If you multiply me by 7, subtract 2 and then divide by 6, you get 9. What number am I ?

1 answer:

6 0

The answer would be 8, because when you multiply 7 times 8 you get 56 then you subtract 2 and get 54 you then divide it by 6 and get 9.... I got this by doing the contrary of each number for example it said that dividing it by 6 would give you 9 so I multiplied 9 times 6 and got 64, then it said to subtract 2 so I added it instead and got 56, and then it said multiply by 7 so I divided by 7 and got 8. when I did the procedure again but with the right order I got 9 at the end...

This means that you would be the number 8

hope this helps

wariber [46]

Answer:

P( B | A) will actually be the probability of the polygraph test being wrong.

Step-by-step explanation:

The event A represents the event that the subject is telling the truth.

The event B represents the event when he fails the polygraph test, which is indicative of the fact that he is lying.

The notation P( B | A) describes the probability that the subject fails the polygraph test given that he is actually telling the truth.

So in retrospect P( B | A) will actually be the probability of the polygraph test being wrong.

Is it parallel or is it perpendicular?

zavuch27 [327]

It is parallel, which means that the new line should have the same slope of the given line $y=-5/4 x+7$
and the slope is the coefficient of x
so the slope = -5/4
in order to solve this problem we have to know the equation of the slop
$slope= \frac{y-y1}{x-x1}$
where (x1,y1) is the point by which the new line passes through

$\frac{-5}{4}=\frac{y-(-4)}{x-1}$
$\frac{-5}{4}= \frac{y+4}{x-1}$
-5(x-1)=4(y+4)
-5x +5=4y+16 (by subtracting 16 from both sides)
-5x -11= 4y (divide both sides by 4)
y= $\frac{-5}{4}x - \frac{11}{4}$
