<h2>Answer</h2>

The equation is y = 2x - 12

<h2>Explanation</h2>

Equation in slope intercept form is

$y = mx + b$

Where,

m = slope

b = y-intercept

Putting the value of slope in this equation:

$y = 2x + b$

From this we can solve the equation for b

$b = y - 2x$

$b = -2 - 2(5)$

$b = -12$

Now, the equation of y-intercept becomes

$y = 2x - 12$

T is the midpoint of KL. K has coordinates (2,−6), and T has coordinates (−4,2). Identify the coordinates of L.

kotykmax [81]

Answer:

$L = (-10,10)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$K = (2,-6)$

$T = (-4,2)$

Required

Determine the coordinates of L

Since T is the midpoint of K and L, we make use of:

$T_x = \frac{K_x + L_x}{2}$

and

$T_y = \frac{K_y + L_y}{2}$

Solving for $L_x$

$T_x = \frac{K_x + L_x}{2}$

$-4 = \frac{2 + L_x}{2}$

Multiply through by 2

$-8 = 2 + L_x$

$L_x = -8 - 2$

$L_x = -10$

Solving for $L_y$

$T_y = \frac{K_y + L_y}{2}$

$2 = \frac{-6+L_y}{2}$

Multiply through by 2

$4 = -6 + L_y$

$L_y = 4 + 6$

$L_y = 10$

Hence: The coordinates of L is:

$L = (-10,10)$

What is the propibility of getting a pizza with plain crust

Katen [24]

Answer:

50%

Step-by-step explanation:

As you can see there is only two options for crust, sesame crust, and plain crust. 100/2 = 50 so the probability of getting a plain crust pizza would be 50%

How is 3/5 and 8/10 Are equivalent fractions?

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Hi!

These are not <span>equivalent fractions because 8/10 reduces to 4/5, not 3/5, therefore, they are not </span>equivalent.

Three rats in a lab are injected a type of medicine. The independent probabilities for each rat exhibiting side effects are 0.5,

EleoNora [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

There are four possible values of X: 0 rats show side effects, 1 rat shows side effects, 2 rats show side effects, or all 3 rats show side effects.

Probability X = 0:

P = (1 − 0.5) (1 − 0.4) (1 − 0.3)

P = 0.21

Probability X = 1:

P = (0.5) (1 − 0.4) (1 − 0.3) + (1 − 0.5) (0.4) (1 − 0.3) + (1 − 0.5) (1 − 0.4) (0.3)

P = 0.44

Probability X = 2:

P = (0.5) (0.4) (1 − 0.3) + (0.5) (1 − 0.4) (0.3) + (1 − 0.5) (0.4) (0.3)

P = 0.29

Probability X = 3:

P = (0.5) (0.4) (0.3)

P = 0.06
