The slope of a line perpendicular to another line has a
slope which is the negative reciprocal of that line or:
m1 = -1/m2
First, we convert the given equation into slope-intercept
form of a line: y = mx + b
8x + 15y = 12
15y = -8x + 12
y = (-8/15) x + 0.8
m1 = -8 / 15
Therefore the slope of the perpendicular line is:
m2 = 15 / 8
Since the perpendicular line crosses the point (11, 17), therefore
using the slope formula:
m = (y2 – y1) / (x2 – x1)
15 / 8 = (y2 – 17) / (x2 – 11)
1.875 (x2 – 11) = y2 – 17
1.875 x2 – 20.625 = y2 – 17
y2 = 1.875 x2 – 3.625
y = (15/8) x – 3.625
multiplying both sides by 8:
8y = 15x – 29
rewriting in standard form:

The possibilities of an even number are 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, and 16 .
The possibilities of an odd prime are 3, 5, 7, 11, and 13.
8 even numbers + 5 odd primes = 13 possibilities of success
out of 16 total possible outcomes.
Probability of success = 13/16 = 0.8125 = 81.25% .
Rounded to the nearest thousandth, it's 0.813 .
