What do we know about those two lines?
They are perpendicular, meaning they have the same slope.
We know the slope of both is not zero (neither is vertical).
Therefore either
1) Both slopes are positive and therefore the product is positive
2) Both slopes are negative and therefore the product is positive (minus by a minus is a plus)
For the y intercepts, we know that the line P passes through the origin.
Therefore its Y intercept is zero.
[draw it if this is not obvious and ask where does it cross the y axis]
Therefore the Y intercept of line K and line P is zero.
[anything multiplied by a zero is a zero]
So we know that the product of slopes is positive, and we know that the product of Y intercepts is zero.
So the product of slopes must be greater.
Answer A
1-2. The best estimate for the population mean would be sample mean of 60 gallons. Since we know that the sample mean is the best point of estimate. Since sample size n=16 is less than 25, we use the t distribution. Assume population from normal distribution.
3. Given a=0.1, the t (0.05, df = n – 1 = 15)=1.75
4. xbar ± t*s/vn = 60 ± 1.75*20/4 = ( 51.25, 68.75)
5. Since the interval include 63, it is reasonable.
Answer:
The y-intercept of the line would be (C) 8
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of the line with the equation y = -3x - 5 is -3. When figuring out a slope perpendicular to another line you would use the negative reciprocal of the slope which would lead to the slope of the line to be 1/3.
We know it passes through the point (-3,7), substituting x and y, we would then get our new equation, 
.
Solve the equation by multiplying -3 with 1/3 and the product would be -1. Add negative one on both sides and you would get 8 = b.
To find the y-intercept, simply set the value of x equal to 0, and solve for y, or f(x).
f(x) = 0^2 - 3(0) - 40
f(x) = -40
<h3>The y-intercept is -40.</h3>
Because this is a 2nd degree polynomial, we cannot find the x-intercepts in one step, and must instead use one of a few different methods.
In this case, we're going to use the quadratic formula:
Plug in the values.
3 +/- √(-3^2 + 160) / 2
3 +/- √169 / 2
3 +/- 13 / 2
(3 + 13) / 2 = 16 / 2 = 8
(3 - 13) = -10 / 2 = -5
<h3>The x intercepts are 8, and -5.</h3>
Answer:
The x-intercept is 2
Step-by-step explanation:
So what you would do is you would distribute the 2 to x and 3 to get the equation y+2=2x+6. Then you would subtract 2 from both sides and get y=2x+4. And because your m is your x-intercept you get the answer: 2.
