Let's convert the equation into slope-intercept form.

3x + 18y = 4
Subtract 3x from both sides.
18y= -3x + 4
Divide both sides by 18.
y = -3/18x + 4/18
Simplify.
y = -1/6x + 2/9

To make a line perpendicular, we need the slope to be the reciprocal of the other. Flip the denominator and numerator, and change the sign. We also have to change the b to make the line go through (-2, 1)

-1/6 to +6/1, or 6.

y = 6x + b

Input the x and y values and solve for b.

1 = 6(-2) + b
1 = -12 + b
Add 12 to both sides.
13 = b

y = 6x + 13

A supplier delivers an order for 20 electric toothbrushes to a store. by accident, three of the electric toothbrushes are defect
evablogger [386]
<span>3 of the 20 toothbrushes are defective, so the initial probability of selecting a defective toothbrush on the first try is 3/20. After that, there will be 2 defective toothbrushes in the remaining 19, so the probability of selecting one of those on the 2nd try will be 2/19. To get the probability of those two events happening sequentially, we multiply the two probabilities. Thus (3/20)*(2/19) = 6/380 = 0.0157, or about 1.6%.</span>

A bag contains 10 tiles with the letters A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, and J. Five tiles are chosen, one at a time, and placed in a
lora16 [44]
I assume in this item, we are to find at which step is the mistake done for the calculation of the unknown probability. 

For the possible number of arrangement of letter, n(S), the basic principles of counting should be used.
                       = 10 x 9 x 8 x 7 x 6 = 30,240

This is similar as to what was done in Meghan's work.

For the five tiles to spell out FACED, there is only one (1) possibility.

Therefore, the probability should be equal to 1/30,240 instead of the 1/252 which was presented in the steps above.
