Hey!

So we are given that the line is parallel to the given line, meaning that they both have the same slope. The slope of the line we can then tell by just looking at the equation. It is the coefficient of x (since this is already in slope-intercept form) and that is 1/2.

Now that we know the slope we can find the y-intercept using both the slope and the point that we are given:

y = mx + b

-2 = (1/2)(-3) + b

-2 = -3/2 + b

-1/2 = b

Now that we have the y-intercept and the slope we can plug these into the equation to get our answer:

y = 1/2x - 1/2

Consider the game of rock-paper-scissors to be an experiment. In the long run, roommate A chooses rock 21% of the time, and room
coldgirl [10]

Answer:

0.3597 = 35.97% probability that roommate A wins the game and thus does not have to wash the dishes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Independent events:

If two events are independent, the probability of both happening is the multiplication of their probabilities.

Rock-paper-scissors rules:

A player that choose rocks beats one who chooses scissors.

A player that choose paper beats one who chooses rocks.

A player that choose scissors beats one who chooses paper.

Probability that roommate A wins the game and thus does not have to wash the dishes.

3 possible events:

Roommate A - Rocks(21% of the time) and Roommate B - Scissors(18% of the time)

So

p_R = 0.21*0.18 = 0.0378

Roommate A - Paper(39% of the time) and Roommate B - Rocks(61% of the time).

So

p_P = 0.39*0.61 = 0.2379

Roommate A - Scissors(40% of the time) and Roommate B - Paper(21% of the time).

So

p_S = 0.4*0.21 = 0.084

Probability of roommate A winning:

p = p_R + p_P + p_S = 0.0378 + 0.2379 + 0.084 = 0.3597

0.3597 = 35.97% probability that roommate A wins the game and thus does not have to wash the dishes.
