This is super simple. Begin with cross multiplying

35/x=7/13 becomes (35)*(13)=(7) *(x)

Then multiply my love muffin, you get...

455=7x

divide both sides by 7

65=x
-or-
x=65

hope that helped :)

Choose the equation below that represents the line passing through the point (1, -4) with a slope of 1/2

For this case we have that by definition, the line equation of the slope-intersection form is given by:

$y = mx + b$

Where:

m: It's the slope

b: It is the cut-off point with the y axis

According to the statement we have:

$m = \frac {1} {2}$

Thus, the equation is of the form:

$y = \frac {1} {2} x + b$

We substitute the given point and find "b":

$-4 = \frac {1} {2} (1) + b\\-4 = \frac {1} {2} + b\\-4- \frac {1} {2} = b\\b = - \frac {9} {2}$

Finally, the equation is of the form:

$y = \frac {1} {2} x- \frac {9} {2}$

Answer:

$y = \frac {1} {2} x- \frac {9} {2}$

A jar contains six blue marbles and five red marbles. Suppose you choose a marble at random, and do not replace it. Then you ch

TEA [102]

The jar has 6+5=11 marbles.

We have to find the probability of the following event:

1.We pick a marble from a jar that has 11 marbles in total, 5 of them are red

2.We pick a marble from a jar that has now 10 marbles in total, 4 of them are red (because in the previous step we picked a red marble and did not put it back in the jar)

The probability of the first event is:

$P_1=\frac{5}{11}$
