The lines graphed below are perpendicular. The slope of the red line is -1/3. What is the slope of the green line?

Answer:

The slope of the green line is 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

<em><u>Definition: </u></em>If the two lines are said to be perpendicular, than the multiplication of their slope is -1.

In other words, the slope of the perpendicular line is the negative reciprocal of the given slope of the line.

Here we are slope of the red line, which is -1/3

Let's take it as "m1"

Let's take "m2" the slope of the green line.

By the above definition,

m_1 *m_2 = -1

Given: m_1 = -\frac{1}{3}

Now plug m1 value in the above statement, we get

-\frac{1}{3} *m_2 = -1

Multiply both sides by reciprocal of -1/3. The reciprocal of -1/3 = -3

-3*-\frac{1}{3} *m_2 = -3*-1

m_2 = 3

Therefore, the slope of the green line is 3.

A hot air balloon is flying at a constant speed of 20 mi/h at a bearing of N 36° E. There is a 10mi/h crosswind blowing due east
crimeas [40]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

v = {[(20sin36°)i + (20cos36°)j] + 10i} mi/h

 

vE = 20sin36º + 10 = 21.76 mi/h

 

vN = 20cos36° = 16.18 mi/h

 

v = √(vE2 + vN2) = √(21.762 + 16.182) mi/h = 27.12 mi/h

 

θ = tan-1(vN/vE) = tan-1(16.18/21.76) = 36.6º north of east

What interest will be earned if $6300 is invested for 3 years at 12% compounded monthly?  Write your answer rounded to the neare
Butoxors [25]
Answer:
Interest earned = 2713.8

Explanation:
We will solve this problem on two steps:
1- get the final amount after three years
2- get the interest earned by subtracting the initial amount from the final one.

1- getting the final amount after 3 years:
The formula that we will use is as follows:
A = P (1 + r/n)^(nt)
where:
A is the final amount we want to calculate
P is the initial amount = 6300
r is the interest = 0.12
n is the number of compounds per year =12
t is time in years = 3

Substitute to get the final amount:
A = P (1 + r/n)^(nt)
A = 6300 (1 + 0.12/12) ^ (12*3)
A = 9013.8

2- getting the interest earned:
Interest earned = final amount - initial amount
Interest earned = 9013.8 - 6300
Interest earned = 2713.8

Hope this helps :)

If →u and →v are the vectors below, find the vector →w whose tail is at the point halfway from the tip of →v to the tip of →v−→u
S_A_V [24]
Û = (-1, -1, -1)
^v = (2, 3, -5)
^v - û = (2 + 1, 3 + 1, -5 + 1) = (3, 4, -4)
Half way from ^v to ^(v - u) = ((3 - 2)/2, (4 - 3)/2, (-4 + 5)/2) = (1/2, 1/2, 1/2)
Halfway from û to ^v = ((2 + 1)/2, (3 + 1)/2, (-5 + 1)/2) = (3/2, 2, -2)

The required vector ^w = ((3/2 - 1/2), (2 - 1/2), (-2 - 1/2)) = (1, 1/2, -5/2)

​You'd like to estimate the proportion of the 12,152 full-time undergraduate students at a university who are foreign students.
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

a) The data distribution consists of ( 7 )​1's (denoting a foreign ​student) and ( 43 )0's (denoting a student from the​ U.S.).

b) The population distribution consists of the​ x-values of the population of 12,152 full-time undergraduate students at the​university, ( 6 )​% of which are​ 1's (denoting a foreign​ student) and ( 94 )% of which are​ 0's (denoting a student from the​ U.S.).

c) The mean is ( 0.06 )

The standard deviation is ( 0.0336 )

The sampling distribution represents the probability distribution of the ( sample ) proportion of foreign students in a random sample of ( 50 ) students. In this​ case, the sampling distribution is approximately normal with a mean of ( 0.06 ) and a standard deviation of ( 0.0336 )
