What is the equation of the line ?

Mathematics

Answer:Tthe correct answer is option A. y = 4x/3 - 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given figure we get two points of the line.

(4,5) and (-2,-3)

<u>To find the slope of line</u>

slope m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

(x₁,y₁) = (-2,-3)

(x₂,y₂) = (4, 5)

m =  (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁) =(5 - -3) (4 - -2) = 8/6 = 4/3

<u>To find the equation</u>

The equation is given by,

(y - y₁) = m(x - x₁)

y - -3 = 4/3(x - -2)

y + 3 = 4(x+2)/3

3y + 9 = 4x + 8

3y = 4x - 1

y = 4x/3 - 1/3

Therefore the correct answer is option A. y = 4x/3 - 1/3

Answer: OPTION A

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line, by definition, has the following form:

y=mx+b

Where m is the slope and b  is the y-intercept.

Calculate the slope as following:

m=\frac{5-(-3)}{4-(-2)}=\frac{4}{3}

Now, you must solve for the y-intercept, as you can see below:

5=\frac{4}{3}(4)+b\\ b=-\frac{1}{3}

Then, the equation of the line is:

y=\frac{4}{3}x-\frac{1}{3}

Over [174]

Answer:

0.0652173

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

6 chocolate chip cookies

6 peanut butter cookies

6 sugar cookies

6 oatmeal cookies

Total number of cookies purchased = (6+6+6+6) = 24

Probability, P= required outcome /total possible outcomes

This is a selection without replacement probability problem :

P(peanut butter cookies) = 6/24 = 1/4

Then ;

P(chocolate chip cookie) = 6/23

Hence,

P(peanut butter cookies then chocolate chip cookie) = 1/4 * 6/23 = 0.0652173

Q2: Explain the difference between the solution to an equation and the solution to an inequality. (dba 3
CaHeK987 [17]
The solution(s) of a system of linear equations give points of intersection of specific lines or planes.

The solution(s) of a system of linear inequalities give areas of intersection wherein any specific pair of points or lines are solutions.

PROCESS-WISE there are little differences between solving systems. However, multiplication and division by negatives reverses the signs in inequalities.

Some students are working together to draw a picture of a playground.
vodomira [7]

From the information provided by the statement, you know that

*Ann draws 2/16 of the playground

*Susan draws 6/16 of the playground because she draws 3 times as much as Ann so

3\cdot\frac{2}{16}=\frac{3}{1}\cdot\frac{2}{16}=\frac{6}{16}

*Louise draws 3/16 because she draws half as much as Susan, so

\frac{1}{2}\cdot\frac{6}{16}=\frac{6}{32}=\frac{2\cdot3}{2\cdot16}=\frac{3}{16}

*Sam draws 2/16 because she draws 1 less section than Louise

\frac{3}{16}-\frac{1}{16}=\frac{2}{16}

Now, let x be the fraction of the playground that still needs to be drawn. Then, you have

\begin{gathered} \frac{2}{16}+\frac{6}{16}+\frac{3}{16}+\frac{2}{16}+x=\frac{16}{16} \\ \text{ Add similar terms} \\ \frac{13}{16}+x=\frac{16}{16} \\ \text{ Subtract }\frac{13}{16}\text{from both sides of the equation} \\ \frac{13}{16}-\frac{13}{16}+x=\frac{16}{16}-\frac{13}{16} \\ x=\frac{3}{16} \end{gathered}

Therefore, 3/16 of the playground still needs to be drawn.
