Answer:

a) a=-12

b) a=27

Step-by-step explanation:

a) parallel lines have = slopes SO

-3/2 = -3/2

-3/2 = 18/a

-3a/2 = 18

-3a = 18 * 2 = 36

a = -12

b) perpendicular lines have negative inverse slopes SO

- 3/2 ---> 2/3

2/3 = 18/a

2a/3 = 18

2a = 18 * 3 = 54

a = 54/2 = 27

JulijaS [17]

Answer: 0.3125.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • The chance of having a boy is 0.5,
  • the chance of having a girl is also 0.5.

<u>Outcome 1: all boys</u>

boy  boy  boy  boy

0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 = 0.0625

<u>Outcome 2: first child is a girl, all others are boys</u>

girl   boy   boy   boy

0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 = 0.0625

<u>Outcome 3: second child is a girl, all others are boys</u>

boy   girl   boy   boy

0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 = 0.0625

<u>Outcome 4: third child is a girl, all others are boys</u>

boy   boy   girl   boy

0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 = 0.0625

<u>Outcome 5: fourth child is a girl, all others are boys</u>

boy   boy   boy   girl

0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 = 0.0625

Therefore,

0.0625 + 0.0625 + 0.0625 + 0.0625 + 0.0625 = 0.0625 * 5 = 0.3125
