Answer:

The probability of not tossing the bag through the hole is:

\dfrac{35}{44}=0.7954

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a rectangular board of area 44 square inches.

Also there is a square hole near the top of the game board with side length 3 inches.

Hence, the area of the square hole is: (side)^2

Area of square hole=(3)^2

hence, Area of square hole=9 square inches.

The probability of not tossing the bag through the hole is:

Area excluding the square hole/Area of board.

we know that:

Area excluding square hole= Area of board-Area of square hole

                                             =44-9

                                           =35 square inches.

Hence, the probability is:

\dfrac{35}{44}=0.7954

The area of the hole would be 9 in^2 if it is considered that every space withing the board has equal possibilities then 

9/44 = 0.204 = 20.4%

Find the slope of the line that passes through the points shown in the table.
Fed [463]
Answer: -2/7
This value is a fraction.

----------------------------------

Work Shown:

The first two rows in the table produce these two points (x1,y1) = (-14,8) and (x2,y2) = (-7,6)

So, x1=-14, y1=8, x2=-7, and y2=6

Plug these four values into the slope formula and simplify
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (6 - 8)/(-7 - (-14))
m = (6 - 8)/(-7 + 14)
m = -2/7
