Answer:

4/5x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

the slope-intercept form is y = ax+b

a is the slope, to figure it out the line is perpendicular to y = -5/4x+11/4

There is a rule said if two lines are perpendiculars, the multiplication of their slopes = -1, so -5/4 * a = 1, solve for a = 4/5

b is the intercept to get it use the point (0,7)

so y = 4/5x+b, 7 = 4/5 * 0 + b, then b = 7

I need an answer to this asap... please ....just number 3

Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

hence cos ( 2 A ) = cos 2 A − ( 1 − cos 2 A ) = 2 cos 2 A − 1

Step-by-step explanation:Well we know that for two angles A , B

it holds that cos ( A + B ) = cos A cos B − sin A ⋅ sin B hence for A = B you get cos ( 2 A ) = cos 2 A − sin 2 A But sin 2 A = 1 − cos 2 A

If the factors of quadratic function g are (x − 7) and (x + 3), what are the zeros of function g?

MArishka [77]

Answer: B. -3 and 7

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the zeros, just move the constants to the other side,

x - 7 ⇒ x = 7

x + 3 ⇒ x = -3

If the number is moved to the other side its sign becomes opposite

Hope it helps!

Andrew fish tank holds 144 gallons of water. To clean the tank, he drains the water at a rate the water at a rate of 6 gallons p

Kobotan [32]

Answer:

8 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the level of the tank needs to be at two-thirds its original level, then this means that Andrew needs to drain only one-third of the fish tank. Therefore the amount of time it would take can easily be solved with this 2-step equation...

6t = 144 * $\frac{1}{3}$ .... first multiply the right side of the equation

6t = 48 ... next divide both sides by 6

t = 8

Finally, we can see that it will take Andrew 8 minutes to drain the tank to two-thirds of its original level.

Suppose the weights of Farmer Carl's potatoes are normally distributed with a mean of 8.0 ounces and a standard deviation of 1.1

svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

a) 0.9959 = 99.59% probability that the mean weight is less than 9.3 ounces

b) 0.0129 = 1.29% probability that the mean weight is more than 9.0 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ .
