Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

The total number of people he has surveyed is 12 +  64 = 76

So your probability is 12 / 76

When turned into a percent, the fraction becomes 100 times 12/76.

Givens

12 wore sneakers

64 wore other shoes

76 total in survey

Solution

P(sneakers) = # sneakers / Total

P(sneakers) = 12 / 76 = 0.15789

P(sneakers as a %) = 0.15789 * 100 = 15.789%

Answer

<em>P(sneakers %) = 15.8 rounded to nearest 1/10</em>

What is an equation of the line that passes through the points (-4, -5) and<br> (-8, -2)?
nikklg [1K]

Solution:

<u>Step-1: Find the slope of the line.</u>

Formula of slope: y₂ - y₁/x₂ - x₁

  • y₂ - y₁/x₂ - x₁ = Slope
  • => -2 - (-5)/-8 - (-4) = Slope
  • => -2 + 5/-8 + 4 = Slope
  • => 3/-4 = Slope

<u>Step-2: Use the point slope formula to determine the slope.</u>

Point slope form formula: y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

  • y - y₁ = m(x - x₁) = Equation of line
  • => y - (-5) = -3/4{x - (-4)} = Equation of line
  • => y + 5 = -3/4{x + 4} = Equation of line
  • => y + 5 = -3x/4 - 3 = Equation of line
  • => y = -3x/4 - 8 = Equation of line

The equation of the line is <u>y = -3x/4 - 8.</u>
