Answer:

7/16

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability calculates the likelihood of an event occurring. The likelihood of the event occurring lies between 0 and 1. It is zero if the event does not occur and 1 if the event occurs.

For example, the probability that it would rain on Friday is between o and 1. If it rains, a value of one ids attached to the event. If it doesn't a value of zero is attached to the event.

Proportion of defective televisions in the shipment = 15/240 = 1/16

Probability that 1 of the 7 chosen is defective = 1/16 x 7 = 7/16

Two perpendicular lines intersect on the y-axis. the equation of one line is 4y - x - 24 =0. determined the equation of the othe
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

y  + 4x - 6 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Rearranging the given equation:-

4y = x + 24

y = 1/4 x + 6  

This has a y intercept of  (0, 6) and a slope of 1/4.

Thus, the other line has a slope of -4 and  passes through the point (0,6) also.

Using the Point-slope form of a straight line:-

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 6 = -4(x - 0)

y  + 4x - 6 = 0  is the required equation
