Answer:
The desired equation is y = (-8/3)x + 26/3.
Step-by-step explanation:
Moving from (1,6) to (4, -2) involves an increase of 3 in x and a decrease of 8 in y. Thus, the slope of the line thru these two points is m = rise / run = -8/3.
Using the slope-intercept form of the eq'n of a straight line and inserting the data given (slope = m = -8/3, x = 4, y = -2), we get:
y = mx + b => -2 = (-8/3)(4) + b, or -2 = -32/3 + b
Multiply all terms by 3 to clear out the fraction:
-6 = -32 + 3b.
Then 26 = 3b, and b = 26/3.
The desired equation is y = (-8/3)x + 26/3.
Answer:
Jada ran 1.977 miles farther than Noah.
Step-by-step explanation:
Jada = 7.1m [J=7.1] & Noah = 5.123m [N=5.123] & Additional miles = AM
J-A=AM
7.1-5.123=AM
7-5=2, 0.1-0.123=-0.023
2-0.023=1.977
AM=1.977
Answer: P (3 or 9) = 1/6
Step-by-step explanation:
Concept:
Here, we need to know the idea of probability.
Probability is a measure of the likelihood of an event to occur.
If you are still confused, please refer to the attachment below for a graphical explanation.
Solve:
The numbers on a dice: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
Total numbers = 6
Number of 3 = 1
Number of 9 = 0
P (3 or 9) = Favorable / Total (refer to the attachment below)
P (3 or 9) = (1 + 0) / (6)
P (3 or 9) = 1 / 6
Hope this helps!! :)
