Answer:

0.58 = 58% probability she passes both courses

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this question treating the probabilities as a Venn set.

I am going to say that:

Event A: She passes the first course.

Event B: She passes the second course.

The probability she passes the first course is 0.67.

This means that P(A) = 0.67

The probability she passes the second course is 0.7.

This means that P(B) = 0.7

The probability she passes at least one of the courses is 0.79.

This means that P(A \cup B) = 0.79

a. What is the probability she passes both courses

This is P(A \cap B).

We use the following relation:

P(A \cup B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A \cap B)

So

P(A \cap B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A \cup B) = 0.67 + 0.7 - 0.79 = 0.58

0.58 = 58% probability she passes both courses

Which equation is perpendicular to 3x - y = 9 and goes through the point (6,6)
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

y = - \frac{1}{3} x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Rearrange 3x - y = 9 into this form by subtracting 3x from both sides

- y = - 3x + 9 ( divide all terms by - 1 )

y = 3x - 9 ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = 3

Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

m_{perpendicular} = - \frac{1}{m} = - \frac{1}{3}, thus

y = - \frac{1}{3} x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (6, 6) into the partial equation

6 = - 2 + c ⇒ c = 6 + 2 = 8

y = - \frac{1}{3} x + 8 ← equation of perpendicular line
