3 0

Answer:

(a) 3 (b) 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability is defined as the ratio of number of elements in event to the number of elements in sample space.

(a) As the total number of child is 3, so the number of elements in sample space = 3

(b) The sample space is { boy, boy, girl}

So, the probability is 1/3.

X - 0.17 = y

add 0.17 to both sides

x = y + 0.17

Write an equation for the line that passes through (4,-6) and (-7,-6). Is the line parallel or perpendicular to the y-axis?

alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

y = -6, perpendicular

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use the points to find the slope of the line:

$m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}} =\frac{-6-(-6)}{-7-4} =\frac{-6+6}{-7-4}=\frac{0}{-11}=0$

Then, using point-slope form, choose one set of coordinates to use for y1 and x1:

$y-y_{1}=m(x-x_{1})$

$y-(-6)=0(x-4)$

$y+6=0$

$y=-6$

Since the slope of the line is zero, it's a horizontal line. The y-axis is a vertical line, which means that the line is perpendicular to the y-axis.
