The slope perpendicular to the one given is the opposite reciprocal. So the slope of the "new" line will be -1/5. Using y = mx + b and filling in 3 for y, -10 for x and the slope, m, of -1/5 will help you solve for b. Then use that b to write the new equation. 3= -1/5(-10) + b and b = 1. Your equation, then, is y = -1/5x + 1
Answer:
If a and b are two events such that:
b⊂a
Then it is obvious that p(b)≤p(a)
where p denotes the probability of an event.
<em>" Because as one event is contained in the other that means it has possibility to contain more favourable outcomes than the other while the probability of both the events is calculated by taking the total number of outcomes to be equal "</em>
Let us consider an <u>example</u> as:
We roll a die;
so the total outcomes are: {1,2,3,4,5,6}.
Now let b denotes the event that the number is an even number less than 5.
Number of favourable outcomes( {2,4} )=2
p(b)= 2/6
let a denotes that the number is less than 5.
Then Number of favourable outcomes( {1,2,3,4} )=4
p(a)=4/6
clearly b⊂a
also we could see that p(b)<p(a)
Point form: (-2, 0)
Equation form: x=2, y=0
Answer is D since the polygon is inside the circle !!!
