Write the equation of a line perpendicular to the line: y=−5/2x+4 that goes through the point (-6, 0).

Mathematics
1 answer:
NikAS [45]3 years ago
3 0

Step-by-step explanation:

the line given slope = x coefficient = -5/2

Perpendicular slopes must be opposite reciprocals of each other:  m1 * m2 = –1

new slope = 2/5

line equation formula = y = mx+ b

m = slope

y= 2/5x + b

from the point given (-6,0)

x = -6

y = 0

0= -12/5 + b

b = +12/5

line equation =

y =  \frac{2}{5} x +  \frac{12}{5}

A person gets on and off a bathroom scale four times. The four readings (in pounds) are 148, 151, 150, and 152. Each time after
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

See explanation below

Step-by-step explanation:

Since each time after the person gets off the scale, the reading is 2 lb the person's weight must be near the mean of

148-2, 151-2, 150-2, 152-2; that is to say, near the mean of 146, 149, 148, 150 = (146+149+148+150)/4 = 148.25

We could estimate the uncertainty as <em>the standard error SE </em>

\bf SE=\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}  

where  

<em>s = standard deviation of the sample </em>

<em>n = 4 sample size. </em>

Computing s:

\bf s=\sqrt{\frac{(146-148.25)^2+(149-148.25)^2+(148-148.25)^2+(150-148.25)^2}{4}}=1.479

So, the uncertainty is 1.479/2 = 0.736

<em>It is not possible to estimate the bias, since it is the difference between the true weight and the mean, but we do not know the true weight. </em>

Question 4 of 10
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

Option C. 3√3

Step-by-step explanation:

Please see attached photo for brief explanation.

In the attached photo, we obtained the following:

Opposite = a

Adjacent = 3

Hypothenus = 6

Angle θ = 60°

We can obtain the value of 'a' as follow:

Tan θ = Opposite /Adjacent

Tan 60° = a/3

Cross multiply

a = 3 x Tan 60°

But: Tan 60° = √3

a = 3 x Tan 60°

a = 3 x √3

a = 3√3

Therefore, the length of the altitude of the equilateral triangle is 3√3.
