Question 8

Every Saturday, Will has to decide how to exercise for the day. If he goes to the
pool one week, the chances that he will go to the pool the next week is 0.4. If he
goes to the gym the previous week, the probability he will go to the pool to the
next week will be 0.8.

If Will goes to the pool one week, what is the probability he will go to the gym
exactly 2 times in the next 3 weeks?


Question 9

= 3 6 is parallel to the tangent to the curve when x = 3. Find m and k.


Question 10

ordinates of where this minimum distance hits the line.
