Answer:

The desired point is thus (-1/2, -5).

Step-by-step explanation:

The x-component of this directed line segment is 2 - (-8), or 10, and the y-component is -7 - (1), or -8. This segment is in Quadrant II, since the x-component is positive and the y-component is negative.

The point of interest is (3/4) of the way in the positive x-direction from x = -8. We can express this symbolically as -8 + (3/4)(10), or -8 + 7.5, or -1/2.

The point of interest is 3/4 of the way in the negative y direction from 1, or:

1 + (3/4)(-8), or 1 - 6, or -5.

The desired point is thus (-1/2, -5).

Answer:

(x, y, z) = (2+44t, 2+14t, 7-20t)

Step-by-step explanation:

One way to write parametric equations for line L is ...

L = P + t·<em>v</em>

where P is the given point and <em>v</em> is the given direction vector. Using that form, we have ...

(x, y, z) = (2+44t, 2+14t, 7-20t)

If you like, you can remove a common factor of 2 from the coefficients of t.

(x, y, z) = (2+22t, 2+7t, 7-10t)

What is the pobability that a number cube with six

Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer: $\dfrac{1}{6}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the total number of outcomes for fair dice {1,2,3,4,5,6} = 6

Given : Favorable outcome = 5

i.e. Number of favorable outcomes =1

We know that the formula to find the probability for each event is given by :-

$\dfrac{\text{Number of favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total outcomes}}$

Then, the probability that the six faces cube will land with the number 5 face up will be :_

$\dfrac{1}{6}$

Hence, the required probability = $\dfrac{1}{6}$
