Answer:

0.014%

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the probability that she chooses that exact songs for the piano recital, you just first calculate the probability of her choosing one of them:

Probability of 1=\frac{1}{20}=.05

This is 5%, now you multipy this with the probability of the second song after this one, since there is one less song, the total number of outcomes should be reduced to 19:

Probability of 2nd=(.05)(\frac{1}{19}

Probability of 2nd=(0.05)(0.052}

Probability of 2nd=0.002

This would be .26%

To calculate the probability of the third song being chosen after the first two, we have 2 less outcomes possibles, so the total number of possibilities now is reduced to 18.

Probability of 3rd=(.0026)(\frac{1}{18}

Probability of 3rd=(.0026)(0.055)

Probability of 3rd=0.00014

The probability of Noam choosing the three songs would be: 0.014%

|\Omega|={_{20}C_3}=\dfrac{20!}{3!17!}=\dfrac{18\cdot19\cdot20}{2\cdot3}=1140\\|A|=1\\\\P(A)=\dfrac{1}{1140}\approx0.09\%

How do i find the shorted distance between the point and the line
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 4y = 8

4y = -3x+8

y = -3/4+2

The shortest distance between a point and a line is the perpendicular line.

Slope of the perpendicular line: 4/3 and point (-3,-2)

b = -2-(4/3)(-3) = 2

Equation of the perpendicular line: y=4/3x+2

y is equal y

4/3x+2= -3/4x+2

4/3x +3/4x = 2-2

x = 0

Plug x=0 into one of the equations to find y

y = 4/3(0) + 2

y = 2

(0,2) and (-3,-2)

Distance = sqrt [(-3-0)^2 + (-2-2)^2]

Sqrt (-3)^2+ (-4)^2

Sqrt 25 = 5
