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

1. A weighted coin is biased so that a head is twice as likely to occur as a tail. If the coin is tossed 4 times, what is the pr
ohaa [14]

Answer:

80/81

Step-by-step explanation:

If a head is twice as likely to occur as a tail, then the probability of getting heads is 2/3 and the probability of getting tails is 1/3.

The probability of getting at least 1 head involves 4 scenarios:

1) 1 Head and 3 Tails

2) 2 Heads and 2 Tails

3) 3 Heads and 1 Tail

4) 4 Heads

Instead of calculate all these scenarios, you could calculate the opposite scenario: 4 Tails. The sum of all possible scenarios is 1, so:

P(at least one head) + P(no heads) = 1

Then, P(at least one head) = 1 - P(no heads)

The probability of 4 tails is:

P(no heads) = P(TTTT) = (1/3)(1/3)(1/3)(1/3)=1/81

Then, P(at least one head) = 1 - 1/81=80/81
