Answer:

y = (-5/3)x - 4

Explanation:

The equation of a line with slope m that goes through the point (x1, y1) is:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)_{}

Additionally, two lines are parallel if they have the same slope.

The slope of the line y = (-5/3)x - 2 is (-5/3) because it is the number beside x.

So, the slope of our line is also -5/3.

Therefore, replacing m by -5/3 and (x1, y1) by (-3, 1), we get that the equation of the line is:

\begin{gathered} y-1=-\frac{5}{3}(x-(-3)) \\ y-1=-\frac{5}{3}(x+3) \end{gathered}

Finally, solving for y, we get:

\begin{gathered} y-1=-\frac{5}{3}x-(\frac{5}{3}\cdot3) \\ y-1=-\frac{5}{3}x-5 \\ y=-\frac{5}{3}x-5+1 \\ y=-\frac{5}{3}x-4 \end{gathered}

So, the answer is:

y = (-5/3)x - 4

Alex needs to catch a train. The train arrives randomly some time between $1:00$ and $2:00$, waits for $10$ minutes, and then le
creativ13 [48]

The probability that the train will be there when Alex arrives is 5/18

If Alex arrives at any time after 1.20pm the chances that train will  be there is 1/3.

However  if alex arrives at 1.00pm exactly there is no chance the train will be arrive there.

The probability that the train will be there increase linearly to 1/3 as alex's arrival time moves from 1.00pm to 1.20pm.

By arranging the probabilities over the first 20 minutes to get a 1/6 chance the train will be there if alex arrives between 1.00pm to 1.20pm

we get the final answer by

=1/3( 1/6 + 1/3 + 1/3)

=5/18

So, the probability that the train will be there when Alex arrives is 5/18
