Just make m the subject m=fa
The two lines are neither
This is because in order for two lines to be considered parallel, they must have the same slope/ gradient. And none of our equations have the same slope/gradient
Whereas, in order for two lines to be considered perpendicular, their slopes/gradient must multiply together to give -1. And if we multiply the gradients of our equations, we do not get negative one
In first question x=8, I’m too lazy to solve the rest
The amount of passwords possible is:

Since he only tries once for the first try we get:

Thus there is a:

Chance he will guess the password on his first try.
given,
f(x)=(1/2)x-3
g(x)=2x+6
Now,
f(4)=(1/2)×4-3
=2-3=-1
g(4)=2×4+6=14
Then,
f(g(4))=f(14)=(1/2)×14-3=7-3=4
g(f(4))=g(-1)=2×(-1)+6=-2+6=4
