Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:   from the equation,  x-y=8,  make  y the subject of the formulae , this gives - y=  -x +8

divide all through by (-) sign, this gives   y= x - 8

from the last equation above, the slope is the coefficient of x which is 1. since it is perpendicula, the answer is -1

by co efficient, we mean the number multiplying the unknown

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Rearrange x - y = 8 into this form by subtracting x from both sides

- y = - x + 8 ( multiply through by - 1 )

y = x - 8 ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = 1

Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

m_{perpendicular} = - \frac{1}{m} = -  \frac{1}{1} = - 1 → D

AND means multiply, so if probability is dependent on two things happening, then we will multiply the individual probabilities together.

1. P(A and 1) = 1/4 x 1/6 = 1/24

2. P(C and 2) = 1/4 x 2/6 = 2/24 = 1/12

3. P(B and 3) = 2/4 x 1/6 = 2/24 = 1/12

4. P(A and 4) = 1/4 x 2/6 = 2/24 = 1/12

5. P(C and 3) = 1/4 x 1/6 = 1/24

6. P(B and 2) = 2/4 x 2/6 = 4/24 = 1/6

7. P(a consonant and an odd #) = 3/4 x 2/6 = 6/24 = 1/4

8. P(a consonant and a prime #) = 3/4 x 3/6 = 9/24 = 3/8

9. P(a vowel and a 5) = 1/4 x 0/6 = 0

10. P(a vowel and a number less than 3) = 1/4 x 3/6 = 3/24 = 1/8

11. P(B and 1) = 2/4 x 1/6 = 2/24 = 1/12

Experimental probability is based on something that has already happened, or data that has already been collected.

12. P(1) = 3/30 = 1/10

13. P(2) = 8/30 = 4/15

14. P(3) = 7/30

15. P(4) = 5/30 = 1/6

16. P(5) = 3/30 = 1/10

17. P(6) = 4/30 = 2/15

Hope this helps!

Which expression is equivalent to (–3y – x) – (5y – 8x)? –8y – 8x –8y 7x 2y – 7x 8y 8x.
IRINA_888 [86]

The expression is equivalent to -8y + 7x.

Given

Expression; (-3y - x) - (5y - 8x)

<h3>How to find the equivalent expression?</h3>

To find the equivalent expression multiply the expression and add and simplify.

Then,

The expression is equivalent to;

 (-3y - x) - (5y - 8x)

-3y - x - 5y + 8x

-8y + 7x

Hence, the expression is equivalent to -8y + 7x.
