Given:
5 - 12
To find the difference , all we have to do is to perform the subtraction. The result of subtraction is called the difference.
Subtract 12 from 5.
Thus, we have:
5 - 12 = -7
Therefore, the difference between 5 and 12 is -7
1. Write the equation of a line perpendicular to thex 5and that passes through thepoint (6,-4).line y
The line we want has a slope that is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the line
y = -(1/2)x - 5
The slope of this line is -1/2. So, the slope of its perpendicular lines is 2. Therefore, their equations have the form:
y = 2x + b
Now, to find b, we use the values of the coordinates of the point (6, -4) in that equation:
-4 = 2*6 + b
-4 = 12 + b
b = -4 - 12 = -16
Therefore, the equation is y = 2x - 16.

(b) Fixed cost, $400; 10 items cost $650 to produce. (c) Fixed cost, $1000; 40 items cost $2000 to produce. (d) Fixed cost, $8500; 75 items cost $11,875 to produce. (e) Marginal cost, $50; 80 items cost $4500 to produce. (f)Marginal cost, $120; 100 items cost $15,800 to produce. (g) Marginal cost, $90; 150 items cost $16,000 to produce. (h) Marginal cost, $120; 700 items cost $96,500 to produce.
Given:
Cost function is defined as,
[tex]\begin{gathered} C(x)=mx+b \\ m=\text{marginal cost} \\ b=\text{fixed cost} \end{gathered}[/tex]a) Fixed cost = $100, 50 items cost $1600.
The cost function is given as,
[tex]\begin{gathered} C=\text{Fixed cost+}x(\text{ production cost)} \\ x\text{ is number of items produced} \\ \text{Given that, }50\text{ items costs \$1600} \\ 1600=100\text{+50}(\text{ production cost)} \\ \text{production cost=}\frac{1600-100}{50} \\ \text{production cost}=30 \end{gathered}[/tex]So, the cost function is,
[tex]C=30x+100[/tex]b) Fixed cost = $400, 10 items cost $650.
[tex]\begin{gathered} 650=400+10p \\ 650-400=10p \\ p=25 \\ \text{ Cost function is,} \\ C=25x+400 \end{gathered}[/tex]c) Fixed cost= $1000, 40 items cost $2000 .
[tex]\begin{gathered} 2000=1000+40p \\ p=25 \\ C=25x+1000 \end{gathered}[/tex]d) Fixed cost = $8500, 75 items cost $11,875.
[tex]\begin{gathered} 11875=8500+75p \\ 11875-8500=75p \\ p=45 \\ C=45x+8500 \end{gathered}[/tex]e) Marginal cost= $50, 80 items cost $4500.
In this case we know the value of m = 50 .
Use the slope point form,
[tex]\begin{gathered} y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\ (x_1,y_1)=(80,4500) \\ y-4500=50(x-80) \\ y=50x-4000+4500 \\ y=50x+500 \\ C=50x+500 \end{gathered}[/tex]f) Marginal cost=$120, 100 items cost $15,800.
[tex]\begin{gathered} y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\ (x_1,y_1)=(100,15800) \\ y-15800=120(x-100) \\ y=120x-12000+15800 \\ y=120x+3800 \\ C=120x+3800 \end{gathered}[/tex]g) Marginal cost= $90,150 items cost $16,000.
[tex]\begin{gathered} y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\ (x_1,y_1)=(150,16000) \\ y-16000=90(x-150) \\ y=90x-13500+16000 \\ y=90x+2500 \\ C=90x+2500 \end{gathered}[/tex]h) Marginal cost = $120, 700 items cost $96,500
[tex]\begin{gathered} y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\ (x_1,y_1)=(700,96500) \\ y-96500=120(x-700) \\ y=120x-84000+96500 \\ y=120x+12500 \\ C=120x+12500 \end{gathered}[/tex](h) through (5,0), y-intercepto 0
We first need to calculate the slope of the line.
m=(0-0)/(5-0)=0 since the slope is equal to zero we have that the line is horizontal.Then the equation is
[tex](y-0)=0(x-0)\Rightarrow y=0[/tex]the equation is y=0

you are running a fuel economy study. one of the cars you find where blue
Answer:
Explanation:
For Blue Car:
Distance = 33 & 1/2 miles
Gasoline = 1 & 1/4 gallons
For Red Car:
Distance = 22 & 2/5 miles
Gasoline = 4/5 gallon
To determine the rate unit rate for miles per gallon for each car, we use the following formula:
[tex]Unit\text{ Rate = }\frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Gasoline consumption}}[/tex]First, we find the unit rate for blue car:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{Unit Rate=}\frac{33\text{ }\frac{1}{2}\text{ miles}}{1\text{ }\frac{1}{4}\text{ gallons}} \\ \end{gathered}[/tex]Convert mixed numbers to improper fractions: 33 & 1/2 = 67/2 and 1 & 1/4 = 5/4
[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{Unit Rate = }\frac{\frac{67}{2}}{\frac{5}{4}} \\ \text{Simplify and rearrange:} \\ =\frac{67(4)}{2(5)} \\ \text{Calculate} \\ =\frac{134\text{ miles}}{5\text{ gallon}}\text{ } \\ or\text{ }26.8\text{ miles/gallon} \end{gathered}[/tex]Next, we find the unit rate for red car:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{Unit Rate = }\frac{22\frac{2}{5}}{\frac{4}{5}} \\ \text{Simplify and rearrange} \\ =\frac{\frac{112}{5}}{\frac{4}{5}} \\ =\frac{112(5)}{5(4)} \\ \text{Calculate} \\ =28\text{ miles/gallon} \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, the car that could travel the greater distance on 1 gallon of gasoline is the red car.

a. What is the distribution of ¯x? x¯ ~ N( , )
b. For the group of 15, find the probability that the average hand length is less than 191.
c. Find the first quartile for the average adult male hand length for this sample size.
d. For part b), is the assumption that the distribution is normal necessary? No Yes
Considering the normal distribution and the central limit theorem, it is found that:
a) The distribution is: x¯ ~ N(189, 1.91).
b) The probability that the average hand length is less than 191 is of 0.8531 = 85.31%.
c) The first quartile is of 187.7 mm.
d) The assumption is necessary, as the sample size is less than 30.
Normal Probability DistributionThe z-score of a measure X of a variable that has mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex] is given by the rule presented as follows:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
The z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure X is above or below the mean of the distribution, depending if the z-score is positive or negative.From the z-score table, the p-value associated with the z-score is found, and it represents the percentile of the measure X in the distribution.By the Central Limit Theorem, the sampling distribution of sample means of size n has standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]. The mean is the same as the population mean.For sample size less than 30, such as in this problem, the assumption of normality is needed to apply the Central Limit Theorem.The parameters in this problem are given as follows:
[tex]\mu = 189, \sigma = 7.4, n = 15, s = \frac{7.4}{\sqrt{15}} = 1.91[/tex]
Hence the sampling distribution of sample means is classified as follows:
x¯ ~ N(189, 1.91).
The probability that the average hand length is less than 191 is the p-value of Z when X = 191, hence:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
By the Central Limit Theorem:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
Z = (191 - 189)/1.91
Z = 1.05
Z = 1.05 has a p-value of 0.8531, which is the probability.
The first quartile of the distribution is X when Z has a p-value of 0.25, so X when Z = -0.675, hence:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
-0.675 = (X - 189)/1.91
X - 189 = -0.675 x 1.91
X = 187.7 mm.

[tex]\begin{gathered} \hat{p}=\frac{X}{n} \\ \hat{p}=\frac{45}{120}=0.375 \\ \text{where n=120, x=}45 \end{gathered}[/tex]STEP3
From the calculations, we have
[tex]\begin{gathered} Z_{\text{cal}}=2.34 \\ \text{Z}_{\text{los}}=0.05 \end{gathered}[/tex]We obtained the p-value has
[tex]\begin{gathered} p-\text{value}=0.0095 \\ \text{level of significance =0.05} \end{gathered}[/tex]STEP4
Since the p-value is less than the level of significance, we Reject the null hypothesis
STEP 5
Conclusion: There is no enought evidence to support the claim
What is the vertex of the parabola with thefunction rule f(x) = 5(x − 4)² + 9?
The equation f(x) = a(x - h)^2 + k gives the vertex of the parabola--it is (h, k).
In this question, h = 4 and k = 9. So the vertex is at (4, 9).
What is the y-intercept of the line x+2y=-14? (0,7) (-7,0) (0,-7) (2,14)
