Find the equation of the line that is parallel to the graph of 2x-7y=8 and passes through (-1,-1)

Solve for y
-7y = -2x + 8
y = (2/7)x - 8/7

A parallel line has the same slope as the given line. The slope of the given line is (2/7)

y = (2/7) x + b Now we have to find b using (-1,-1). When x = - 1 so does y
-1 = ( 2/7)*(-1) + b
-1 + 2/7 = b
b = - 5/7

The line is
y = (2/7)x - 5/7

A card is drawn at random from a standard deck of 52 cards. Find the following conditional probabilities. a) The card is a diam

Inga [223]

Answer:

$a.\frac{1}{13}\\b.\frac{1}{2}\\c.\frac{1}{13}\\d.\frac{1}{13}$

Step-by-step explanation:

P(A|B) = P(A and B) / P(B)

Total number of cards = 52

a)

Let A denotes the event that the card is a diamond and B denotes the card is red.

$P\left ( A|B \right )=\frac{P\left ( A\cap B \right )}{P(B)}\\=\frac{\frac{2}{52}}{\frac{26}{52}}\\=\frac{1}{13}$

b)

Let A denotes the event that the card is red and B denotes the card is diamond.

$P\left ( A|B \right )=\frac{P\left ( A\cap B \right )}{P(B)}=\frac{\frac{2}{52}}{\frac{4}{52}}\\=\frac{1}{2}$

c)

Let A denotes the event that the card is nine and B denotes the card is red.

$P\left ( A|B \right )=\frac{P\left ( A\cap B \right )}{P(B)}=\frac{\frac{2}{52}}{\frac{26}{52}}\\=\frac{1}{13}$

d)

Let A denotes the event that the card is a king and B denotes the card is a face card.

$P\left ( A|B \right )=\frac{P\left ( A\cap B \right )}{P(B)}=\frac{\frac{4}{52}}{\frac{12}{52}}\\=\frac{1}{13}$

Dunya randomly chooses a number from 1 to 10. What is the probability she

kumpel [21]

Answer: 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The numbers that are less than 6 are 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. Thus simply means that there are 5 numbers that are less than 6.

The probability that she chooses a number less than 6 will then be:

= 5/10

= 1/2
