Answer:
The perpendicular line would be y = -2x - 4
Step-by-step explanation:
First we must solve the original equation for y.
x - 2y = 7
-2y = -x + 7
y = 1/2x - 7/2
In order to find the equation of this line, we first have to note that perpendicular lines have opposite and reciprocal slopes. Therefore, since the original line has a slope of 1/2, we know the new line will have a slope of -2. Now we can use that information along with the given point in point-slope form to find the equation.
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 2 = -2(x + 3)
y - 2 = -2x - 6
y = -2x - 4
Answer:
x = 9 ± √14
Step-by-step explanation:
x² − 18x + 67 = 0
Move the constant to the other side:
x² − 18x = -67
Take half of -18, square it, and add to both sides.
(-18/2)² = (-9)² = 81
x² − 18x + 81 = -67 + 81
x² − 18x + 81 = 14
Factor the perfect square:
(x − 9)² = 14
Solve for x:
x − 9 = ±√14
x = 9 ± √14
Answer:
0.525 = 52.5%
Step-by-step explanation:
Moment generating function ( Mx(t) ) = ( 4 / 4-t)^3
Reimbursement by Insurer = 70%
<u>Determine the expected reimbursement by insurer for policyholder</u>
d/dx (Mx(t) ) = d/dt ( 4 / 4-t)^3 = d/dt (1 - t/4 )^-3
= 3/4 ( 1 - t/4 )^-4 = 3/4
as t → 0
Given that the insurer reimburses 70% = 0.7
expected reimbursement = 0.7 * 3/4 = 0.7 * 0.75 = 0.525
I believe the answer might be:
x = 28/19
