Slope intercept form equation:

y=mx+C

----------------------

We already know that m=-4. Now, let's find the value of C.

--------------------

m=-4, and when x=-1, y=5.

(5)=(-4)*(-1)+C

5=4+C

5-4=4+C-4

1=C

-----------------

Therefore the slope intercept form of the function is:

y=-4x+1

Y = mx + b

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

plug in m = -4, and plug in the point (-1,5) and solve for b

y = -4x + b

5 = -4(-1) + b

5 = 4 + b

b = 1

So the slope-intercept form of the function that contains the point (-1,5) and has a slope of -4 is y = -4x + 1.

For an outdoor concert by the city orchestra, concert organizers estimate that 10,000 people will attend if it's not raining. If
Vlada [557]

Answer:

The number of expected people at the concert is 8,500 people

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are asked to determine the expected number of people that will attend a concert if we are given the probabilities that it will rain and it will not rain.

We proceed as follows;

The probability that it will rain is 30% or 0:3

The probability that it will not rain would be 1 -0.3 = 0.7

Now, we proceed to calculate the number of people that will attend by multiplying the probabilities by the expected number of people when it rains and when it does not rain.

Mathematically this is;

Number of expected guests = (probability of not raining * number of expected guests when it does not rain) + (probability of raining * number of expected guests when it rains)

Let’s plug values;

Number of expected guests = (0.3 * 5,000) + (0.7 * 10,000) = 1,500 + 7,000 = 8,500 people

Give right triangle PQR, which representa the value of sin (P)?
Komok [63]

sinR = \frac{QR}{PQ}

noting that the sin ratio = \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}

opposite to ∠P is QR and hypotenuse is PQ ( opposite right angle )

Which of the following is the solution to the inequality -2x-4 ≤ 11
Art [367]

Answer:

x\geq -\frac{15}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

add 4 on both sides

leaves you with 15 on the right side

you then divide by negative 2

since you divide by a negative you have to switch the sign
