The perpendicular bisector of the line segment connecting the points $(-3,8)$ and $(-5,4)$ has an equation of the form $y = mx +

docker41 [41]

Answer:

m = -1/2 and b = 6.5

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope of the original line segment, we have to do the change in y/the change in x:

(4-8)/(-5--3) = -4/-2 = 2

2 is the slope of the original line segment, but since this is the perpendicular bisector, we have to take the negative reciprocal of 2 so m = -1/2

To find b we substitute the values of x, y, and m into the equation. Let's use the x value of -3 and the y value of 8:

y = mx + b

8 = -1/2(-3) + b

8 = 3/2 + b

6.5 = b

A campus deli serves 300 customers over its busy lunch period from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. A quick count of the number of custom

Irina-Kira [14]

Complete question is;

A campus deli serves 300 customers over its busy lunch period from 11:30 am to 1:30 pm. A quick count of the number of customers waiting in line and being served by the sandwich makers shows that an average of 10 customers are in process at any point in time. What is the average amount of time that a customer spends in process?

Answer:

4 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

For this question, we will apply Little's law which is is a theorem that determines the average number of items in a stationary queuing system, based on the average waiting time of an item within a system and the average number of items arriving at the system per unit of time.

The formula for the law is:

Inventory = flow rate × flow time.

We are given;

Inventory = 300 customers

flow time is from 11: 30am to 1:30pm which is 2 hours = 120 minutes

Flow rate = 300/120 = 2.5 persons/minute

Now, Making flow rate the subject of the formula earlier given, we have;

flow rate = inventory/ flow time

Flow time is the time each person spends in the process

Thus, plugging in the relevant values, we get ;

We are told that an average of 10 customers are in process at any point in time.

Thus;

Average flow time = average inventory/flow rate = 10/2.5 = 4 minutes

A survey of 225 students showed the mean number of hours spent studying per week was 20.6 and the standard deviations was 2.7

LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

The margin of error is approximately 0.3

Step-by-step explanation:

The following information has been provided;

The sample size, n =225 students

The sample mean number of hours spent studying per week = 20.6

The standard deviation = 2.7

The question requires us to determine the margin of error that would be associated with a 90% confidence level. In constructing confidence intervals of the population mean, the margin of error is defined as;

The product of the associated z-score and the standard error of the sample mean. The standard error of the sample mean is calculated as;

$\frac{sigma}{\sqrt{n} }$

where sigma is the standard deviation and n the sample size. The z-score associated with a 90% confidence level, from the given table, is 1.645.

The margin of error is thus;

$1.645*\frac{2.7}{\sqrt{225}}=0.2961$

Therefore, the margin of error is approximately 0.3

The sale price for a bicycle is $315 dollars. The original price was first discounted by 50% and then discounted an additional 1

Len [333]

This means that the bicycle was discounted in total by 60%, so $315 is 40% of the original price to get 40% to 100% youd multiply it by 2.5 so so the same to the price 315 x 2.5= 787.5
