Find an equation for the line passing through the point (6,1) and perpendicular to the line y=4x-2

Mathematics

Murrr4er [49]2 years ago

Answer:

y = -1/4x + 2.5

or

y = -1/4x + 5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

First we know that a perpendicular line is one that intersects at a 90-degree angle. This is simply the negative inverse of the slope in our case. So, 4 turns into -1/4 and that is our new slope. Next we know that we want it to pass through the point (6,1). Right now our equation is y = -1/4x + b. We can plug (6,1) into this equation and solve.

1 = -1/4(6) + b

1 = -6/4 + b

4/4 + 6/4 = 10/4

10/4 = b

simplify: 5/2 or 2.5 = b

Now we have our y-intercept, so we can complete our equation.

y = -1/4x + 2.5

or

y = -1/4x + 5/2

Identify the phrase that cannot be described by the same absolute value as the other three. Explain your reasoning.
r-ruslan [8.4K]
The answer would probably be 18 degrees below normal because the absolute values of the rest are 8 not 18 which is the absolute value of 18 degrees below normal.

A random sample of 49 statistics examinations was taken. the average score, in the sample, was 84 with a variance of 12.25. the
tester [92]

Since in this case we are only using the variance of the sample and not the variance of the real population, therefore we use the t statistic. The formula for the confidence interval is:

<span>CI = X ± t * s / sqrt(n)                      ---> 1</span>

Where,

X = the sample mean = 84

t = the t score which is obtained in the standard distribution tables at 95% confidence level

s = sample variance = 12.25

n = number of samples = 49

From the table at 95% confidence interval and degrees of freedom of 48 (DOF = n -1), the value of t is around:

t = 1.68

 

Therefore substituting the given values to equation 1:

CI = 84 ± 1.68 * 12.25 / sqrt(49)

CI = 84 ± 2.94

CI = 81.06, 86.94

 

<span>Therefore at 95% confidence level, the scores is from 81 to 87.</span>
