What is the slope of a line perpendicular to the line whose equation is 3x-7y+14=0?

tatyana61 [14]

1. Find the slope of the given line. Do this by solving <span>3x-7y+14=0 for m:

3x + 14 = 7y, which gives us m = 3/7.

2. Find the slope of a line perpendicular to this one. It's the negative reciprocal of m = 3/7, or -7/3.

Sati [7]

Answer: the percent of the students at this university are foreign = 30%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Probability that college students are foreign students who also smoke: P(S|F)=0.12

Probability that foreign college students smoke P(S∩F)=0.4

The probability that the students at this university are foreign :

$P(F)=\dfrac{P(S\cap F)}{P(S|F)}$ [By conditional probability formula]

$=\dfrac{0.12}{0.4}\\\\=0.3$

Hence, the percent of the students at this university are foreign = 30%
