I need the description of how to draw a parallel line and a perpendicular line.

1 answer:

5 0

How to Draw Parallel Lines:
1. Draw a straight line any length

2. Draw another straight line any length

(note : ensure the lines will never intersect)

They shall never horizontally or vertically.

How to Draw Perpendicular Lines:
1. Draw a straight line vertically

2. Draw a straight line horizontally

(note : length does not necessarily matter)

The two lines must cross at right angles to each other!!

With the parallel line instructions, simply just draw lines but, when given the slopes of two lines, you must get graphing paper or make your own, and graph it by plotting points and then getting a ruler and tracing it.

With the perpendicular lines it helps with showing a relation between situations along with given slopes. They shall intersect always and meet at a 90° angle. Use the equations and plot them then take a ruler and trace them and notice the intersection. Solve it yourself and see that the intersection and the answers you got are the same.

Of the 50 students in an undergraduate statistics class, 60% send email and/or text messages during any given lecture. They have

sasho [114]

Answer:

0.3 or 30%

Step-by-step explanation:

Since no innocent student will ever be caught, the probability that a student sends an email and/or text message during a lecture AND gets caught is given by the product of the probability of a student sending a message (60%) by the probability of the professor catching them (50%) :

$P = 0.5*0.6 = 0.3$
