Answer:

1/12

Step-by-step explanation:

P( coin = heads) = number of heads / total = 1/2

P( cube = 5) = number of 5's / total =1/6

P( heads, 5) =1/2 * 1/6 = 1/12

The coin toss and the number cube roll are independent events.

This is because the result of the coin toss does

not affect the result of the number cube roll.

To find the probability of two independent events, we first find the probability of each event, then we multiply the probabilities.

Since there is only one way to get heads when tossing a coin and there are 2 possible outcomes, tossing a heads or tails, the probability of getting heads is 1/2.

Since there is only one way to roll 5 on a number cube, there

is 1 favorable outcome but six possible outcomes.

So the probability of rolling a 5 is 1/6.

Now multiply.

So we have 1/2 · 1/6 which is 1/12.

Consider the line y = 2x–4.
choli [55]

Parallel slope = 2

This is because the original line has slope 2. Parallel lines have equal slopes.

--------------------------

Perpendicular slope = -1/2

The original slope 2 or 2/1 turns into -1/2 after flipping the fraction and the sign. Note the original slope and perpendicular slope multiply to -1. This is true for any pair of perpendicular lines where neither line is vertical.
