There are no real solutions
So slope intercept form is y=mx+b
m=slope b=y intercept
convert current equation to slpe intercept
y-4=x-8
add 4 to both sides
y=x-4
tada
For A:
You add the probabilities to get the answer to A: = .75, or 3/4
Note that the probability of ALL THREE of them hitting would be 1/3 x 1/4 x 1/5.
For B:
2/3 and 3/4 is the probability of the other two people MISSING (the remainder of 1/3, 1/4)
1.0 = 100% chance to hit the target, so 1.0 x 2/3 x 3/4 = 1/2
Mark's chance of hitting is 1/5, so do 1/2 x 1/5, = 1/10
Answer:
1. 2/4 = 1/2
2. 9/24= 3/8
3. 56/64= 7/8
