What is -1.2 times 1 1/5 divided by 3/10
djyliett [7]

I think it would be easier to covert the fractions to decimals here

-1.2 * 1 1/5 / 3/10

= -1.2 * 1.2 / 0.3

= -1.44 / 0.3

= - 4.8 answer

Pls answer <br> take ur time
bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

y = 3/4x

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the slope of the line

We have point (0,0) and point (4,3)

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

    = (3-0)/(4-0)

     =3/4

The y intercept is 0 since it crosses the y axis at 0

The slope intercept form of the line is

y = mx+b

y = 3/4x +0

y = 3/4x

Is perpendicular to ? Explain.
olga2289 [7]
Two lines are perpendicular if and only if the product of their slopes is - 1.

So, you just need to find the slope of each line and find out the product of their slopes.

I will do one example for you.

L1: y = 3x + 5

L2: y = - 3x + 14

L3: y = -x/3 + 14

The slope of a line is the coefficient of the x.

So the slopes are:

L1: slope 3
L2: slope -3
L3: slope -1/3

So now multiply the slopes of each pair of lines:

L1 and L2: 3 * (-3) = - 9 => No, they are not perpendicular

L2 and L3: (-3) * (-1/3) = 1 => No, they are not perpendicular

L1 and L3: (3) *  (-1/3) = -1 => Yes, they are penpendicular.

Use the following regression results to answer the remaining questions. Y measures average hourly earnings AHE in U.S. dollars f
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

Check the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Y = 11.5 + 4.5*X1 -2.5*X2 +0.7*X3+1.6*X4 -2.4*X5 -2.8*X6

FOR JANE

X1 =1 , X2 =1 , X3 =5 , X4 =0 ,X5=0, X6=1

SO,

Y =11.5+(4.5*1)-(2.5*1)+(0.7*5)+0+0-(2.8*1)

= 14.2

..........................

FOR Sophie

X1 =1 , X2 =1 , X3 =10 , X4 =1 ,X5=0, X6=0

so,

Y =11.5+(4.5*1)-(2.5*1)+(0.7*10)+ (1.6*1)+0+0

= 22.1
