Mathematics

Answer:

For parallel:

gradient is 1/5

y = mx + c

consider (5, -2):

- 2 = ( \frac{1}{5}  \times 5) + c \\  - 2 = 1 + c \\ c =  - 3

{ \boxed{ \bf{equation : y =  \frac{1}{5}x - 3 }}}

For perpendicular:

gradient, m1:

m _{1} \times m_{2} =  - 1 \\ m _{1} \times  \frac{1}{5}  =  - 1 \\  \\ m _{1} =  - 5

gradient = -5

y = mx + c \\  - 2 = (5 \times -  5) + c \\  - 2 =  - 25 + c \\ c =  23

{ \boxed{ \bf{equation :y =  - 5x + 23 }}}

Answer:

Parallel: y=\displaystyle \frac{1}{5}x-3

Perpendicular: y=-5x+23

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

<u>What we must know:</u>

  • Slope intercept form: y=mx+b where <em>m</em> is the slope and <em>b</em> is the y-intercept (the value of y when the line crosses the y-axis)
  • Parallel lines always have the same slope
  • Perpendicular lines always have slopes that are negative reciprocals (ex. 2 and -1/2, -6/7 and 7/6)

<u>Finding the Parallel Line</u>

y=\displaystyle \frac{1}{5} x-3

Given this equation, we can identify that its slope (<em>m</em>) is \displaystyle \frac{1}{5}. Because parallel lines always have the same slope, the slope of the line we're currently solving for would be \displaystyle \frac{1}{5} as well. Plug this into y=mx+b:

y=\displaystyle \frac{1}{5}x+b

Now, to find the y-intercept, plug in the given point (5,-2) and solve for <em>b</em>:

-2=\displaystyle \frac{1}{5}(5)+b\\\\-2=1+b\\-2-1=b\\-3=b

Therefore, the y-intercept is -3. Plug this back into y=\displaystyle \frac{1}{5}x+b:

y=\displaystyle \frac{1}{5}x+(-3)\\\\y=\displaystyle \frac{1}{5}x-3

Our final equation is y=\displaystyle \frac{1}{5}x-3.

<u>Finding the Perpendicular Line</u>

y=\displaystyle \frac{1}{5} x-3

Again, the slope of this line is \displaystyle \frac{1}{5}. The slopes of perpendicular lines are negative reciprocals, so the slope of the line we're solving for would be -5. Plug this into y=mx+b:

y=-5x+b

To find the y-intercept, plug in the point (5,-2) and solve for <em>b</em>:

-2=-5(5)+b\\-2=-25+b\\-2+25=b\\23=b

Therefore, the y-intercept is 23. Plug this back into y=-5x+b:

y=-5x+23

Our final equation is y=-5x+23.

I hope this helps!

Answer:

σX​ = 3161

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard deviation is the square root of the multiplication of each probability multiplied by the squared difference between the values and the mean.

In this question:

\sigma X = \sqrt{0.999*(200-100)^2 + 0.001*(-99800-100)^2} = 3160.7

Rounding to the nearest dollar, σX​ = 3161

Evaluate the function rule for the given value. Y=12×3^x for x=-2
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

Y = 4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for Y:

3 Y = 4

Hint: | Divide both sides by a constant to simplify the equation.

Divide both sides of 3 Y = 4 by 3:

(3 Y)/3 = 4/3

Hint: | Any nonzero number divided by itself is one.

3/3 = 1:

Answer: Y = 4/3

Write a word problem with 1/2 as the dividend and 3 as the divisor. then find the quotient
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

The word problem is described.

Each child will get \frac{1}{6}\text{ kg} of wheat.

Step-by-step explanation:

Word Problem:

A woman have 0.5 kg of wheat. She need to distribute it equally among her three children. How much amount of wheat will each child get?

Solution:

Total weight of wheat  =

0.5\text{ kg} = \dfrac{1}{2}\text{ kg}

Number of children = 3

Amount of wheat each child will get =

=\dfrac{\text{Total amount of wheat}}{\text{Number of children}}\\\\=\dfrac{\frac{1}{2}}{3}\\\\(\text{Divident} = \dfrac{1}{2},\text{ Divisor} = 3)\\\\=\dfrac{1}{6}\text{ kg}\\\\=0.167\text{ kg}

Thus, each child will get \frac{1}{6}\text{ kg} of wheat.

Find the area of the following figure: 14ft 6ft 9ft
lisov135 [29]

Step-by-step explanation:

s =   a+b+c  / 2

=   14+6+9  / 2

=  14.5 feet

Area =  √s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)

=  √14.5×(14.5 - 14)×(14.5 - 6)×(14.5 - 9)

ANSWER: 18.410255294265 feet^2
