What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (4,-4) and has a<br> slope of -5/2?

3. Compare corresponding sides that include the

slega [8]

Answer:

AB/AD=1/2 AC/AE=1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between 2 points A(x1; y1) and B(x2; y2) can be calculated as:

AB= sqrt((x1-x2)²+(y1-y2)²)

So in our case AB= sqrt ((1-3)²+(4-1)²)= sqrt(2²+3²)=sqrt(13)

AD=sqrt ((-1-3)²+(7-1)²)= sqrt(4²+6²)=sqrt(52)

AB/AD=sqrt(13)/sqrt(52)= sqrt(13/52)=sqrt(1/4) =1/2

AB/AD =1/2

AC= sqrt ((5-3)²+(3-1)²)= sqrt(2²+2²)=sqrt(8)

AE=sqrt ((7-3)²+(5-1)²)= sqrt(4²+4²)=sqrt(32)

AC/AE=sqrt(8)/sqrt(32)= sqrt(8/32)=sqrt(1/4)=1/2

AC/AE=1/2

Find the domain of h(x)= 1/ 3x^2-15x

Schach [20]

Hello!

To find the domain of the function h(x), we need to find the values of x where it is undefined.

We can begin by factoring the denominator of the rational function, h(x).

h(x) = 1/(3x² - 15x) (factor 3x from the binomial)

h(x) = 1/3x(x - 5)

After factoring the denominator, apply the zero product property.

3x = 0 (divide both sides by 3)

x = 0

x - 5 = 0 (add 5 to both sides)

x = 5

The values of 0 and 5 cause h(x) to be undefined. The function h(x) comes from negative infinity to zero, where there is an asymptote. Also, from zero to five, there is also an asymptote. Finally, the function h(x) also goes to infinity from five.

So therefore, the domain of the function h(x) is: (-∞, 0) ∪ (0, 5) ∪ (5, ∞).

A recent survey describes the total sleep time per night among college students as approximately Normally distributed with mean

marin [14]

Answer:

a) $\sigma_{\bar X}= \frac{1.26}{\sqrt{165}}= 0.0981$

b) We expect 68% of the values between : (6.6219, 6.8181)

We expect 95% of the values between : (6.5238, 6.9162)

We expect 99.7% of the values between : (6.4257, 7.0143)

c) $z = \frac{6.9-6.72}{0.0981}= 1.835$

And we can use the z normal table or excel and we got:

$P(Z$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".

Let X the random variable that represent the total sleep time of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

$X \sim N(6.72,1.26)$

Where $\mu=6.72$ and $\sigma=1.26$

(a) What is the standard deviation for the average time in hours? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)

For this case the sample mean have the following distirbution

$\bar X \sim N(\mu, \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})$

And the deviation is given by:

$\sigma_{\bar X}= \frac{1.26}{\sqrt{165}}= 0.0981$

in minutes?= (Round your answer to three decimal places.)

(b) Use the 95 part of the 68–95–99.7 rule to describe the variability of this sample mean. (Round your answer to four decimal places.)

The empirical rule, also known as three-sigma rule or 68-95-99.7 rule, "is a statistical rule which states that for a normal distribution, almost all data falls within three standard deviations (denoted by σ) of the mean (denoted by µ)".

• The probability of obtain values within one deviation from the mean is 0.68

• The probability of obtain values within two deviation's from the mean is 0.95

• The probability of obtain values within three deviation's from the mean is 0.997

We expect 68% of the values between : (6.6219, 6.8181)

We expect 95% of the values between : (6.5238, 6.9162)

We expect 99.7% of the values between : (6.4257, 7.0143)

(c) What is the probability that your average will be below 6.9 hours? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)

For this case we can use the z score formula given by:

$z = \frac{\bar X -\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$

And we can find the z score for 6.9 and we got:

$z = \frac{6.9-6.72}{0.0981}= 1.835$

And we can use the z normal table or excel and we got:

$P(Z$

Find the area of the regular polygon below. leave your answer in simplest radical form.

Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

384√3 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in the question a regular 6 sided polygon

To find it's area you have to use the following formula

<h3> 1/2 x perimeter x apothem</h3>

<em>Perimeter = the sum of the lengths of all the sides </em>

<em>Suppose length of one side = x</em>

<em>Apothem = a segment that joins the polygon's centre to the midpoint of any side that is perpendicular to that side = 8√3</em>

<em />

Since the polygon have 6 sides so

perimeter = 6x

x = 2(8)

x = 16

perimeter = 6(16) = 96 in

plug values in the formula of area

384√3 in²

Two gears in a machine are aligned by a mark drawn from the center of one gear to the center of the other. If the first gear has

Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

for the first gear

revolutions/teeth

1 / 24

2 / 48

3 / 72

4 / 96

5 / 120

6 / 144

for the second gear

revolutions/teeth

1 / 40

2 / 80

3 / 120

4 / 160

<em>the two marks will meet after 120 teeth, 5 revolutions of the first gear and 3 revolutions of the second.</em>

the way to get that amount of teeth is

$24 = 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 3 = {2}^{3} \times 3$

$40 = 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 5 = {2}^{3} \times 5$

the Least Common Multiple equals the product of all factors, but those factors who are repeted for both numbers should be only once.

${2}^{3} \times 5 \times 3 = 120$

120 teeth are 5 revolutions for gear1 and 3 por gear2
