4x+2y=-6
2y = -4x - 6
y = - 2x - 3
slope = -2
y-intercept when x = 0
so y = -3

answer
slope = -2
y-intercept (0,-3)

Hi and good morning from Canada!

In order to find the slope and the y-intercept of 4x+2y=-6, we need to put this equation in y=mx+b form. This is because m=the slope and b=the y-intercept of a linear function, which is what this equation is (since the degree of the equation is a 1).

4x+2y=-6
2y=-4x-6
y=-4/2x-6/2
y=-2x-3

Therefore the slope is equal to -2 and the y-intercept is (0, -3).

Hope this helps!

Teesha is in french club. there are 19 students in the club. The french teacher will pick two students at random to guide visiti

To answer this we need to find the probability that teesha is not chosen for each pick, then multiply them together.

For the first pick, there are 19 students in the class, so teesha has a 18/19 chance of not getting chosen. For the second pick, one student has been removed, so there is now only a 17/18 chance Teesha is not chosen.

We now multiply the two probabilities together. 18/19 * 17/18 = 306/342

Simplify and we get 153/171.
