As we go from (-6,6) to (9,1), x increases by 15 and y decreases by 5. Thus, the slope of this line is m = rise / run = -5/15, or m = -1/3.
Point-slope form: y-6 = (-1/3)(x+6), using data from (-6,6).
Slope-intercept form: starting with y = mx + b, substit. -6 for x, 6 for y and -1/3 for m:
6 = (-1/3)(-6) + b, or
6 = 2 + b. Then b = 4, and the equation in slope-intercept form is
y = (-1/3)x + 4.
Answer:
11/19
Step-by-step explanation:
Firstly, we need to know the total number of instructors. This is equal to 7+5+4+3 = 19 instructors.
The probability of selecting a science instructor is 4/19
The probability of selecting a math instructor is 7/19
The probability of selecting either a science or a maths instructor is 4/19 + 7/19 = 11/19
I think it would be something like this: x-80 = (x*2)+12
4 3/4 - 4 1/3
= 4 9/12 - 4 4/12
= 5/12 <==== extra cup put in
