Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

g(x) = 1/2x - 5

g(x) = 8

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Substitute:                    8 = 1/2x - 5
  2. Isolate <em>x</em> term:               13 = 1/2x
  3. Isolate <em>x</em>:                       26 = x
  4. Rewrite:                         x = 26

The variance of a stock's returns can be calculated as the:
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

The correct option is b.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for standard deviation is

\sigma^2=\frac{\sum {(x-\overline{x})^2}}{n}

where, \overline{x} is mean of the data and n is number of observation.

The variance of a stock's returns can be calculated by the above formula.

Variance of stock's returns is the average value of squared deviations from the mean.

Therefore the correct option is b.

Find the equation of the line perpendicular to y = -2x + 6 that goes through (2, 10).
neonofarm [45]
If the line is perpendicular, then its slope is the reciprocal of the given line's slope. This new line's slope is 1/2. We plug it into slope-intercept form

y = 1/2x + b

Now plug in the given point of (2, 10) and solve for b. 

10 = 1/2(2) + b
10 = 1 + b
9 = b

So your equation is y = 1/2x + 9

In ΔOPQ, the measure of ∠Q=90°, OQ = 20, PO = 29, and QP = 21. What is the value of the sine of ∠P to the nearest hundredth?
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

  0.69

Step-by-step explanation:

The mnemonic SOH CAH TOA reminds you that the sine is the ratio ...

  Sin = Opposite/Hypotenuse

For angle P, the opposite side is OQ. The hypotenuse is the longest side, PO. So, the sine is ...

  sin(P) = OQ/PO = 20/29

  sin(P) ≈ 0.69
