Write the equation of a line that is parallel to y=-0.75x and that passes through the point (8,0)

So for a linear line to be parallel to another line, they have to have the same slopes.  The given line has a slope of -.75

If we use the point slope formula, which is y - y1 = m( x - x1 ) we can plug in the slope and the point that the line must go through to get the new line.

y - 0 = -.75( x - 8 )

y = -0.75x + 6

The equation of the line that is parallel to y = -0.75x and passes through (8,0) is

y = -0.75x + 6

Answer:

Probability that detector B goes off is '0.615'

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

1) Probability that detector A goes off and detector B does not go off is 0.25.

2)Probability that detector A does not go off is 0.35.

3)Probability that detector A  goes off is (1-0.35)=0.65

Assuming that

Probability that detector B goes off is 'p' Hence the probability that detector B does not goes off  is (1-p)

Thus the probability that detector A goes off and detector B does not go off is  product of the individual probabilities

P(E)=0.65\times (1-p)\\\\0.65\times (1-p)=0.25\\\\0.65-0.65p=0.25\\\\0.65-0.25=0.65p\\\\\therefore p=\frac{0.40}{0.65}=0.615

Probability that detector B goes off is '0.615'
