Answer:

Slope = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

$(3, -5 ) = (x_1,y_1) \\ (-7,5)=(x_2,y_2)$

$Slope = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Substitute values into the given equation

$slope \: = \frac{5 - ( - 5)}{ - 7 - 3} \\ \\ slope \: = \frac{5 + 5}{ - 7 - 3} \\ \\$

$slope \: = \frac{10}{ - 10} \\ slope \: = - 1$

A garden has 8 white roses and 11 red roses. One rose is plucked from the garden and then one more rose is plucked without repla

P(r/w) is the probability of picking a red rose at first picking and a white rose at second picking.
P(w/r) is the probability of picking a white rose at first picking and a red rose at second picking.

P(r/w) = $\frac{11}{19}$ × $\frac{8}{18}$ = $\frac{88}{342}$
P(w/r) = $\frac{8}{19}$ × $\frac{11}{18}$ = $\frac{88}{342}$

Notice that the second fraction is out of 18 because the second picking of rose will be out of 18 since the first rose is not replaced.

P(r/w) equals to P(w/r)
