You would need 13. Since there are 12 months, if you gather 12 people and they each have different months, there would be 1 person per month. If you add 1 more person, it is safe to assume that that person will be with another person in a certain month.

When 23 people<span> are gathered, there is more chance than not that 2 of them have the same birthday. In order to help understand this, you should consider how many PAIRS of people there are. With </span>23 people<span> there are 253 different pairings i.e. more than half of the 365 possible birthdays.</span>

A line passes through (2,8) and (4,12) WHICH EQUATION BEST REPRESENTS THE LINE
Thepotemich [5.8K]
Well to find this answer, you would have to know the formula of a line, or also known as slope intercept form-- "y= mx+b" 

1) Let's find the slope between the two points! (Use the y1-y2 over x1-x2 slope formula) 

y1-y2
-------- = slope formula. Use the points 2,8 and 4,12
x1-x2 


12-8       4           2
------  =  ----  =    -----  = our slope is 2! 
4-2         2           1
                     ^---- Here we simplify 

2) Now we know our slope is 2! Substitute this into the y=mx+b formula 

y=2x+b

3) Take one of the points we used for finding the slope and substitute it into our slope-intercept formula. That way we can solve for "b", our y-intercept. 

y=2x+b
8= 2(2)+b  MULTIPY 
8= 4 +b
-4  -4        SUBTRACT (inverse operations) 
----------
4=b        SIMPLIFY (our final answer) 

4) Now we know our y-intercept! Substitute it into the slope-intercept form to get our line. 

y=2x+b
y=2x+4

5) Check your work by taking one of the points from above and substitute again! 

y=2x+b
12= 2(4)+4
12= 8+4
12=12

Our equation works!
