Answer:

<u>The correct answer is B. 1/729</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Probability of any of the nine words would be randomly cited.

Using the Laplace Rule, we calculate that probability is 1/9

2. Now let's calculate the probability of any two - word phrase in specific order from those nine in the dictionary. We should remember that the probability of occurrence of two or more statistically independent events is equal to the product of their individual probabilities. So,

1/9 * 1/9 = 1/81

3. Using the same Multiplication Rule, we can calculate the probability of a random generation of the phrase "three blind mice", in that specific order. Because there are other phrases that could be generated with those three words, but in different order.  The question was specific about the order.

1/9 * 1/9 * 1/9 = 1/729

<u>The probability of randomly generating the phrase "three blind mice" is 1/729 or 0.137%</u>

If Heidi only gets paid when she is talking to clients, she will be working

per day.

Her $2.00 difference in pay per hour will result in a difference in pay per day of

... $2.00/h × 6 h/day = $12/day

Company B will pay Heidi $12 more for a day's work.

Answer:

2x + 3y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form:

Ax + By = C

So from the given form, arrange it to the standard form.

First, simplify the form by distribution.

y + 6 = -2/3(x - 11)

y + 6 = -2/3x + 22/3

Next, you make the fractions into whole by multiplying both sides by 3(this would eliminate all fractions).

(3)y + 3(6) = 3(-2/3x) + 3(22/3)

3y + 18 = -2x + 22

Now, arrange the "Ax" and the "C's".

3y + 18 = -2x + 22

2x + 3y + 18 = 22

2x + 3y = 22 - 18

2x + 3y = 4

Cheers!
