Y = -1/5x + 2

A line perpendicular to another line has an opposite reciprocal slope. What opposite means is that you flip the sign (from - to + or from + to -) and reciprocal means that you flip the numerator and denominator (so if line A is perpendicular to line B and line As slope is -3, line Bs slope would be 1/3).

First find the slope of 5x - y = -3
Add y to both sides
5x = y - 3
Add 3 to both sides
y = 5x + 3

So the slope of the line is 5. That means the slope of of the perpendicular line is -1/5.

Plug the slope of the perpendicular line and the point (5, 1) into point slope form to solve the equation

y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 1 = -1/5(x - 5)
y - 1 = -1/5x + 1
y = -1/5x + 2

The tree diagram below shows all of the possible outcomes for flipping three coins.
creativ13 [48]

The probability that two of the coins will be tails is 1/2

It is 1/2 because "at least two tails" means that two tails and the rest of the number of tails, which is 3. In total the three coins have 6 sides. The chance of having two tails and one is three out of 6, simplified is 1/2 ;)

What is the interquartile range of the data displayed in this box-and-whisker plot? box-and-whisker plot ranging from 34 to 58 w
maxonik [38]

Answer: The interquartile range= 12


Step-by-step explanation:

From the given the lower quartile Q_1= 42

the middle quartile Q_2= 49

The upper quartile Q_3= 54

We know that the  interquartile range is given by:=-

Interquartile range= upper quartile- lower quartile or Q_3-Q_1

⇒\text{Interquartile range (IQ)}=54-42=12

Hence, the interquartile range of the data displayed in this box-and-whisker plot is 12.
