Answer:   y = \frac{4}{5}x-\frac{3}{5}

m = 4/5 is the slope

b = -3/5 is the y intercept

====================================

First find the slope

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (-3 - 1)/(-3 - 2)

m = -4/(-5)

m = 4/5

Then use point-slope form

y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)\\\\y - 1 = \frac{4}{5}(x - 2)\\\\y - 1 = \frac{4}{5}x + \frac{4}{5}(-2)\\\\y - 1 = \frac{4}{5}x - \frac{8}{5}\\\\y = \frac{4}{5}x - \frac{8}{5} + 1\\\\y = \frac{4}{5}x - \frac{8}{5} + \frac{5}{5}\\\\y = \frac{4}{5}x + \frac{-8+5}{5}\\\\y = \frac{4}{5}x - \frac{3}{5}\\\\

The equation is in the form y = mx+b with m = 4/5 as the slope and b = -3/5 as the y intercept.

Find a side of an equilateral triangle with a 12 inch altitude
saveliy_v [14]
Since the triangle is an equilateral triangle we know all of it's sides must be the same length, with that in mind the angles that make up the triangle must be equal as well. Knowing that a triangle's three interior angles make up 180 degrees we know that the size of each angle must be one third of this (as each angle must be equal).

180/3 = 60


then we may split the triangle along it's altitude into two special right triangles
more specifically two 30-60-90 triangles.

this means that the side with 30 degrees will be some value "x" where the side for 60 degrees will be related as it is "x*sqrt(3)" and the hypotenuse (which would be the side of the triangle) would be proportionally "2x"

this would mean that the altitude is the side associated with the 60 degree angle as such we can solve for "x" using this.

12= x*sqrt(3)
12/sqrt(3)=x
4sqrt(3)=x  (simplifying the radical we get "x" equals 4 square root 3)

now we may solve for the side length of the triangle which is "2x"

2*4sqrt(3) ->   8sqrt (3)  

eight square root of three is the answer.

18. An urn contains 3 red balls, 2 green balls and 1 yellow ball. Three balls are selected at random and without replacement fro
Goryan [66]

Answer:

27.77%

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of not drawn a red ball is 3/6. The probability of not drawn a green ball is 4/6, and the probability of not drawn a yellow ball is 5/6. So, the probability of not drawn at least one color is the multiplication of the probabilities of each color, so (3/6)*(5/6)*(4/6) = 0.2777.
