Perpendicular = opposite sign and reciprocal slope
Slope 2 turns into -1/2
Y = -1/2x + b
Plug in the point
-5 = -1/2(2) + b, b = -4
Solution: y = -1/2x - 4
Answer:
The minimum weight for a passenger who outweighs at least 90% of the other passengers is 203.16 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean
and standard deviation
, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
In this problem, we have that:

What is the minimum weight for a passenger who outweighs at least 90% of the other passengers?
90th percentile
The 90th percentile is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.9. So it is X when Z = 1.28. So




The minimum weight for a passenger who outweighs at least 90% of the other passengers is 203.16 pounds
A rational number is a number that can be written in the form:

Where p and q are coprimes. We are asked for finite sets, we can rule out options 3 and 4. In the set in option 2 the first element is:

This number cannot be written a ratio. We can rule out option 2.
All the elements in the set from option 1 can be written in the form p/q.Thus, the answer is the first option.
The answer would be 850 milliliters.
The slope is - 3/10
