what is the equation of the line that is parallel to the line y=2x+7 and passes through the point (-2,1)

1 answer:

8 0

The line is parallel so the slope is the same. So the slope = 2
Using a point-slope equation we have
y-y1 = 2(x-x1)
plug in the points
y-1 = 2(x-(-2))
=> y = 2x + 4 - 1
=> y = 2x +3

Answer:

The probability that Jones is lying is 6/7

Step-by-step explanation:

First we will list out 2 different cases when the outcome is a lie

1.probability that Jones tells lies is = 0.6 and probability that dalgiliesh analyses it correctly is 0.8

So the probability that dagliesh correctly analyses that he is telling lies is 0.8*0.6=0.48

2.Probability that Jones tells truth is 0.4 and if dagliesh analyses it incorrectly (which has a probability of 0.2) the outcome(as analysed by dagiliesh) is a lie

So probability that dagliesh analyses Jones truth as a lie is 0.2*.0.4=0.08

Total probability of outcome being a lie is 0.48+0.08=0.56

But we need the probability of Jones actually saying a lie which is nothing but 0.48/0.56= 6/7
