Answer:

y=3/2x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

You’re trying to find the perpendicular like equation of y=-2/3x+4 that passes through (-2,-2). Use reciprocal of slope -2/3= 3/2. use y=mx+b and plug in info, (-2,-2) will be plugged in for both y and x and 3/2 will be plugged in for m making -2=(3/2)(-2)+b. Multiply the () to get -2=-3+b, add 3 to both sides of the equation to get 1=b. Use your info to make the finished equation y=3/2x+1

Answer:

$y = \frac{3}{2}x + 1$

Step-by-step explanation:

-2 = 1½[-2] + b

-3

1 = b

y = 1½x + 1

** 1½ = 3⁄2

Perpendicular Lines have OPPOSITE MULTIPLICATIVE INVERSE RATE OF CHANGES [SLOPES]:

-⅔ → 1½

The histogram shows the number of hours the students in Mr. Quentin's class spent doing online research for a science fair proje

Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

C) Skewed Left

Step-by-step explanation:

From the above histogram given, it can observed visually that fewer students spent less hours in Mr. Quentin's class engaging in the online research for the project, while majority of the students spent more hours.

Thus, the histogram is skewed to the left, having a non symmetric shape with a lopsided mound which is bigger on the left of the histogram and smaller to the right of the histogram, as we have few students who spent less hours compared to the vast majority that spent more hours on the research.

Insert 6 arthematic mean between 5 and -9

astraxan [27]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider 5 and - 9 to be terms in an arithmetic sequence and we require to find the 6 terms between them.

The n th term of an arithmetic sequence is

$a_{n}$ = a + (n - 1)d ← d is required

Here a = 5 and $a_{8}$ = - 9, hence

5 + 7d = - 9 ( subtract 5 from both terms )

7d = - 14 ( divide both sides by 7 )

d = - 2

---------------------------------------------------------

The terms in the sequence are

5, 5 - 2, 5 - 4, 5 - 6, 5 - 8, 5 - 10, 5 - 12, - 9 , that is

5, 3, 1, - 1, - 3, - 5, - 7, -9

With the 6 arithmetic means being

3, 1, - 1, - 3, - 5, - 7
