The correct answer is option D. Detailed explanation: As per the attached image. Observing the image, the coordinates are outlined. To determine the reflection of a point across a line, the distances from the points to the line must be equal. Point A(1,1) sits on the line x = 1, meaning its reflection A' remains at A'(1,1). Point C(2,5) is a distance of 1 from x = 1 on the right, hence its reflected position C' shifts left by the same distance — subtracting 1 from its x-coordinate places it at C'(1 - 1, 5) or C'(0, 5). Point B(4,1) is positioned 3 from x = 1 on the right; therefore, its reflection B' would also move left by 3 – leading to B'(1 - 3, 1) or B'(-2, 1). Plotting A', B', and C' confirms option D as the correct choice.

Match each pair of points to the equation of the line that is parallel to the line passing through the points.

Svet_ta [12734]

It's known that

When two lines are parallel, their slopes are identical.

The slope between any two points can be calculated using the following formula:

$m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

We will calculate the slope for each case to find the solution to the problem.

Case A) Point $B(5,2)\ C(7,-5)$

Determine the slope of BC

Insert the values into the formula:

$m=\frac{-5-2}{7-5}$

$m=\frac{-7}{2}$

$m=-3.5$

Thus,

The equation $y=-3.5x-15$ is parallel to the line that goes through the points $B(5,2)\ C(7,-5)$

Therefore,

the result for Part A) is

$B(5,2)\ C(7,-5)$ ------> $y=-3.5x-15$

Case B) Point $D(11,6)\ E(5,9)$

Calculate the slope of DE

Plug the values into the formula:

$m=\frac{9-6}{5-11}$

$m=\frac{3}{-6}$

$m=-0.5$

Thus,

The equation $y=-0.5x-3$ is parallel to the line that goes through the points $D(11,6)\ E(5,9)$

Therefore,

the result for Part B) is

$D(11,6)\ E(5,9)$ ------> $y=-0.5x-3$

Case C) Point $F(-7,12)\ G(3,-8)$

Determine the slope of FG

Insert the values into the formula:

$m=\frac{-8-12}{3+7}$

$m=\frac{-20}{10}$

$m=-2$

Thus,

Any linear equation with slope $m=-2$ will be parallel to the line through the points $F(-7,12)\ G(3,-8)$

Case D) Point $H(4,4)\ I(8,9)$

Calculate the slope of HI

Substitute the values in the formula:

$m=\frac{9-4}{8-4}$

$m=\frac{5}{4}$

$m=1.25$

Thus,

The equation $y=1.25x+4$ is parallel to the line through the points $H(4,4)\ I(8,9)$

Therefore,

the result for Part D) is

$H(4,4)\ I(8,9)$ ------> $y=1.25x+4$

Case E) Point $J(7,2)\ K(-9,8)$

Determine the slope of JK

Insert the values into the formula:

$m=\frac{8-2}{-9-7}$

$m=\frac{6}{-16}$

$m=-0.375$

Thus,

Any linear equation characterized by slope $m=-0.375$ will be parallel to the line that runs through the points $J(7,2)\ K(-9,8)$

Case F) Point $L(5,-7)\ M(4,-12)$

Find the slope of LM

Substitute the values in the formula:

$m=\frac{-12+7}{4-5}$

$m=\frac{-5}{-1}$

$m=5$

Thus,

The equation $y=5x+19$ is parallel to the line connecting the points $L(5,-7)\ M(4,-12)$

Therefore,

the result for Part F) is

$L(5,-7)\ M(4,-12)$ ------> $y=5x+19$

The line width of a tool used for semiconductor manufacturing is assumed to be normally distributed with a mean of 0.5 micromete

zzz [12365]

Answer:

a. 0.82%

b. 71.11%

c. 0.564 micrometer

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the z value for each measurement, we must calculate and determine the percentage they correspond to, and the difference will give us the percentage between those two statistics.

The equation for z is:

z = (x - m) / (sd)

Here, x is the value being evaluated, m denotes the mean, and sd represents the standard deviation.

For 0.62 copies, we calculate:

z = (0.62 - 0.5) / (0.05)

z = 2.4

This translates to 0.9918.

Therefore, p (x > 0.62) = 1 - 0.9918

p (x > 0.62) = 0.0082 = 0.82%

For 0.47 copies, we have:

z = (0.47 - 0.5) / (0.05)

z = -0.6, which equates to 0.2742.

For 0.63 copies:

z = (0.63 - 0.5) / (0.05)

z = -2.6, which yields 0.9953.

Hence, p (0.47 > x > 0.63) = 0.9953 - 0.2742

p (0.47 > x > 0.63) = 0.7211 = 72.11 %

For x copies, we find:

p = 0.9 corresponds to z = 1.28.

Thus, 1.28 = (x - 0.5) / (0.05)

From which we derive:

x = 1.28*0.05 + 0.5

x = 0.564 micrometer
