Find the value of k so that the line through the given points has the given slope.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Kay [80]3 years ago
7 0

The formula of a slope:

m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

We have the points (1, k) and (-1, -4) and the slope m = 3/2. Substitute:

\dfrac{-4-k}{-1-1}=\dfrac{3}{2}\\\\\dfrac{-4-k}{-2}=\dfrac{3}{2}\qquad\text{multiply both sides by (-2)}\\\\-4-k=-3\qquad\text{add 4 to both sides}\\\\-k=1\qquad\text{change the signs}\\\\\boxed{k=-1}

Vesna [10]

Answer:

15 people/mi

Step-by-step explanation:

The population density of a region in Alaska is 3,000 people/200 mi.

We need to find the equivalent to the population density of this Alaskan region.

x=\dfrac{3000\ \text{people}}{200\ \text{mi}}\\\\x=\dfrac{30\ \text{people}}{2\ \text{mi}}\\\\x=\dfrac{15\ \text{people}}{\text{mi}}

So, the correct option is (c) "15 people/mi"

The average score of all pro golfers for a particular course has a mean of 70 and a standard deviation of 3.0 (Think of these as
bija089 [108]

Answer:

0.477 is  the probability that the average score of the 36 golfers was between 70 and 71.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 70

Standard Deviation, σ = 3

Sample size, n = 36

Let the average score of all pro golfers follow a normal distribution.

Formula:

z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

P(score of the 36 golfers was between 70 and 71)

\text{Standard error of sampling} = \displaystyle\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} = \frac{3}{\sqrt{36}} = \frac{1}{2}

P(70 \leq x \leq 71) = P(\displaystyle\frac{70 - 70}{\frac{3}{\sqrt{36}}} \leq z \leq \displaystyle\frac{71-70}{\frac{3}{\sqrt{36}}}) = P(0 \leq z \leq 2)\\\\= P(z \leq 2) - P(z \leq 0)\\= 0.977 - 0.500 = 0.477= 47.7\%

P(70 \leq x \leq 71) = 47.7\%

0.477 is  the probability that the average score of the 36 golfers was between 70 and 71.

Find all of the solutions for the following equation. 2 sin q + 3 = sin q + 2
kow [346]

Answer:

q = 270 degrees + 360n  where n is an integer

Step-by-step explanation:

2 sin q + 3 = sin q + 2

Subtract sin q from each side

2 sin q - sin q + 3 = sin q + 2

sin q + 3 = 2

Subtract 3 from each side

sin q +3-3 = 2-3

sin q = -1

Take the inverse sin of each side

sin ^-1 (sin q) = sin^-1 (-1)

q = 270 degrees + 360n  where n is an integer
