Answer:

(-2,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The closet point on a line to any given point is the point where a perpendicular line intersects them both. The perpendicular line to y=-x-4 that intersects (4,4) is y=x. If you graph them both, you will find that they intersect at (-2,-2).

Find the probability for choosing a letter at random from the word: Probability P(not P) A.) 1/11 B.) 2/11 C.) 5/11 D.) 10/11

elixir [45]

Answer:

D.) 10/11

Step-by-step explanation:

Here the given word Probability has 11 letters in it. And we have to calculate the Probability of not selecting a letter P from the above word.

So the formula for calculating any probability is Total Favorable outcomes / Total number of outcomes.

Here total number of outcomes are 11 as word Probability has 11 letters.

So the probability of selecting letter P from word Probability = $\frac{1}{11}$

Now the P(not P) = 1 - P(selecting letter P)

= 1 - $\frac{1}{11}$ = $\frac{10}{11}$

Serjik [45]

Answer:

one solution

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3(3y+6)=0

Multiply by 3/2

3/2 *2/3(3y+6)=0*3/2

3y+6 = 0

Subtract 6 from each side

3y = -6

Divide by 3

3y/3 = -6/3

y = -2
