P(Failure on first try) = 11/12
P(Failure on second try) = 10/11
P(Failure on third try)= 9/10
P(success on fourth try) = 1/9

P(success exactly on fourth try) = 11/12*10/11*9/10*1/9 = 1/12

What is the equation of a vertical line through the point (3, 2)?
dsp73

Answer:

If you consider what the slope looks like for a vertical line, it is an infinite slope. What that means is that you cannot have a y-value in your equation:

x = 3

This x-value would be a vertical line that passes through all y-values for x = 3. So you can replace them in (3, y) with any value, and it will be included in the linear equation x = 3.
