Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

find the slope

\frac{4-8}{-5-(-3)} =\frac{-4}{-2} \\\\slope=2\\y=mx+b\\y=2x+b\\

take a coordinate to fill in

(-5,4)\\y=-5\\x=4\\-5=2(4)+b\\-5=8+b-8   -8\\-13=b\\

this means that the equation is y=2x-13

and if you add m and b

you get :-11

Answer:

7/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $A = (-3,8)$ and $B = (-5,4)$. The midpoint of $\overline{AB}$ is $\left( \frac{(-3) + (-5)}{2}, \frac{8 + 4}{2} \right) = (-4,6)$.

The slope of $\overline{AB}$ is $\frac{8 - 4}{(-3) - (-5)} = 2$, so the slope of the perpendicular bisector of $\overline{AB}$ is $-\frac{1}{2}$. Therefore, the equation of the perpendicular bisector is given by

\[y - 6 = -\frac{1}{2} (x + 4).\]Isolating $y,$ we find

\[y = -\frac{1}{2} x + 4.\]

What’s the correct answer for this?
slava [35]

Answer:

1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's denote the probabilities as following:

Probability that a teenager has a sister:

P(A) = 12/28

Probability that a teenager has a brother:

P(B) = 7/28

Probability that a teenager has both a sister and a brother:

P(A⋂B) = 3/28

Probability that a selected teenager has a sister also has a brother, or in other words, he/she has a brother, given he/she had a sister:

P(B|A)

Let's apply the formula of conditional probability to work out P(B|A)

P(B|A) = P(A⋂B)/P(A) = (3/28)/(12/28) = (3*28)/(12*28) = 3/12 = 1/4

=> Option C is correct

Hope this helps!
