Answer:

line1:y=2x+3

Gradient1=2

Let line2 be the line passes through (-4,1)and perpendicular to line1.

Because line2 and line1 are perpendicular, (gradient of line2) (gradient of line1) =-1

Gradient of line2=-1/2

Equation of line2:y-y1 =m(x-x1)

:y-1 =(-1/2)[x-(-4)]

:(y-1)(-2)=(x+4)

:-2y+2 =x+4

:-2y+2-x-4=0

:-x-2y-2 =0

:x+2y+2 =0

*notes:gradient=m

Simplify the expression below:

kifflom [539]

Answer:

C. -7x^2 - 28

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly simplify the bracket before doing anything;

4x(3x - 7) = 12x^2 - 28x

then go back to the question and substitute the expression(12x^2 - 28x) on the bracket and then work out the question;

12x^2 - 28x -19x^2...then group the values with the same exponent of x,

(12x^2 - 19x^2) - 28x

; -7x^2 - 28x

Enter the answer to the nearest tenth. Another home business has an average income of $1.200.00 per month with a standard deviat

Nonamiya [84]

Answer: -1.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Another home business has an average income of $1.200.00 per month with a standard deviation of $100.00.

i.e. $\mu=\$1200.0$

$\sigma=\$100.00$

Let x represents the monthly income.

Since . $z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

For x= 1030 , we have

$z=\dfrac{1030-1200}{100}=-1.7$

Hence, the required z-score = -1.7

Find the new area 20ft and 10 ft. Perimeter 48cm2 p=?

Scrat [10]

Answer:

I really don't get what you're asking but in finding the new area 20 feet and 10 feet I found the area and the perimeter 14 cm2. I have found both perimeter and area so if you wanted an answer I guess it is in one of my answers.

What is the formula for a confidence interval?

ikadub [295]

Answer:

a) The formula is given by mean $\pm$ the margin of error. Where the margin of error is the product between the critical value from the normal standard distribution at the confidence level selected and the standard deviation for the sample mean.

b) $\bar X \pm z_{\alpha/2}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

If the distribution for X is normal or if the sample size is large enough we know that the distribution for the sample mean $\bar X$ is given by:

$\bar X \sim N(\mu, \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})$

Part a

The formula is given by mean $\pm$ the margin of error. Where the margin of error is the product between the critical value from the normal standard distribution at the confidence level selected and the standard deviation for the sample mean.

Part b

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

$\bar X \pm z_{\alpha/2}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$
