So we want to find the equation of a line parallel to
[tex]y=-\frac{4}{5}x+12[/tex]Passing through the point (-6,2).
First, remember that a line is parallel to other if their slopes are the same.
Then, the slope of our parallel line will be also -4/5.
Remember that a line has the following equation:
[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]Where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
Now, we know that the parallel line has slope = -4/5 and passes through the point (x,y) = (-6,2), so we could replace in our previous equation as follows:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 2=-\frac{4}{5}(-6)+b \\ 2=\frac{24}{5}+b \\ b=2-\frac{24}{5} \\ b=-\frac{14}{5} \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, the equation of the parallel line to y=(-4/5)x+12 passing through (-6,2) is:
[tex]y=-\frac{4}{5}x-\frac{14}{5}[/tex]

Pete Corporation produces bags of peanuts. Its fixed cost is $18,200. Each bag sells for $3.43 with a unit cost of $1.83. What is Pete’s breakeven point?
Let's call x to the bags of peanuts. One bag has a variable cost of $1.83, then the variable cost of x bags is 1.83x dollars.
The total cost of production for the corporation is obtained by adding fixed and variable costs. In this case, the total cost is 18,200 + 1.83x dollars.
The revenue for the corporation of 1 bag is $3.43, then of x bags is 3.43x dollars.
When the revenue and the total cost are equal, the breakeven point is reached, in this case:
18,200 + 1.83x = 3.43x
18,200 = 3.43x - 1.83x
18,200 = 1.6x
18,200/1.6 = x
11375 = x
The cost of production of 11375 bags is:
Total Cost = 18,200 + 1.83*11375
Total Cost = 18,200 + 20816.25
Total Cost = 39016.25
Pete’s breakeven point is (11375, 39016.25), or, 11375 bags and $39,016.25

Is the function g(x) invertible?
Remember that a function is only invertible if it is one-to-one.
This means that each output can be only mapped from a single input (the outputs are the values of g(x) and the inputs the values of x).
In the table, we can see the pairs (-1, 4) and (1, 4).
So both inputs x = -1 and x = 1 have the same output, this means that the function is not one-to-one, so it is not invertible.

in this problem you will use a ruler to estimate the length of AC. afterwards you will be able to see the lengths of the other two sides and you will use the pythagorean theorem to check your answer
Answer:
5.124
Explanation:
Given the following sides
AB = 6.5cm
BC = 4.0cm
Required
AC
Using the pythagoras theorem;
AB^2 = AC^2 + BC^2
6.5^2 = AC^2 + 4^2
42.25 = AC^2 + 16
AC^2 = 42.25 - 16
AC^2 = 26.25
AC = \sqrt{26.25}
AC = 5.124
Hence the actual length of AC to 3dp is 5.124
5) 40,20,10,5, _,_,_a) Explain and Complete the sequence.B) write an explicit and recursive formula for the sequence
We have the sequence: 40, 20, 10, 5,...
Each term is half the previous term, so it is a geometrical sequence with common ratio r = 0.5.
We can not complete the sequence, as it becomes infinitely smaller and does not have a last term.
But we can write the three next terms to complete the blank spaces: 2.5, 1.25, 0.625.
We can start by writing the recursive formula. We know that each term is half the value of the previous term, so we wil have:
[tex]a_n=0.5\cdot a_{n-1}[/tex]From this recursive formula, we can deduce the explicit formula (in terms of n) as:
[tex]\begin{gathered} a_1=40 \\ a_2=0.5\cdot40=20 \\ a_3=0.5\cdot20=0.5\cdot(0.5\cdot40)=0.5^2\cdot40=10 \\ a_4=0.5\cdot10=0.5\cdot(0.5^2\cdot40)=0.5^3\cdot40 \\ \Rightarrow a_n=40\cdot0.5^{n-1} \end{gathered}[/tex]Answer:
a) Geometric sequence with r = 0.5.
The sequence first terms are: 40, 20, 10, 5, 2.5, 1.25, 0.625.

The perimeter of a rectangle is 48 centimeters. The relationship between the length, the width, and the perimeter of the rectangle can be described with the equation 2⋅length+2⋅width=48. Find the length, in centimeters, if the width is w centimeters
Using the relationship between the dimension of a rectangle and its perimeter, given its perimeter and width, the length is: 20.4 cm.
Recall:
Perimeter of a rectangle (P) = 2(L + W) (relationship between the width, length and perimeter)
Given:
Width (W) = 3.6 cm
Perimeter (P) = 48 cm
Length (L) = ?
Using the relationship between the dimension of a rectangle and its perimeter, the following equation would be derived:
48 = 2(L + 3.6)
Solve for the value of L
48 = 2L + 7.2
Subtract 7.2 from each side
48 - 7.2 = 2L
40.8 = 2L
Divide both sides by 2
20.4 = L
L = 20.4 cm
Therefore, using the relationship between the dimension of a rectangle and its perimeter, given its perimeter and width, the length is: 20.4 cm.

A 14 m long ladder is placed against a tree. The top of the ladder reaches a point
13 m up the tree.
How far away is the base of the ladder from the base of the tree?
Give your answer in metres (m) to 1 d.p.
Answer:
Approximately 5.2 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
This formation will make a right triangle. The ground to the point in the tree is one of the legs. The base of the tree to the base of ladder is another leg and the length of the ladder is the hypotenuse. In this case, we already have the hypotenuse and one of the legs, so we need to find the value of another leg.
We can do so by using the Pythagorean Theorem which is [tex]a^2+b^2=c^2\\[/tex].
a and b represent the values of the two legs, and c is the hypotenuse. Since we already have the hypotenuse, we can change this equation a bit to find the other leg.
Let's assign the missing value, b in the theorem.
The new equation will be [tex]b^2=c^2-a^2[/tex].
We can insert the values for c and a and solve for b.
The new equation will be [tex]b^2 = 14^2-13^2[/tex].
[tex]b^2=196-169[/tex]
[tex]b^2=27[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{b^2} =\sqrt{27}[/tex]
The square root of [tex]b^2[/tex] cancels out.
The approximate square root of 27 is 5.19 which we can round to 5.2.

Find the probability of wearing a seat belt, given that the driver did not survive a car accident. Part 1: The probability as a decimal is _ (Round to 3 decimal places as needed.) Part 2: The probability as a fraction is _
Conditional probability is a measure of the probability of an event occurring, given that another event has already occurred.
The table shows the outcome of car accidents by whether or not the driver wearing a seat belt.
Let's call:
A = The event of the driver wearing a seat belt in a car accident.
B = The event of the driver dying in a car accident
The conditional probability is calculated as follows:
[tex]P(A|B)=\frac{P(A\cap B)}{P(B)}[/tex]The conditional probability stated in the formula is that for the driver wearing a seat belt knowing he did not survive the car accident.
The numerator of the formula is the probability of both events occurring, i.e., the driver wore a seat belt and died. The denominator is the simple probability that the driver died in a car accident.
From the table, we can intersect the first column and the second row to find the number of outcomes where both events occurred. The probability of A ∩ B is:
[tex]P(A\cap B)=\frac{511}{583,470}[/tex]The probability of B is:
[tex]P(B)=\frac{2217}{583,470}[/tex]The required probability is:
[tex]P(A|B)=\frac{\frac{511}{583,470}}{\frac{2217}{583,470}}[/tex]Simplifying the common denominators:

Answer
Option D is correct.
R' (1.5, 2)
Explanation
A dilation means the size is increased or decreased. If the scale factor is less than 1, then the size is decreased, but if the scale factor is more than 1, it means the figure is enlarged.
Dilating about the origin just multiplies the coordinates by the scale factor. So, dilating (x, y) about the origin by a scale factor k, gives new coordinates (kx, ky).
For this question, we need to dilate R (3, 4) by a scale factor, r = ½
R' = [½(3), ½(4)] = (1.5, 2)

From the given question we know that among 240 cell phone owners aged 18 - 24 surveyed, 108 said their phone was an android phone.
So the total number of cell phone owners aged 18 - 24 is 240.
So n=240
From them 108 have an android phone.
So x=108
Estimation of sample proportion([tex]\hat p[/tex]) = x/n
Now putting the value
Estimation of sample proportion([tex]\hat p[/tex]) = 108/240
Estimation of sample proportion([tex]\hat p[/tex]) = 0.45

As we know that
[tex]\hat p=0.45[/tex]
Now finding the value of [tex]z_{\alpha /2}[/tex]
We have to find the 90% confidence interval. We can write 90% as 90/100 = 0.90
So [tex]\alpha[/tex] = 1-0.90
So [tex]z_{\alpha /2}=z_{0.10 /2}[/tex]
[tex]z_{\alpha /2}=z_{0.05}[/tex]
From the standard z table
[tex]z_{0.05}[/tex] = 1.645
Now putting the value in the
C.I. = [tex](\hat p \pm z_{\alpha /2}\sqrt\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}})[/tex]
C.I. = [tex](0.45 \pm 1.645{\sqrt\frac{0.45(1-0.45)}{240}})[/tex]
Simplifying
C.I. = [tex](0.45 \pm 1.645{\sqrt\frac{0.45\times0.55}{240}})[/tex]
C.I. = [tex](0.45 \pm 1.645{\sqrt\frac{0.2475}{240}})[/tex]
C.I. = [tex](0.45 \pm 1.645\sqrt{0.001031})[/tex]
C.I. = [tex](0.45 \pm 1.645\times0.0321)[/tex]
C.I. = [tex](0.45 \pm 0.053)[/tex]
We can write it as
C.I. = {(0.45+0.053),(0.45-0.053)}
C.I. = (0.503,0.397)

By solving an equation we can say that Sarah needs to blend a total of 96 pounds of coffee beans.
What are equations?A mathematical equation is a formula that uses the equals sign to represent the equality of two expressions. A mathematical statement that has an "equal to" symbol between two expressions with equal values is called an equation. As in 3x + 5 Equals 15, for instance. Equations come in a variety of forms, including linear, quadratic, cubic, and others. The point-slope form, standard form, and slope-intercept form are the three main types of linear equations.So, the total pounds Sarah needs to blend:
Let the number of pounds by 'x'.Now form an equation as:
5.50x + 3.50x = 190 × 4.55Then, solve equation for 'x' as follows:
5.50x + 3.50x = 190 × 4.559x = 864.5x = 864.5/9x = 96 pounds

9b 9a) Use the slope formula to determine the rate of change eq y- and find the y-intercept "5" by substituting the x and y values into y=mx + b
A) We need to find the rate of change of the function first.
The rate of change or slope of the line is:
[tex]m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1_{}}[/tex]Where x and y are the coordinates of a point in line.
In order to calculate the slope we can take the poinst:
x1 = -6, y1 = 4
x2 = -2, y2= 1
Using the formula of above we find that the slope is:
[tex]m=\frac{1-4}{-2-(-6)}=-\frac{3}{4}[/tex]Now, in order to find the value of y-intercept of the line we can use formula:
[tex]y=m\cdot x+b[/tex]Which is the function of the line. From the formula of above we don't know the value of b (the y-intercept).
But we know that the formula must be valid for a point in the line. We can find the value of b replacing the coordinates of a point in the line, let's choose: x = -6 and y = 4, so:
[tex]4=\text{ m}\cdot(-6)+b[/tex]Now we use the value of m of above:
[tex]4=(-\frac{3}{4})\cdot(-6)+b[/tex]And from the last equation we can see that:
[tex]b=4-\frac{3}{4}\cdot6=4-\frac{9}{2}=\frac{8}{2}-\frac{9}{2}=-\frac{1}{2}[/tex]So, the equation of the line is:
[tex]y\text{ = -}\frac{\text{3}}{4}\cdot x-\frac{1}{2}[/tex]And the y-intercept is obtain replacing x = 0, so the y-intercept is: y = -1/2
b) From the stepts of above we already know an equation that represents the function! It is:
[tex]y\text{ = -}\frac{\text{3}}{4}\cdot x-\frac{1}{2}[/tex]c) Now, we need to use the last equation to find y = n in the table. We know from the table that the value x for that value of y is x = 3, so we replace that value in the equation of the line:
[tex]y\text{ = -}\frac{\text{3}}{4}\cdot3-\frac{1}{2}=-\frac{9}{4}-\frac{1}{2}=-\frac{9}{4}-\frac{2}{4}=-\frac{11}{4}[/tex]So the value of n is:
[tex]n\text{ = -}\frac{\text{11}}{4}[/tex]Bobby was making a road trip to visit his parents. He stopped for gas and bought x number of gallons for $2.25 per gallon and a soda for $1.75. How much did he spend at the gas station if her purchased 15 gallons of gas?
Answer:
$35.5
Explanation:
If Bobby purchased 15 gallons of gas and each gallon cost $2.25, the total cost of the gallons of gas is:
15 x $2.25 = $33.75
Adittionally, Bobby bought a soda for $1.75, so he spend a total of:
$33.75 + $1.75 = $35.5
So, he spends $35.5
The selling price of a refrigerator, is $537.60. If the markup is 5% of the dealer's cost, what is the dealer's cost of the refrigerator?
The cost price of dealer is $512.
We have to find the dealer's cost of refrigerator.
We know that mark up is on dealer's cost.
We have been given the markup as 5%
Let the dealer's cost of refrigerator be x,
Now, we know that there is a markup on it
So, we will calculate the marked up price
Marked up price = (Cost price * Markup percent)/100 + cost price
Marked up price = x*5/100 + x
Marked up price = 5x/100 + x
Marked up price = x/20 + x = (x+20x)20
Marked up price = 21x/20
We know that marked up price is the selling price and we have been given the selling price of the refrigerator
537.60 = 21x/20
537.60*20 = 21x
10752 = 21x
x = 10752/21
x = 512
The dealer's cost price is $512.
