First, we find the equation of the line...

(1,3),(-3,7)
slope = (7 - 3) / (-3 - 1) = 4/-4 = -1

y = mx + b
slope(m) = -1
use either of ur points.... (1,3)...x = 1 and y = 3
now sub into the formula and find b, the y int
3 = -1(1) + b
3 = -1 + b
3 + 1 = b
4 = b
so the equation for this line is : y = -1x + 4 which is usually written as :
 y = -x + 4

Now...to find where the line crosses the x axis (or the x intercept)...we sub in 0 for y and solve for x

y = -x + 4
0 = -x + 4
x = 4... so ur x intercept (where the line crosses the x axis) is : (4,0)

A bag contains 8 purple marbles & 12 green marbles. You choose one marble out of the bag without looking.
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

1. P(P) = 8/20 = 0.4

2. P(G) = 12/20 = 0.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Number of green marbles G = 12

Number of purple marbles P = 8

Total T = 12+8 = 20

The probability that you choose a purple marble P(P) is;

P(P) = number of purple marbles/total number of marbles

P(P) = P/T = 8/20 = 0.4

P(P) = 0.4

The probability that you choose a Green marble P(G) is;

P(G) = number of Green marbles/total number of marbles

P(G) = G/T = 12/20 = 0.6

P(G) = 0.6

Help plz I'm desperate ​

<u>Anna:</u>

1st month = 18 + \frac{3}{4} = 18\frac{3}{4} inches

2nd month = 18\frac{3}{4} + \frac{3}{4} = 19\frac{1}{2}

3rd month = 19\frac{1}{2} + \frac{3}{4} = 20\frac{1}{4}

4th month = 20\frac{1}{4} + \frac{3}{4} = 21

5th month = 21 + \frac{3}{4} = 21\frac{3}{4}

<u>Grace:</u>

Because Anna is \frac{9}{4} inches shorter than Grace, we can start the count from the third month:

1st month = 20\frac{1}{4}

2nd month = 21

3rd month = 21\frac{3}{4}

4th month = 21\frac{3}{4} + \frac{3}{4} = 22\frac{1}{2}

5th month = 22\frac{1}{2} + \frac{3}{4} = 23
