Answer:

2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve with combination formula

C(n, r) = nCr = n!/r!( n - r)!

The selection will happen between four women and six men

Total number of people = Total number of possibly outcomes = Four women + six men

= 10 people

This can happen in two ways

a) 2 women

b) 1 man and 1 woman

The probability that at least one woman is selected =

4C2 ×(6C1 + 4C1)÷ 2 ways / 10C2

[6 × (6+ 4)] ÷ 2 / 45

= (6 × 10) ÷ 2/45

= 30/45

= 2/3

What is the equation of the line that passes through (2, -7) and (-1, 2)?
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

y = -3x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope intercept form of the equation of a line is:

y = mx + b

where m is the slope, and b is the y-intercept.

First, we find the slope of the line using the two given points.

m = slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) = (2 - (-7))/(-1 - 2) = (2 + 7)/(-3) = 9/(-3) = -3

Now we plug in the slope we found into the equation above.

y = -3x + b

We need to find the value of b, the y-intercept. We use the coordinates of one of the given points for x and y, and we solve for b. Let's use point (2, -7), so x = 2, and y = -7.

y = -3x + b

-7 = -3(2) + b

-7 = -6 + b

Add 6 to both sides.

-1 = b

Now we plug in -1 for b.

y = -3x - 1
