Answer:

No they are not parallel.  

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to figure out the slopes of each set of points. For  (-5,3) and (-6,-1) the slope is 4 and for  (3,-2) and (2,-7) the slope is 5. You can only have parallel lines if the slope is same and the y- ints are different. Here the slopes aren't same.

Sorry If im wrong. Hope this helps!

Given that u =< 2,12 >, and z =< -7,5 >

Using the dot product:

For any vector x, we have

||x|| = √(x • x)

This means that

||w|| = √(w • w)

… = √((u + z) • (u + z))

… = √((u • u) + (u • z) + (z • u) + (z • z))

… = √(||u||² + 2 (u • z) + ||z||²)

We have

u = ⟨2, 12⟩   ⇒   ||u|| = √(2² + 12²) = 2√37

z = ⟨-7, 5⟩   ⇒   ||z|| = √((-7)² + 5²) = √74

u • z = ⟨2, 12⟩ • ⟨-7, 5⟩ = -14 + 60 = 46

and so

||w|| = √((2√37)² + 2•46 + (√74)²)

… = √(4•37 + 2•46 + 74)

… = √314 ≈ 17.720

Alternatively, without mentioning the dot product,

w = u + z = ⟨2, 12⟩ + ⟨-7, 5⟩ = ⟨-5, 17⟩

and so

||w|| = √((-5)² + 17²) = √314 ≈ 17.720

A random sample of n people selected from a large population will be asked whether they have read a novel in the past year. Let
kozerog [31]

Answer:

b. A binomial variable with 25 independent trials

Step-by-step explanation:

The conducted experiment is binomial experiment because outcome can be divided into success or failure. The success would be the people who read novel in the past year and also responses are independent of each other. We have to find the number of trials n in the given problem.

we are given that variance of R=6 and p=probability of success=0.4.

We know that variance of binomial distribution is

Variance=npq

where q=1-p=1-0.4=0.6.

By putting the values in variance formula, we can get the value of n.

6=n*0.4*0.6

6=0.24*n

n=6/0.24

n=25

Hence, random variable R is a binomial variable with 25 independent trials.

The answer would be C. When you calculate the mean, it includes every number for a certain period of time into things and averages it out. The median does not average out all the numbers.
