pj=14

jb=28

p=14/j

b=28/j

pb=(14/j)×28/j

pb=392/j²

j²=9.333≅

pb=392/9.333

pb=42.0015≅42

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the information given, point j is the midpoint, as it is shared by both line segments. Set the equation:

pb = pj + jb

Note:

pj = 14

jb = 28

Plug in the corresponding numbers to the corresponding variables:

pb = pj + jb

pb = 14 + 28

pb = 42

pb = 42 is your answer.

Select the postulate that is illustrated for the real numbers. 3x + 3 = 3(x + 1) The commutative postulate for multiplication Mu

fredd [130]

Distributive postulate.

The expression 3x + 3 = 3(x + 1) is an example of a distributive postulate. It says that multiplying a number by a group of numbers added together is the same as doing each multiplication separately.

Answer:

(a) 1/2
(b) 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) 3 of the 6 numbers on the die are even, so the probability that one of them will show is 3/6 = 1/2.

(b) 2 of the 6 numbers on the die are less than 3, so the probability that one of them will show is 2/6 = 1/3.

Find the equation of this line. y= [?]x+[?]

DochEvi [55]

Answer:

$y=3x-4$

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Slope-intercept form: $y=mx+b$ where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (the value of y when x=0)

1) Determine the slope (m)

$m=\displaystyle\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$ where two points that fall on the line are $(x_1,y_1)$ and $(x_2,y_2)$

On the graph, two points are highlighted for us: (0,-4) and (2,2). Plug these into the formula:

$m=\displaystyle\frac{2-(-4)}{2-0}\\\\m=\displaystyle\frac{2+4}{2}\\\\m=\displaystyle\frac{6}{2}\\\\m=3$

Therefore, the slope of the line is 3. Plug this into $y=mx+b$ :

$y=3x+b$

2) Determine the y-intercept (b)

$y=3x+b$

Recall that the y-intercept occurs when x=0. Given the point (0,-4), the y-intercept is therefore -4. Plug this into $y=3x+b$ :

$y=3x+(-4)\\y=3x-4$

I hope this helps!

Which expression gives the distance between the points (5, 1) and (9, -6)?

Vesna [10]

So the distance formula: d = rad (x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2
it doesn't matter what order you do, you just have to make sure it's a y coordinate for y and an x coordinate for x.
rad (9-5)^2 + ((-6)-1)^2
rad 4^2 + (-7)^2
rad 16 + 49
rad 65
