You can change it to Slope-Intercept form. That’s what I do as it’s easier to tell what is the slope and the y-intercept.
y=mx+b
2x + 3y = 6
3y = -2x + 6
y = -2/3x + 2
Steps:
Isolate y (move 2x to the other side) and change the sign of 2x (positive to negative). Divide everything in the equation by 3 in order to get y by itself.
Now that you have the equation, the slope is -2/3 and the y-intercept is 2. What I would do it start at 2 on the y axis and go down 2 units and to the right 3 units. The other way would be start at 2 on the y axis and go up 2 units on the y axis and then to the left 3 units. Your line should be a straight, diagonal line going down (in \ <— direction).
Hope this helped!! Tried to be as informative as possible.
Answer:
8) x = 5.41
9) x = 45
10) x = 2.25
Step-by-step explanation:
8) 17/15 = 10/(2x-2)
150 = 34x - 34
reduce:
34x = 184
x = 5.41
9) 6/16 = (x-12)/(2x-2)
16x - 192 = 12x - 12
reduce:
4x = 180
x = 45
10) (x-9)/15 = (2x-9)/10
10x - 90 = 30x - 135
reduce:
20x = 45
x = 2.25
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is 3.71%
Given: .62 probability of reaching 75 years old and 0.023 probability of reaching 85 years old
Since Mr. Clooney already reached 75 years old, we'll divide the probability of reaching 85 by the probability of reaching 75.
<span>.023 / .62 = .0370967742 x 100 = 3.71%
Why? </span><span>Assume there are 1000 men who were born at the same time.
0.62 * 1000 = 620 of them will make it to 75.
0.023 * 1000 = 23 of them will make it to 85.
The proportion of those who will make it to 85 assuming that they already made it to 75 will be 23 / 620 = 0.0370967742 (same as above)</span>
