Answer:

3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, we need to calculate the slope of the line shown. This can be computed as:

m=\frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x}

where

\Delta y = y_2-y_1 is the increment along the y-direction

\Delta x = x_2 - x_1 is the increment along the x-direction

We can choose the following two points to calculate the slope of the line shown:

(-3,2) and (0,-2)

And so, the slope of the line shown is

m=\frac{-2-(2)}{0-(-3)}=-\frac{4}{3}

Two lines are said to be perpendicular if the slope of the first line is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the second line:

m_2 = -\frac{1}{m_1}

Using m_1 = -\frac{4}{3}, we find that a line perpendicular to the line shown should have a slope of

m_2 = -\frac{1}{-4/3}=3/4

Stacy uses a spinner with six equal sections numbered 2, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 to play a game. Write a probability model for this ex
allsm [11]

Answer:

We estimate to have 8.33 times the number 6 in 50 trials.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us consider a success to get a 6. In this case, note that the probability of having a 6 in one spin is 1/6. We can consider the number of 6's in 50 spins to be a binomial random variable. Then, let X to be the number of trials we get a 6 out of 50 trials. Then, we have the following model.

P(X=k) = \binom{50}{k}(\frac{1}{6})^k(\frac{5}{6})^{50-k}

We will estimate the number of times that she spins a 6 as the expected value of this random variable.

Recall that if we have X as a binomial random variable of n trials with a probability of success of p, then it's expected value is np.

Then , in this case, with n=50 and p=1/6 we expect to have \frac{50}{6} number of times of having a 6, which is 8.33.

Answer:

  456,976,000

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of possibilities is the product of the number of possibilities in each of the character positions:

  10 · 10 · 10 · 26 · 26 · 26 · 26

  = 10^3 · 26^4 = 456,976,000
