Substituting (x, y) with (a, a), since we have:

3a=2a-4, which means that 3a-2a=-4, that is a=-4.

So, the point is (-4, -4).


Remark: a point which lies in the graph of an equation is a solution of that equation. So x=a, y=a satisfies the equation <span> 3y = 2x -4, which makes our substitution legitimate.


Answer: </span>(-4, -4).

3) 3+8<15   This would be a single line, not a triangle.

2) 15+8=23   This would be a single line, not a triangle.

krok68 [10]
Total students = 15+21=36, so the probability of choosing a girl is 21/36, which reduces to 7/12.
Total freshmen = 12+15=27, so the probability of choosing a freshman is 27/36, which reduces to 3/4.
