Answer:
option A
Step-by-step explanation:
Y = mx + b
slope(m) = -2/3
(2,-5)...x = 2 and y = -5
now we sub, we r looking for b, the y int
-5 = -2/3(2) + b
-5 = - 4/3 + b
-5 + 4/3 = b
- 15/3 + 4/3 = b
- 11/3 = b
equation is : y = -2/3x - 11/3...but we need it in standard form
Ax + By = C
y = -2/3x - 11/3
2/3x + y = - 11/3....multiply by 3
2x + 3y = -11 <== standard form
Answer:
To find out the number coming from each school, you need to use the proportion of the school's population out of the population of all three.
Total population = 618 + 378 + 204
= 1,200 students
North Middle school:
= 618/1,200 * 20
= 10 students
Central Middle School:
= 378 / 1,200 * 20
= 6 students
South Middle School:
= 204/1,200 * 20
= 4 students
