Answer:

In mathematics, the slope or gradient of a line is a number that describes both the direction and the steepness of the line. ... Slope is calculated by finding the ratio of the "vertical change" to the "horizontal change" between (any) two distinct points on a line.

The linear combination method gives a solution of (–4, 2) for which of these systems of linear equations?

Andrew [12]

Answer:

$3x + 13y = 14$

$6x + 11y = -2$

Step-by-step explanation:

See Attachment for complete question

To determine which of the options has (-4,2) as its solution; we have to test each linear combination until we arrive at an answer;

Given that

$(x,y) = (-4,2)$

Testing Option A

$3x + 13y = 14$

$6x + 11y = -2$

Substitute $x = -4$ and $y = 2$ in $3x + 13y = 14$

$3(-4) + 13(2) = 14$

Open Brackets

$-12 + 26 = 14$

$14 = 14$

Substitute $x = -4$ and $y = 2$ in $6x + 11y = -2$

$6(-4) + 11(2) = -2$

Open Brackets

$-24 + 22 = 2$

$2 = 2$

In both cases, the expression on the right hand side equates to that on the left hand side;

Hence, there's no need to check for other options.

mr morris needs two students to help with a demonstration for her class of 12 girls and 14 boys. She randomly chooses two studen

IRISSAK [1]

The class starts out with 26 students, of whom 12 are girls and, perhaps unlike Mr Morris, are sure of it. The probability of the first random choice being a girl is 12/26. If successful, there are now 25 students left, of whom 11 are girls. The probability of a girl on the 2nd random choice is 11/25. The probability that BOTH random choices are successful is (12/26) x (11/25). That's (132/650), or about 20.31% (rounded).
