Using the concept of probability and the arrangements formula, there is a
0.002 = 0.2% probability that the first 8 people in line are teachers.
----------------------------------
- A probability is the <u>number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.</u>
- The order in which they are positioned is important, and all people will be positioned, and thus, the arrangements formula is used to find the number of outcomes.
The number of possible arrangements from a set of n elements is given by:
----------------------------------
The desired outcomes are:
- First 8 people are teachers, in <u>8! possible ways.</u>
- Last 4 are students, in <u>4! possible ways.</u>
Thus,
----------------------------------
For the total outcomes, <u>number of arrangements of 12 people</u>, thus:
The probability is:
0.002 = 0.2% probability that the first 8 people in line are teachers.

We determine line m as follows:
*First, by theorem we have the following:
Here m1 & m2 are the slopes of two perpendicular lines. For all lines that are perpendicular that is true, so we calculate the slope of line m using the slope of the function given [Which has a slope of 7/4]:
So, the slope of line m is -4/7. Now, using this slope and the point (-1, 4) we replace in the following expression:
Here x1, y1 & m1 are the x-component of the point, the y-component of the point, and the slope of the line respectively, so we replace and solve for y:
And that last function of y is the line m.
