Answer:
y=-1/4x+5
Step-by-step explanation:
perpendicular lines have slopes that multiply to -1.
Our given line:
y=4x-5
the slope (m) in it is 4. To find the slope of the perpendicular line:
4m=-1
divide by 4
m=-1/4
the slope of the new line is -1/4
here's our equation so far:
y=-1/4x+b
Since the line will pass through the point (-4,6) we can use it to solve for b (y intercept)
so substitute (-4,6) into the equation
6=-1/4(-4)+b
6=1+b
5=b
the y intercept is 5
so our equation is:
y=-1/4x+5
hope this helps! :D
Answer:
The value that represents the 90th percentile of scores is 678.
Step-by-step explanation:
Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean 
and standard deviation 
, the zscore of a measure X is given by:
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
In this problem, we have that:
Find the value that represents the 90th percentile of scores.
This is the value of X when Z has a pvalue of 0.9. So X when Z = 1.28.
The value that represents the 90th percentile of scores is 678.

Answer:
A rectangle is defined by its length = L, and its width = W.
So the perimeter of the of the rectangle can be written as:
Perimeter = 2*L + 2*W.
In this case, we want to leave the perimeter fixed, so we have:
24ft = 2*L + 2*W.
Now, we do not have any other restrictions, so to know the different dimensions now we can write this as a function, by isolating one of the variables.
2*L = 24ft - 2*W
L = 12ft - W.
or:
L(W) = 12ft - W.
Such that:
W must be greater than zero (because we can not have negative or zero width).
And W must be smaller than 12ft (because in that case we would have zero or negative length)
Then the possible different dimensions are given by:
L(W) = 12ft - W
0ft < W < 12ft.
