Step-by-step explanation:Equation of line perpendicular to , x=4 is

y +k=0

As, keep in mind , the equation of line perpendicular to , ax + by +c=0 is b x - a y +c=0

As, given the line perpendicular to, x =4, passes through the point (5,7).

So, y+k =0, passes through (5,7).

→ 7 +k=0

→ k= -7

So, line perpendicular to x=4, which passes through the point (5,7) is →y-7=0 that is y=7.

I need to know the points of T and how to get it

german

Answer: (-2, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

When you approach these types of questions, first look for a pattern. Both the x and y value are divided by 2.5 in the image, so do the same with point t. The image would be -5/2.5, -5,2.5 or -2, -2

Use the arc length formula to find the length of the curve y = 4x − 5, −1 ≤ x ≤ 2. check your answer by noting that the curve is

professor190 [17]

Ok, here we go. Pay attention. The formula for the arc length is $AL= \int\limits^b_a { \sqrt{1+( \frac{dy}{dx})^2 } } \, dx$ . That means that to use that formula we have to find the derivative of the function and square it. Our function is y = 4x-5, so y'=4. Our formula now, filled in accordingly, is $AL= \int\limits^2_1 { \sqrt{1+4^2} } \, dx$ (that 1 is supposed to be negative; not sure if it is til I post the final answer). After the simplification we have the integral from -1 to 2 of $\sqrt{17}$ . Integrating that we have $AL= \sqrt{17}x$ from -1 to 2. $2 \sqrt{17}-(-1 \sqrt{17} )$ gives us $3 \sqrt{17}$ . Now we need to do the distance formula with this. But we need 2 coordinates for that. Our bounds are x=-1 and x=2. We will fill those x values in to the function and solve for y. When x = -1, y=4(-1)-5 and y = -9. So the point is (-1, -9). Doing the same with x = 2, y=4(2)-5 and y = 3. So the point is (2, 3). Use those in the distance formula accordingly: $d= \sqrt{(2-(-1))^2+(3-(-9))^2}$ which simplifies to $d= \sqrt{9+144}= \sqrt{153}$ . The square root of 153 can be simplified into the square root of 9*17. Pulling out the perfect square of 9 as a 3 leaves us with $3 \sqrt{17}$ . And there you go!

Margarita traces a circle with a radius of 20 centimeters like the one shown below. She will color in the shaded region. What is

lana66690 [7]

Answer:

314 cm ^ 2

Step-by-step explanation:

First do, 3.14 x 20 ^ 2

3.14 x 20 ^ 2 = 1,256

Then do, 1,256/4

1,256/4 = 314

Why 4?

This part of the circle is 1/4 of the entire circle.

What does ^ mean?

It's just a way to say to the power of on a computer.

Hope this helps! :)

The weekly earnings of students in one age group are normally distributed with a standard deviation of 47 dollars. A researcher

ELEN [110]

Answer:

Option D) 340

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Alpha, α = 0.05

Population standard deviation, σ = $47

Margin of error = 5

95% Confidence Interval:

$\mu \pm z_{critical}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

$\text{Margin of error} = z_{critical}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

Putting the values, we get,

$z_{critical}\text{ at}~\alpha_{0.05} = 1.96$

$5 = 1.96(\dfrac{47}{\sqrt{n}} )\\\\\sqrt{n} = \dfrac{47\times 1.96}{5}\\\\n = 339.443776\\\Rightarrow n \approx 340$

Thus, the correct answer is

Option D) 340
