Answer:

Option (C) is correct .
Step-by-step explanation:
As the expression given in the question as follows.

Now rationalize the expression.

Using the formula
a² - b² = (a - b) (a + b)
Using in the above


As i² = -1



Option (C) is correct .
Answer:
The probability that the pirate misses the captain's ship but the captain hits = 0.514
Step-by-step explanation:
Let A be the event that the captain hits the pirate ship
The probability of the captain hitting the pirate ship, P(A) = 3/5
Let B be the event that the pirate hits the captain's ship
The probability of the pirate hitting the captain's ship P(B) = 1/7
The probability of the pirate missing the captain's ship, P'(B) = 1 - P(B)
P'(B) = 1 - 1/7 = 6/7
The probability that the pirate misses the captain's ship but the captain hits = P(A) * P(B) = 3/5 * 6/7
= 0.514
Step-by-step explanation:
slope interception formula is
y-y1=m(x-x1)
where m is m=y-y1/x-x1 in this case m=-2 because the line we are trying to find is parallel to the given one y=-2x-6 where slope k=-2
so the final equation would be
y-1=-2(x-(-4))
y-1=-2x-2*4
y=-2x-8+1=-2x-7
