The equation we look for must have a slope that is the inverse reciprocal of -4. The inverse reciprocal always leads to -1 when multiplied by the given slope.

Let's see: -4(1/4) = -1.

Yep. The slope of the equation we need to find is 1/4.

Use the point-slope formula to find your equation.

Point-slope: y - y_1 = m(x - x_1), where m is the slope, y_1 is the y-coordinate of the given point and x is the x-coordinate of the given point.

We now plug, chug and isolate y.

Ready?

y - 10 = (1/4)(x - 4)

y - 10 = (1/4)x -1

y = (1/4)x - 1 + 10

Your equation is y = (1/4)x + 9.

Can someone help me solve #1 and #2 by working backward? Here is a picture:
Brilliant_brown [7]
1. 4(n+3)=16, n+3=4, n=1
2. m/4+3=24, m/4=21, m=84
1. three added to a number n implies n+3, 4 times that sum is 4 (n+3), to solve divide both sides by 4 then subtract three from both sides.
2. a number divided by 4 means n/4 adding it to three n/4+3, to solve subtract 3 from both sides then multiply both sides by 4

Two married couples have purchased theater tickets and are seated in a row consisting of just 4 seats. If they take their seats
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

The answer is 0.75.

Step-by-step explanation:

To use probability of a complement event, we need to find the situation where none of the couples are sitting next to each other which can happen either two husbands are sitting in the seats 2 and 3 or two wives are sitting in the seats 2 and 3. Also in the first scenario, the wives would need to be sitting at the opposite ends to their husbands and vice versa for the second scenario.

So there are in total 4 scenarios where no couple is sitting next to each other.

There are a total of 16 different ways that they can be seated so the probability of compelement is 16 - 4 = 12, which is 3/4 of the total, meaning that the probability of at least one of the wives sittting next to her husband is 0.75 or 75%.

I hope this answer helps.
