we know which value of z satisfy the previous equation so then we can do this:

z=-2.33

And if we solve for a we got

a=48000 -2.33*5500=35185

And for this case the answer would be 35185 the lowest 1% for the salary
