This is called independent probability. Just because the first two kids are girls does not change the probability of the next childs gender. 
So it is 1/2 or 50%. 
The chance of all three kids being girls is the same as tossing a coin thrice and having heads all 3 times. Thus it is 1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2 = 1/8

One line passes through the points \blueD{(-3,-1)}(−3,−1)start color #11accd, (, minus, 3, comma, minus, 1, ), end color #11accd
mart [117]

Answer:

The lines are perpendicular

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two lines are parallel, then their slopes are the same

If two lines are perpendicular, then their slopes are opposite reciprocal (the product of their slopes is equal to -1)

Remember that

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

<em>Find the slope of the first line</em>

we have the points

(-3,-1) and (1,-9)

substitute in the formula

m_1=\frac{-9+1}{1+3}

m_1=\frac{-8}{4}

m_1=-2

<em>Find the slope of the second line</em>

we have the points

(1,4) and (5,6)

substitute in the formula

m_2=\frac{6-4}{5-1}

m_2=\frac{2}{4}

Simplify

m_2=\frac{1}{2}

<em>Compare the slopes</em>

m_1=-2

m_2=\frac{1}{2}

Find out the product

m_1*m_2=(-2)(\frac{1}{2})=-1

therefore

The lines are perpendicular

The profit function of a manufacturer, in dollars, when x units of a certain commodity are produced and sold is given by
Annette [7]

Answer:

Derivative: P’(x) = 200 - 2x

If P’(x) = 0 , x = 100

Therefore P’ is positive and P increases until x = 100

So the maximum units to maximize profits is 100 units

And for 100 units the profit in dollar is:

20000 - 10000 = 10000

10000 dollars
