Answer:

y = -2x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

2y = x - 3

y = 1/2x - 3/2

gradient = 1/2

perpendicular gradient = negative reciprocal = -2

y = -2x + c

(-3) = -2(-1) + c

-3 = 2 + c

-5 = c

Answer:

<u>y = -x/2 - 7/2</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Equation of the line (current) in y = mx + c</u>

  • 2y = x - 3
  • y = x/2 - 3/2

The slope of a perpendicular line has to be -ve to the current line.

⇒ m' = -1/2

To find the y-intercept, take the x-coordinate to be 0 and substitute in the equation :

y - y₁ = m (x - x₁)

y + 3 = -1/2 (0 + 1) [Also using the point (-1, -3) to make sure line crosses it]

y + 3 = -1/2

y = -7/2

Therefore, the new equation is :

  • <u>y = -x/2 - 7/2</u>

vivado [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a basketball coach will select the members of a five-player team from among 9 players, including John and Peter.

Out of nine players five are chosen at random.

The team consists of John and Peter.

Hence we can sort 9 players as I group, John and Peter and II group 7 players.

Now the selection is 2 from I group and remaining 3 from II group.

Hence no of ways of selecting a team that includes both John and Peter=2C2*7C3=35

Total no of ways = 9C5=126

= \frac{2C2*7C3}{9C5}=\frac{35}{126} =\frac{5}{18}
