The equation of line perpendicular to 4y = x-8 passing through (3,-3) is:

$y = -4x+9$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation of line is:

$4y=x-8$

We have to convert the given line in slope-intercept form to find the slope of the line

So,

Dividing both sides by 4

$\frac{4y}{4} =\frac{x-8}{4}\\y = \frac{1}{4}x-\frac{8}{4}\\y = \frac{1}{4}x-2$

Let m1 be the slope of given line

Then

$m_1 = \frac{1}{4}\\$

Let m2 be the slope of line perpendicular to given line

As we know that produt of slopes of two perpendicular lines is -1

$m_1.m_2 = -1\\\frac{1}{4} . m_2 = -1\\m_2 = -1*4\\m_2 = -4$

The slope intercept form of line is given by:

$y = m_2x+b$

Putting the value of slope

$y = -4x+b$

to find the value of b, putting (3,-3) in equation

$-3 = (-4)(3) + b\\-3 = -12 +b\\b = -3+12\\b = 9$

Putting the value of b in the equation

$y = -4x+9$

Hence,

The equation of line perpendicular to 4y = x-8 passing through (3,-3) is:

$y = -4x+9$

The function s(t) represents the position of an object at time t moving along a line. Suppose s(2)=150 and s(5)=237. Find the a

trapecia [35]

Answer:

29 is answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the function s(t) represents the position of an object at time t moving along a line. Suppose s(2)=150 and s(5)=237.

To find average velocity of the object over the interval of time [1,3]

We know that derivative of s is velocity and antiderivative of velocity is position vector .

Since moving along a line equation of s is

use two point formula

$\frac{s-150}{237-150} =\frac{t-2}{5-2} \\s=29t-58+150\\s=29t+92$ gives the position at time t.

Average velocity in interval (1,3)

= $\frac{1}{3-1} (s(3)-s(1))\\=\frac{1}{2} [87+58-29-58]\\=29$

Suppose medical records indicate that

Kay [80]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the random variable representing the the length of newborn babies (in inches). Since it is normally distributed and the population mean and population standard deviation are known, we would apply the formula,

z = (x - µ)/σ

Where

x = sample mean

µ = population mean

σ = standard deviation

From the information given,

µ = 20 inches

σ = 2.6 inches

the probability that a given infant is between 14.8 and 25.2 inches long is expressed as

P(14.8 ≤ x ≤ 25.2)

For x = 14.8,

z = (14.8 - 20)/2.6 = - 2

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.023

For x = 25.2

z = (25.2 - 20)/2.6 = 2

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.98

Therefore,

P(14.8 ≤ x ≤ 25.2) = 0.98 - 0.23 = 0.75
