Y=-3/5x-46/5 or y=-3/5x-9 1/5

Answer:

y= -3/5x - 46/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the line is perpendicular to y=5/3x-5, We can find the gradient since perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal gradients of each other, so in this case the gradient of the line is -3/5. We have a point, we have the gradient, so we can substitute in y=mx+c to find the y-intercept c, so -5 = (-3/5)(-7) + c.

Calculating will give c= -46/5

so the equation is y= (-3/5)x + (-46/5)

Suppose P( A) = 0.60, P( B) = 0.85, and A and B are independent. The probability of the complement of the event ( A and B) is: a
diamong [38]

Answer: a. 0.4 × 0.15 = 0.060

Step-by-step explanation: Probability of the complement of an event is the one that is not part of the event.

For P(A):

P(A') = 1 - 0.6

P(A') = 0.4

For P(B):

P(B') = 1 - 0.85

P(B') = 0.15

To determine probability of A' and B':

P(A' and B') = P(A')*P(B')

P(A' and B') = 0.4*0.15

P(A' and B') = 0.06

<u>Probability of the complement of the event is 0.060</u>

Classify each pair of numbered angles.
kifflom [539]
Adjacent angles are angles with a common side and vertex, linear pairs are adjacent angles that are supplementary, and vertical angles are angles made by the same two lines but on opposite sides.

For the first one, 5 and 6 clearly do not share a side but they are made up by the same 2 lines and are opposite of each other, making them vertical.

For the next one, since the angles only share 1 line (and not a side) they can't be any of the above.
