X would equal 12 because, to go from -6 to -3 you would need to add 3. Do the same with nine, 9 + 3 = 12.

The thought process here is meant to be along these lines:

y = -6 when x =9

y = -3, and -3 is half of -6. so, proportionally speaking, if -3 is half of 6, the x value that the question asks for will have to be half of 9 -- 4.5.

Instructions: Rewrite the equation in Slope-Intercept Form. y−2=−2/5(x−5)

Leno4ka [110]

The equation in Slope-Intercept Form is y = -2/5 x + 4.

We have given that,

y−2=−2/5(x−5)

We have to rewrite the equation in Slope-Intercept Form.

<h3>What is the slope-intercept form of the line?</h3>

slope-intercept form is y = mx + b

for equation y - 2 = -2/5 (x - 5) we need to simplify/rearrange

so y - 2 = -2/5 x + -2/5 (-5)

= -2/5 x + 2

=> y = -2/5 x + 4

This line has a gradient of -2/5 (goes down 2 units and across 5 units) and a y-intercept of 4 so passes through the point (0,4).

A travel agent is booking trips for tourists who travel from New York to Chicago. Tourists have three choices for how to travel

Hitman42 [59]

List all the different combinations with total cost:

Airplane + van = 350 + 60 = $410

Airplane + cab = 350 + 40 = $390

Bus + van = 150 + 60 = $210

Bus + cab = 150 + 40 = $190

Train + van = 225 + 60 = $285

Train + cab = 225 + 40 = $265

There are 6 different combinations.

There are 2 that are more than $300

The probability would be quantity higher than 300 / total combinations.

Probability = 2/6 = 1/3

You roll two dice. Let event A be "The first die shows a 1, a 2, a 3, or a 6" and event B be "The second die shows an even numbe

sesenic [268]

<span>The two dice rolls are independent, so the fact that you roll an even number on the 2nd dice has no bearing on the probability that the first die shows a 1, 2, 3, or 6. Answer: 4/6 = 2/3.
