Answer:

The equation of a line that is parallel to line a is y=½x + 2, or what is the same -½x+y-2=0

Step-by-step explanation:

A line is a polynomial function of the first degree that has the following form:

y = m * x + b

where m is the slope of the line and b is the intercept with the Y axis.  The slope is the inclination of the line with respect to the abscissa axis.

In this case you know that the slope of line a is ½.  

Parallel lines are two or more lines in a plane that never intersect. Two lines are parallel if they have the same slope and different y-intercepts.

You have:

  • y+½x=2       →       y= -½x +2
  • -2x+y+2=0       →       y=2x -2
  • 2x-2=y      
  • -½x+y-2=0       →       y=½x + 2

The line that has the same slope as line a is the last one, so <u><em>the equation of a line that is parallel to line a is y=½x + 2, or what is the same -½x+y-2=0</em></u>

Help please!! Thank you!! :)
Naddik [55]

Answer:

  A.  m^2+7m+10=0

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a problem in pattern matching, and in substituting a variable for a pattern.

  (x^2+3)^2 +7x^2 +21 = -10 . . . . . . given

  (x^2 +3)^2 +7(x^2 +3) = -10 . . . . . factor the last two terms

  m^2 +7m = -10 . . . . . . . . . . . . subsitute m for x^2 +3

  m^2 +7m +10 = 0 . . . . . . . . add 10 to both sides; matches A

How would you describe the shape of the normal distribution?
RUDIKE [14]

The shape of the normal distribution is bell shape and it is also symmetrical from the left and right sides about the origins (mean).

What is a normal distribution?

A normal distribution is a function on some random variables, which represent the set of all those random variables in a symmetrical bell shape about the mean value.

It shows that the probability of occurrence of some data which is distributed over a function is more at or around the mean.

It is also known as probability distribution curve.

The normal distribution has two parameters:

  • Mean
  • Standard deviation

What is the shape of the normal distribution?

The normal distribution curve is at it's peak at the mean value. This shows that the probability of occurrence of the data or value is more concentrated or distributed about the mean. It is also symmetric about the mean. As we more further from the mean, we see that the normal distribution curve gradually decreases showing that the probability of occurrence of the data or the values decreases. The shape that this curve forms is like a bell-shaped. So the shape of normal distribution is bell shape.

Hence, the shape of the normal distribution is bell shape and it is also symmetrical from the left and right sides about the origins (mean).

What is the slope line perpendicular to the equation 4x+3y=9
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

m=3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

first, let's put the line 4x+3y=9 from standard form (ax+by=c) into slope-intercept form (y=mx+b)

we have the equation 4x+3y=9

subtract 4x from both sides

3y=-4x+9

divide by 3

y=-4/3x+3

perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative and reciprocal. If the slopes are multiplied together, the result is -1

so to find the slope of the line perpendicular to the line y=-4/3x+3, we can take the slope of y=-4/3x+3 (-4/3) multiply it by a variable (this is our unknown value), and have that set to -1

(m is the slope value)

-4/3m=-1

multiply by -3/4

m=3/4

therefore the slope of the perpendicular line is 3/4

hope this helps!! :)
