There are 7 books all in all. Since the order is important, there are 7P2 (permutation of 7 taken 2) ways in which Tena can do the repost. If she picks historical books first then followed by the science-fiction, there are
                                        3 x 4 = 12 ways. 
The probability is therefore equal to 12/(7P2) which is equal to 2/7. The answer is letter c.

find an equation for the perpendicular bisector of the line segment whose endpoints are (-8,-5) and (-4,1)
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

y = -x - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Midpoint of the line:

x = (x1 + x2)/2 = (-8 + -4)/2 = -12/2 = -6

y = (y1 + y2)/2 = (-5 + 1)/2 = -4/2 = -2

so midpoint is (-6,-2)

Slope of the line: Slope m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (-1 - -5)/(-4 - -8) = (-1 + 5)/(-4 + 8) = 4/4 = 1

Perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals of one another

so slope of the perpendicular line is -1/1 is -1

y = mx + b

y = -x + b

Using (-6,-2)

-2 = -(-6) + b

-2 = 6 + b

b = -8

so y = -x - 8

Find the value of the logarithm Log 182 round answer to the nearest thousandth
Tresset [83]

log(182)=log(2*7*13)

As, log(m*n)=log(m)+log(n)

log(2*7*13)=log(2)+log(7)+log(13)

=0.301029+0.845098+1.13943

=2.26007

=2.260(approximate)
