Answer:

y=-x+3

Step-by-step explanation:

The general slope-intercept equation of a line is y=mx+b where m is the slope and b represents the y intercept. y and x are simply a point the line passes through. In this case, y=x-5, meaning m=1 and b=-5.

In order to find the perpendicular slope, we should take the current slope's <u>negative reciprocal</u>. We have:

-\frac{1}{1} =\\-1

Therefore, our perpendicular slope is -1. We now have equation:

y=-x+b

We can plug in the known values of the point (-1,4) to solve for b.

4=(-1)*(-1)+b\\4=1+b\\b=3

If we now put what we found together, we have equation

y=-x+3

A new physical therapy is being tested in an experimental setting to see if
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

Control Group.

Step-by-step explanation:

A control group, in research, is a group that is not experimented by the researchers in an experiment. A control group is the opposite of an experimental group, on which the independent variable is performed. In other words, an independent variable is held on 'control' in control group.

<u>In the given scenario, the experiment is being performed to test a new physical therapy. To do so, the researchers divided the group in three groups, in which, one group did not receive any treatment; the treatment is held on 'control' in this group.</u>

So, according to the definition provided, the group that did not receive the treatment will be called a control group, thus the correct answer.

Write an equation of the line through the given points<br><br><br>(0, 4), (3, 3)​
andre [41]

Hello! :)

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope=\frac{Y_2-Y_1}{X_2-X_1}=\frac{RISE}{RUN}

\frac{3-4}{3-0}=\frac{-1}{3}=-\frac{1}{3}

<u><em>Therefore, the slope is -1/3.</em></u>

<u><em>-1/3 is the final answer.</em></u>

Hope this helps!

Have a nice day! :)

2( 10 - a^2 ) + 7a If ( a = 4 )Evaluate each expression
Lostsunrise [7]

Solution:

Given:

2(10-a^2)+7a

when a = 4, substitute for a in the expression;

\begin{gathered} 2(10-a^2)+7a=2(10-4^2)+7(4) \\ =2(10-16)+28 \\ =2(-6)+28 \\ =-12+28 \\ =16 \end{gathered}

Therefore, if (a = 4), then

2(10-a^2)+7a=16

Hence, the answer is 16.
