Answer:

a.-4

Step-by-step explanation:

I pictured it as a graph and since the slope is negative, the line goes down and to the right. Since the slope is -1/2, for every 2 you move horizontally, you move one vertically. You have to move two up and unless the y intercept is 0, when the line intercepts y, you have 0 as x. You move two up and 4 backwards so the x intercept is -4

Plz someone help me on this question I rlly need help

Sauron [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

you simply have to mark the points in which the x and y coordinates are given take for example "1,4" it took him 4 minutes to read 1 page right? the one is marked as X and the 4 is marked as Y so put a point in which the 1 at X and the 4 at Y meet in the coordinates system. Do so with every coordinates and then draw a line in the direction of all the points

A área do círculo mede 196 π cm². Qual a medida do seu raio?

AleksandrR [38]

Hey there!!

The area of a circle = πr²

The area is given as 196π

Hence,

196π = πr²

... r²= 196

... r = √196

... r = 14

Hence, the radius is 14 cm.

Hope it helps!

Chase buys a bag of cookies that contains 6 chocolate chip cookies, 6 peanut butter cookies, 6 sugar cookies and 6 oatmeal cooki

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

Write an equation of a line in slope intercept form that is perpendicular to the line 2x -3y = 12 and passes through the point (

Scilla [17]

Answer:

The equation of the line would be y = -3/2x + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this, start by finding the slope of the original line. You can do this by solving for y.

2x - 3y = 12

-3y = -2x + 12

y = 2/3x - 4

Now that we have a slope of 2/3, we know that the perpendicular slope is -3/2 (since perpendicular lines have opposite and reciprocal slopes). We can use this and the new point in point-slope form to find the equation.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 6 = -3/2(x - 2)

y - 6 = -3/2x + 3

y = -3/2x + 9

HELPPP

densk [106]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Decompose each number:

$6) 90 = 9 \times 10\\\\7) 40 = 4 \times 10\\\\8)890 = 89 \times 10\\\\9) 300 = 3 \times 100\\\\10) 7000 = 7 \times 1000\\\\11)3700 = 37 \times 100\\\\$

Correct the error. Write the correct decomposition:

$12) 560 = 56 \times 10\\\\13) 4300 = 43 \times 100\\\\14) 6000 = 60 \times 100 \ \ or \ \ 6 \times 1000$
