Answer: 9/10 probability

Step-by-step explanation:

What you're trying to figure out is how likely the pants you select to not be white. The formula for this sort of thing is:

(How many things fit the probability you're looking for)/(However may there are of the thing total)

Because 9 of the clothes are not white, and would therefore fit the probability you're looking for, you would put 9 at the top (4 blue, 2 black, 3 tan)

Lastly, add all the clothes up total and put that number on the bottom (4 + 2 + 1 + 3 = 10)

Therefore, the answer is 9/10

Write an equation of a line perpendicular to y=4x-3 that contains the point (0,7)
ExtremeBDS [4]

Let k:y=m_1x+b_1 and l:y=m_2x+b_2

l\ \perp\ k\iff m_1m_2=-1\to m_2=-\dfrac{1}{m_1}

We have

y=4x-3\to m_1=4

Therefore

m_2=-\dfrac{1}{4}

We have the equation of a line:

y=-\dfrac{1}{4}x+b

Put the coordinates of the point (0, 7) to the equation of a line:

7=-\dfrac{1}{4}(0)+b\\\\\7=b\to b=7

Answer: \boxed{y=-\dfrac{1}{4}x+7}
