What is the equation of a line that is perpendicular to the line y = -3x + 2 and passes through the point (6,8)?

Answer:

y = 1/3x+6

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -3x+2 is in slope intercept form  y = mx+b  where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

The slope is -3

Perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals

The slope of the perpendicular line is  -1/-3 = 1/3

The equation of the new line is

y = 1/3x +b

Using the point that passes through the line ( 6,8) and substituting in for x and y

8 = 1/3(6) +b

8 = 2+b

8-2 =b

6 =b

The equation becomes

y = 1/3x+6

Four plumbers estimated the length of the radius of a cylindrical pipe. The estimates made by
o-na [289]

Answer:

B. \frac{\sqrt{3}}{11}, \frac{\pi}{24}, \frac{3}{25},  \frac{9}{100}

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is not properly presented. See attachment for proper presentation of question

From the attachment, we have that:

W = \frac{3}{25}

X = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{11}

Y = \frac{9}{100}

Z = \frac{\pi}{24}

Required

Order from greatest to least

First, we need to simplify each of the given expression (in decimals)

W = \frac{3}{25}

W = 0.12

X = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{11}

Take square root of 3

X = \frac{1.73205080757}{11}

X = 0.15745916432

X = 0.16 --- approximated

Y = \frac{9}{100}

Y = 0.09

Z = \frac{\pi}{24}

Take π as 3.14

Z = \frac{3.14}{24}

Z = 0.13083333333

Z = 0.13  --- approximated

List out the results, we have:

W = 0.12    X = 0.16    Y = 0.09    Z = 0.13

Order from greatest to least, we have:

X = 0.16     Z = 0.13      W = 0.12       Y = 0.09

Hence, the order of arrangement is:

X = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{11}     Z = \frac{\pi}{24}      W = \frac{3}{25}      Y = \frac{9}{100}

i.e.

\frac{\sqrt{3}}{11}, \frac{\pi}{24}, \frac{3}{25},  \frac{9}{100}

Kyle received the following course grades for 10​ (three-credit) courses during his freshman​ year:
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

(a) The average grade point is 2.5.

(b) The relative frequency table is show below.

(c) The mean of the relative frequency distribution is 0.3333.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given data set is

4, 4, 4, 3, 3, 3, 1, 1, 1, 1

(a)

The average grade point is

Average=\frac{\sum x}{n}

Average=\frac{4+4+4+3+3+3+1+1+1+1}{10}

Average=2.5

Therefore the average grade point is 2.5.

(b)

\text{Relative frequency}=\frac{\text{Frequency of number}}{\text{Total frequency}}

The relative frequency table is show below:

x                 f                  Relative frequency

4                3                 \frac{3}{10}=0.3

3                3                 \frac{3}{10}=0.3

1                 4                 \frac{4}{10}=0.4

(c)

Mean of the relative frequency distribution is

Average=\frac{0.3+0.3+0.4}{3}

Average=0.3333

Therefore the mean of the relative frequency distribution is 0.3333.

So you convert the fraction into a decimal then multiply it by 100 so the percentage would be 180%

marin [14]
An outlier for a data set is a number which stands out, meaning it is not close to the rest of the numbers. It can either be greater OR less than the rest of the numbers. 

<span>23, 34, 27, 7, 30, 26, 28, 31, 34

Which number stands out from this data set?

Yep! 7. This is because it is not close to the other numbers, whereas the other numbers are closer to each other.

A) 7.</span>
