Answer:

c. y + 1 = -⅕(x - 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

To write the equation in point-slope form, we need to know the slope (m) and coordinates of a point the line passes through.

The equation would be in the form of y - b = m(x - a).

(a, b) = (2, -1)

Since the line is perpendicular to y = 5x + 3, the slope will be the negative reciprocal of 5 which is -⅕

m = -⅕.

Substitute a = 2, b = -1, and m = -⅕ into y - b = m(x - a).

Thus:

y - (-1) = -⅕(x - 2)

y + 1 = -⅕(x - 2)

How does the volume of a cone change if its radius and height are both tripled

Evgesh-ka [11]

The volume formula could be re-written to help understand this, as V = π*3r^2*3h. If you solve for this, you can conclude that the volume would be multiplied by 27.

The height, in inches, of a randomly chosen American woman is a normal random variable with mean μ = 64 and variance 2 = 7.84. (

Schach [20]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the height in inches, of a randomly chosen American woman is a normal random variable with mean μ = 64 and variance 2 = 7.84.

X is N(64, 2.8)

Or Z = $\frac{x-64}{2.8}$

a) the probability that the height of a randomly chosen woman is between 59.8 and 68.2 inches.

$=P(59.8$

b) $P(X\geq 59)\\= P(X\geq -1.78)\\ \\=0.9625$

c) For 4 women to be height 260 inches is equivalent to

4x will be normal with mean (64*4) and std dev (2.8*4)

4x is N(266, 11.2)

$P(4x>260)= \\P(Z\geq -0.53571)\\=0.7054$

d) Z is N(0,1)

E(Z19) = $P(Z>19)\\= 0.000$

since normal distribution is maximum only between 3 std deviations form the mean on either side.
