U have a slope of 5/4...a perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope...which means, the slope we need is -4/5.

Now we use y = mx + b
slope(m) = -4/5
(8,-7)
-7 = -4/5(8) + b
-7 = -32/5 + b
-7 + 32/5 = b
-35/5 + 32/5 = b
-3/5 = b

equation is : y = -4/5x - 3/5.....4x + 5y = -3

4x + 5y = -3....when x = 3
4(3) + 5y = -3
12 + 5y = -3
5y = -3-12
5y = - 15
y = -15/5
y = - 3 <===

Max tosses a Fair coin 3 times what is the probability of getting heads in the first two trials and Tails in the last trial
Gennadij [26K]
.5 * .5 *.5 = 1/8 
-
-
the probability to have head is .5 so the probability of tails 1-.5 
-
then the first time is head  
the second time is head 
the third time is tail 
so 
.5 * .5 *.5 = 1/8

How would I solve y=5x-2 &amp; -14x+y=16 in a substitution equation
Aleks04 [339]
You would substitute the given value of “y” into the equation of -14x+y=16
-14x+5x-2=16

Then you would solve for “x”
x=2

You would then substitute the value of “x” into the equation to solve for “y”
y=5(2)-2

Which would then give you a value for “y”
y=12
So the answer is (2,12)

What relations are functions
Inessa05 [86]

The requirement is that every element in the domain must be connected to one - and one only - element in the codomain.


A classic visualization consists of two sets, filled with dots. Each dot in the domain must be the start of an arrow, pointing to a dot in the codomain.


So, the two things can't can't happen is that you don't have any arrow starting from a point in the domain, i.e. the function is not defined for that element, or that multiple arrows start from the same points.


But as long as an arrow start from each element in the domain, you have a function. It may happen that two different arrow point to the same element in the codomain - that's ok, the relation is still a function, but it's not injective; or it can happen that some points in the codomain aren't pointed by any arrow - you still have a function, except it's not surjective.
