Answer:

-4

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given</u>

  • Line segment PQ with points P(-2.5) and Q(-1,1)
  • Slope = ?

<u>Slope formula</u>

  • m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)
  • m = (1 - 5)/(-1 - (-2)) = -4/1 = -4
  • Slope is -4

We can use the given points to solve.

Slope formula: y2-y1/x2-x1

(1-5)/-1-(-2))

-4/1

-4

Best of Luck!

Answer:

(1) The possible outcomes are: X = {0, 1, 2, 3}.

(2) The number of times should Hartley spin a difference of 1 is 36.

(3) The number of times should Hartley spin a difference of 0 is 24.

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of sections on the spinner is 4 labelled as {1, 2, 3, 4}.

The total number of spins for each of the spinner is, <em>n</em> = 96.

(1)

The sample space of spinning both the spinners together are:

S = {(1, 1), (1, 2), (1, 3), (1, 4)

      (2, 1), (2, 2), (2, 3), (2, 4)

      (3, 1), (3, 2), (3, 3), (3, 4)

      (4, 1), (4, 2), (4, 3), (4, 4)}

Total = 16.

The possible outcomes are:

X = {0, 1, 2, 3}.

(2)

The sample space with the difference 1 are:

S₁ = {(1, 2), (2, 1), (2, 3), (3, 2), (3, 4), (4, 3)}

n (S₁) = 6

The probability of the difference 1 is:

P(\text{Diff}=1)=\frac{n(S_{1})}{N}=\frac{6}{16}=\frac{3}{8}

The spinners were spinner 96 times.

The expected number of times would Hartley spin a difference of 1 is:

E(\text{Diff}=1)=P(\text{Diff}=1)\times n\\\\=\frac{3}{8}\times 96\\\\=36

Thus, the number of times should Hartley spin a difference of 1 is 36.

(3)

The sample space with the difference 0 are:

S₂ = {(1, 1), (2, 2), (3, 3), (4, 4)}

n (S₂) = 4

The probability of the difference 0 is:

P(\text{Diff}=0)=\frac{n(S_{2})}{N}=\frac{4}{16}=\frac{1}{4}

The spinners were spinner 96 times.

The expected number of times would Hartley spin a difference of 0 is:

E(\text{Diff}=0)=P(\text{Diff}=0)\times n\\\\=\frac{1}{4}\times 96\\\\=24

Thus, the number of times should Hartley spin a difference of 0 is 24.

Solve the equation for the given variable. justify each step.
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer: y=\frac{5-9x}{2}

s=-30+10t

Step-by-step explanation:

9x + 2y = 5; y

9x-9x+2y = 5-9x

2y=5-9x

y=\frac{5-9x}{2}

1/15s - 2/3t = -2; s

(1/15s - 2/3t = -2)*15     ==> Get rid of fraction by multiplying both sides by 15

s - 30/3 t=-30

s-10t=-30

s=-30+10t
