The axis of symmetry of this equation is at -1.

We can determine this in any equation in vertex form just by looking at it. Firstly, start with the base form of vertex form.

y = (x - h)^2 + k

In this equation (h, k) is the vertex. Working by this fact, we know the vertex is (-1, 0). The axis of symmetry is always the x value of the vertex, which allows us to state the vertex at x = -1.

Find the equation of the line that is parallel to the given line and passes through the given point

Sati [7]

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{y=-\dfrac{1}{4}x-1\to x+4y=-4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\text{Let}\ k:y=m_1x+b_1;\ l:y=m_2x+b_2\\\\l\ ||\ k\iff m_1=m_2\\\\l\ \perp\ k\iff m_1m_2=-1\to m_2=-\dfrac{1}{m_1}\\==========================\\\\\text{We have}\ x+4y=-6.\\\text{Convert to the slope-intercept form:}\\\\x+4y=-6\qquad\text{subtract}\ x\ \text{from both sides}\\\\4y=-x-6\qquad\text{divide both sides by 4}\\\\y=\dfrac{-x}{4}-\dfrac{6}{4}\\\\y=-\dfrac{1}{4}x-\dfrac{3}{2}\to m_1=-\dfrac{1}{4}$

$\text{Lines are to be parallel. Therefore}\ m_2=-\dfrac{1}{4}.\\\\\text{We initially have the form equation}\ y=-\dfrac{1}{4}x+b.\\\\\text{The line passes through the point}\ (9,\ -3).\\\\\text{Substitute the coordinates of the point to the equation of a line:}\\\\x=9,\ y=-3\\\\-3=-\dfrac{1}{4}(9)+b\\\\-3=-\dfrac{9}{4}+b\qquad\text{add}\ \dfrac{9}{4}\ \text{to both sides}\\\\-\dfrac{12}{4}+\dfrac{9}{4}=b\to b=-\dfrac{3}{4}$

$x=8,\ y=-3\\\\-3=-\dfrac{1}{4}(8)+b\\\\-3=-2+b\qquad\text{add 2 to both sides}\\\\-1=b\to b=-1$

$\text{Therefore the equation is:}\ y=-\dfrac{1}{4}x-1.\\\\\text{Convert to the standard form}\ Ax+By=C:\\\\y=-\dfrac{1}{4}x-1\qquad\text{multiply both sides by 4}\\\\4y=-x-4\qquad\text{add}\ x\ \text{to both sides}\\\\x+4y=-4$

1. A bag contains the letters of the word “PROBABILITY”.

Mama L [17]

Since "PROBABILITY" has 11 letters in it, then every letter has 1/11 chances of getting picked, so the chances of getting an O tile would be 1/11, same for getting a B tile. But if you were to get both of them consecutively, then the chances would be 1/11 of 1/11 because you have 1/11 of a chance to get and O and then 1/11 of a chance to get a B. So you would be looking for 1/11 of 1/11, which means multiplying the divisor, 11*11=121. Therefore, you should have 1/121 chance of getting an O and B tile.

Help me plz uevdhdb FM xb

Sati [7]

Answer:

a 1/ (6^2)

Step-by-step explanation:

6^3 / 6^6

when dividing exponents we can subtract

6^ (3-6)

6^(-3)

negative exponents go from the numerator to the denominator

1/ (6^3) = 1/216 = 6^-3

1/6^2 is not equal
