Answer:

y = 2x

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula is y = mx + b

m is slope

slope = (4 - -2) / (2 - -1) = 6 / 3 = 2

Now equation is y = 2x + b

To find b, substitute one of the coordinates in the equation. Let's use (2,4)

y = 2x + b

4 = 2(2) + b

b = 0

So equation is y = 2x

elena-s [515]

Answer:

L = 6 --- Length

W = 4.5 --- Width

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Let: L = Length; W = Width

Area = 27m^2

L = 2W- 3m

Required

Find the dimensions of the rectangle

Area (A) is calculated as:

A  = L * W

This gives:

27 = (2W - 3) * W

Open bracket

27 = 2W^2 - 3W

Express as a quadratic function

2W^2 - 3W - 27 = 0

Expand

2W^2 + 6W - 9W - 27 = 0

Factorize:

2W(W + 3) - 9(W + 3) = 0

(2W - 9)(W + 3) = 0

This gives:

2W - 9 = 0\ or\ W + 3 = 0

2W = 9 \ or\ W = -3

Width can not be negative.

So:

2W = 9

W = 4.5

Recall that:

L = 2W- 3m

L = 2 * 4.5 - 3

L = 6

I need help with how to solve this problem. It is #14. It already shows the answer (1point) but I need help on how to get there
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

Option 4: 0.554

Step-by-step explanation:

As we can see that the intervals and their frequencies are given.

We have to calculate the probability of students' score falling between 70 and 89. It will use the frequency of both intervals 70-79 and 80-89.

So, combined scores of both intervals are:

172+105 = 277

Now to find the probability

= 277/500

=0.554

So option no 4 is the correct answer ..
