A line that's perpendicular would have a slope that the negative reciprocal of the line in the question
1. use the points to find the slope
(y1-y2)/(x1-x2)
=(-3-7)/(-7+5) (it's +5 because --5=+5)
=-10/-2
-5
slope of the line is -5
2. The negative reciprocal is basically flipping over a fraction (3/4 would become 4/3) and then multiplying it by -1 (4/3 would become -4/3)
Because -5 is really -5/1 you would flip it to -1/5 then multiple by -1 to equal 1/5.
3. Now we just need any line that has a slope of 1/5
y=mx+b where m=1/5 and b is whatever number you want
y=1/5x+8
y=1/5x-193748
y=1/5x-103595
All these are right answers just pick your favourite number for b

A) Probability  that at least one of these golfers makes a hole in one on the 10th hole at the same tournament is 

<span>=1−(<span>2493/2494</span><span>)^<span>5
=1-(0.99)^5
= 1- 0.96
=0.4

b) T</span></span></span><span>he probability that all of these golfers make a hole-in-one on the 10th hole at the same tournament
=</span>(<span>1/2494</span><span>)<span>5

which is nearly zero.
