Uh... 3 1/2 jail? I don't know.
Step-by-step explanation:
you drew already the right things, you have everything.
so, what is the problem ?
the most common form of line equation is
y = ax + b
a is the slope of the line. it is expressed as the ratio
y coordinate change / x coordinate change
when going from one point to the other.
b is the y-intercept (the y value when x = 0).
once we have the slope, we get b by using the coordinates of one of the given points as x and y in the equation and solve for b.
so, for the 2 marked points you showed correctly the differences :
x changes by +8 (from -4 to 4).
y changes by -2 (from 3 to 1).
so the slope is -2/+8 = -1/4
the y-intercept we also see directly in the chart : +2.

How to add,subtract, and multiply distributive property
I am working on adding, subtracing, and multiplying distributive property. I am confused because i do not know what steps to take in order to do each problem

The distributive property allows us to simplify equations.
The following is a simple problem that shows how we can use the distributive property:
A florist is selling flower arrangements with 4 lilies and 3 roses. If John bought 5 arrangements, how many of each flower would he have?
5 x (4 + 3)
The distributive property says that we can distribute the 5 and simplify this to 5 x 4 + 5 x 3. By multiplying you would get 20 lilies and 15 roses or 35 flowers total.
If we do not distribute the 5, we would get 5 x 4 + 3. 20 lilies and 3 roses or 23 flowers total.
The distributive property works the exact same way with subtraction, but remember, you only distribute to the numbers inside the parentheses. Variables can be distributed the same way.
with subtractions, one must take great care. For example 5-3*(6-2) = 5-3*6+3*2. Note that the rule that the product of two negatives is a positive was used. A common mistake is to say that the expression equals 5-3*6-3*2.

While the question is vague, this may help.
The Order of Operations is the priority in which you perform operations in mathematics. The order of operation is:
- Do operations within parentheses first,
- Exponents
- Multiplication and Division, Left to right, as you encounter them
- Addition and Subtraction, Left to right, as you encounter them
An example:
5(4+2)2(1+3) - 3(6-3)(7+1)2 =
Work the parentheses, and keep everything else unchanged: 5(4+2)2(1+3) - 3(6-3)(7+1)2 =5 (6)2(4) - 3(3)(8)2
Now your exponents: 5 (6)2(4) - 3(3)(8)2 = 5 (36)(4) - 3(3)(64)
Now Multiplication, Left to right: 5 (36)(4) - 3(3)(64) = 720 - 576
Now Addition and Subtraction, left to right: 720 - 576 = 144
Until you get used to it, feel free to do only one operation at a time, even if multiple instances appear in the same line, such as working with our parentheses in the example above:
5(4+2)2(1+3) - 3(6-3)(7+1)2 = 5(6)2(1+3) - 3(6-3)(7+1)2 =5(6)2(4) - 3(6-3)(7+1)2 and so on.

Answer:
0.164 = 16.4% probability that at least one color will be missing from the 10 selected balls.
Step-by-step explanation:
A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.
Determine the probability that at least one color will be missing from the 10 selected balls.
Red missing:
Each time, there are 55 + 25 = 80 non-red balls, out of 100. So, in each of the 10 trials, 80% = 0.8 probability of not picking a red ball. The probability that no red ball is picked is given by:
(0.8)^10 = 0.1074
White missing:
55 + 20 = 75 non-white balls, out of 100, in each trial. The probability that no white ball is picked is given by:
(0.75)^10 = 0.0563
Blue missing:
45 non-blue balls, out of 100. The probability that no blue ball is picked is given by:
(0.45)^10 = 0.0003
Total:
0.1074 + 0.0563 + 0.0003 = 0.164
0.164 = 16.4% probability that at least one color will be missing from the 10 selected balls.
