Answer:

Probability of no one picking up a defective product = 571 / 1540

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of items = 22

non-defective items = 22-3 = 19

Probability of all three picking up non-defective products

= 19/22 * 18/21 * 17/20

= 969/1540

Probability of at least one picking up a defective product

= 1 - 969/1540

= 571/1540

(=0.371, approx.)

write an equation in slope intercept form for the line that is perpendicular to y=-1/4x+2 and passes through the points (-4,3)
PilotLPTM [1.2K]
For lines to be perpendicular their slopes must be negative reciprocals of one another, mathematically:

m1*m2=-1, and in this case:

-m/4=-1

-m=-4

m=4, so the slope of the perpendicular line is 4 so we have thus far:

y=4x+b, using point (-4,3) we can solve for the y-intercept, "b"

3=4(-4)+b

3=-16+b

19=b, so our line is:

y=4x+19
