Answer:
a) 1/2
b) 9/40
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Total number of families living in Willbrook Farms Development = 20
Number of families preparing their own federal income taxes for last year = 10
Number of families for which taxes were prepared by a local professional = 7
Number of families for which taxes were prepared by H&R Block = 3
a) Probability of selecting a family that prepared their own taxes = 10/20 = 1/2
b) The probability of selecting two families, both of which prepared their own taxes
10/20 * 9/20 = 9/40
I think it is the first answer I just now did this problem yesterday z.Y<1/4x-1
7/1×1/9
7×1=7
1×9=9
your answer is 7/9
hope this helped
Answer: it is d
Step-by-step explanation:
Hey there!
First, let's look at what perpendicular means. Imagine a cross, where there's all 90 degree angles. That's exactly what we're talking about when we say perpendicular. The given equation is in slope-intercept form, where we have:
y = mx + b
where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
When we're writing an equation with a perpendicular slope, we use the negative reciprocal of the given slope. Thus, we can make 0.3 1/3, and take the reciprocal to make 3, and make it negative 3 as it's the negative reciprocal. Now, we know we have a line with the slope of -3 and goes through (-3, 8). We can use the x and y values in this set of points, along with the slope, to create an equation to solve for b. That gives us:
8 = -3(-3) + b
8 = -9 + b
17 = b
Now, since we have slope and y-intercept, we can write our equation as:
y = -3x + 17
Hope this helps!
