Answer:19/26

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of students=26

Number of students that play basket ball=8

Number of students that play

baseball=11

Probability of playing both=6

Probability of playing either of the 2 games=8/26+11/26=19/26

What is the y=Mx+b of this equation
Monica [59]

Answer:

y =  - 6x - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The y-intercept is where the line itersects the y-axis, which is the dark vertical line. This is -8 represented as the constant in the equation.

To find the slope, find the rise over run. Every time the line goes over 1 it goes down 6, so the slope would be -6.

LUCKY_DIMON [66]
<span>current ratio: 4 apple trees for every 3 pear trees. wants: 2 avocado trees for every 5 pear trees in the orchard. Sandy is planting 18 avocado trees so 2 avocado trees for every 5 pear trees =1 avocado trees for every 2.5 pear trees therefore if we have 18 avocado trees 18 x 2.5 = 45 pear trees 4 apple trees for every 3 pear trees 4/3 = 1.333 apple trees for every 1 pear tree therefore if we have 45 avocado trees 45 x 1.333 = 60 apple trees therefore ratio of avocado to apple trees = 18 : 60 18 : 60 = 9 : 30 = 3 : 10</span>

find the equation of a straight line passing through the point(4,5) and equally inclined to the lines 3x = 4y +7 and 5y= 12x +6
galina1969 [7]
<span>First we have to determine the slope of each lines by transforming to the slope-intercept form:

y=(3x-7/)4; m2= ¾y=(12x+6)/5, m3 = 12/5

The formula to be used in the proceeding steps is    a=tan^-1(m1-m2)/1+m1m2=tan^-1(m1-m2)/1+m1m2
substituting,      a=tan^-1(m1-3/4)/1+3m1/4=tan^-1(m1-12/5)1+12m1/5)     =>(4m1-3)/(4+3m1)=(5m1-12)/(5+12m1)m1 = -1applying this slope 

y -y1 = m(x-x1)
when y1 = 5 and x1 = 4 then,
y - 5 = -1(x-4)
y = -x +4+ 5 ; y = -x +9</span>

Suppose it is known that for a given differentiable function y=f(x), its tangent line (local linearization) at the point where a
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

y(-4) = 5

y'(-4) = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi!

Since the tangent line T and the curve y must coincide at x=-4

y(-4) = T(-4) = 5

On the other hand, the derivative of the curve evaluated at -4 y'(x=-4) must be the slope of the tangent line. Which inspecting the tangent line T(x) is -7

That is:

y'(-4) = -7

Identify the action-reaction pair when a softball player hits a home run
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

Newton's third law of motion states that every action has an equal and opposite reaction. In softball when the catcher catches the ball the two forces present are the mitt on the ball and the ball on the mitt. The two are equal and in opposite directions.
