What is the slope of a line that is parallel to the line represented by the equation 3x+4y=12?

Slope-intercept form is:

y = mx + b

"m" is the slope, "b" is the y-intercept (the y value when x = 0)

(there is probably another way to do this, but I will be doing it this way)


Isolate the "y" in the equation

3x + 4y = 12       Subtract 3x on both sides

4y = 12 - 3x        Divide 4 on both sides

y=3-\frac{3}{4}x  or   y=-\frac{3}{4} x+3   The slope is -3/4


For lines to be parallel, they have to have the SAME slope. The given line's slope is -3/4, so the slope of the parallel line is also -\frac{3}{4}

10. The probability of buying pizza for dinner is 34% and the probability of buying
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

The probability of eating pizza given that a new car is bought is 0.952

Step-by-step explanation:

This kind of problem can be solved using Baye’s theorem of conditional probability.

Let A be the event of eating pizza( same as buying pizza)

while B is the event of buying a new car

P(A) = 34% = 0.34

P(B) = 15% = 15/100 = 0.15

P(B|A) = 42% = 0.42

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

0.42 = P(BnA)/0.34

P(B n A) = 0.34 * 0.42 = 0.1428

Now, we want to calculate P(A|B)

Mathematically;

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

Kindly know that P(A n B) = P(B n A) = 0.1428

So P(A|B) = 0.1428/0.15

P(A|B) = 0.952
