Answer:

B. (-2,-4)

Explanation

Given equations:

   y = 3x + 2

   y = -2x - 8

Solving both equations will yield the values of x and y;

Solution:

   y = 3x + 2    ----- (i)

   y = -2x - 8   ------ (ii)

Using substitution method, input equation i, into ii

    3x + 2 = -2x - 8

Collect like terms and solve;

     3x + 2x = -8 -2

         5x  = -10

            x  = -2

Then put x = -2 into i, to find y

      y = (-2 x 3) + 2

       y = -6 + 2 = -4

So, the solution of the equation is B. (-2,-4)

Is the distance a baseball travels in the air after being hit a discrete random​ variable, a continuous random​ variable, or not
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer: a continuous random​ variable

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Can you count the distance it traveled?</em></u> You can't, so it couldn't be discrete because you can count discrete variables.

<u><em>Can you measure the distance it traveled? </em></u>You sure can, that makes it a continuous random variable.

<u><em>Do you know the exact distance it's going to travel?</em></u><u> </u>You won't, therefore it's a random variable since you don't know the value beforehand.

Find the equation of a line that passes through the point (-2,1) and has a gradient of -3.
zavuch27 [327]

A straight line passing through the point (-2,1) and having a gradient of -3 yields the equation y = -3x - 5.

We know that a straight line is an infinitely long line with no curves on it. A straight line's equation is

y = mx + c...(1), where m is the gradient of the straight line and c is a constant.

Given that the gradient of the given straight line = m = -3.

Putting this value in (1), we get

y = -3x + c ...(2)

Again, the given straight line passes through the point (-2,1). So, we can put x = -2 and y = 1 to get the value of the constant c.

So, 1 = (-3)(-2) + c

i.e. 6 + c = 1

i.e. c = 1 - 6 = -5

(2) can be written as

y = -3x - 5

Therefore the equation of the given straight line is

y = -3x - 5

Need this for my math test?
docker41 [41]

Answer:

519.6

Step-by-step explanation:

A hexagon has a total of 720 for it's interior angles so each angle is 120 and in the triangle, each of them is 60, making it an equilateral triangle. You can use 30 60 90 triangles to find the height which is 5√3.

(5√3)*10=50√3

The area of the triangle times 6 is 300√3 which is approximately 519.6
