Slope intercept form will help you find the function of the line :) [ y = mx + b ]

at time = 0 (y-intercept) the pool is 72in deep

the pool loses 2 inches of water every 1 hour. or -2/1

so your equation is y = -2x + 72

Good Luck!

There were 6 purple socks and 4 oraange socks without looking and then another without looking (or replacing the first). What is

shusha [124]

Answer:

The probability that he picked 2 purpled socks is 0.33.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of purple socks, $n(P) = 6$

Number of orange socks, $n(O) = 4$

Two socks are picked without replacement.

Now, total number of socks, $n(T)=N(P)+n(O)=6+4=10$

Probability of picking the first cap as purple cap is given as:

$P(P1)=\frac{n(P)}{n(T)}\\\\P(P1)=\frac{6}{10}=\frac{3}{5}$

Since there is no replacement, the number of socks decreases by 1. Also, if the first sock picked is purple, then number of purple socks is also decreased by 1.

Therefore, probability of picking the second cap as purple cap is given as:

$P(P2)=\frac{n(P)-1}{n(T)-1}\\\\P(P2)=\frac{5}{9}$
