Answer:

y = \frac{4}{5}x - 2 → y = \frac{4}{5}x + -2 \\ \\ -2 = b

Step-by-step explanation:

First, check the <em>rate of</em><em> </em><em>change</em><em> </em>[<em>slope</em>]:

\frac{-y_1 + y_2}{-x_1 + x_2} = m

\frac{-2 + 6}{-5 + 10} = \frac{4}{5}☑

Then plug these coordinates into the Slope-Intercept Formula instead of the <em>Point-Slope </em><em>Formula</em>, to get it done much swiftly. It does not matter which ordered pair you choose:

6 = ⅘[10] + b

8

−2 = b

y = \frac{4}{5}x - 2

_______________________________________________

2 = ⅘[5] + b

4

−2 = b

y = \frac{4}{5}x - 2

** You see? I told you it did not matter which ordered pair you choose because you will ALWAYS get the exact same result.

I am joyous to assist you anytime.

olga nikolaevna [1]
<span>Using processing software (Excel) or even a decent scientific calculator. You input the values and generate the best fit cubic equation.
For number 1, the equation is
y = 8x10</span>⁻⁵ x³ - 0.0097 x² + 0.374 x + 1.083
where x is the number of years since 1900
y is the pounds cheese consumed

For number 2, the equation is
y = -3x10⁻⁵ x³ + 0.0028 x² + 0.2155 x + 1.7736

For number 3

I am lost on what to do
Neko [114]
\bf sin({{ \alpha}})sin({{ \beta}})=\cfrac{1}{2}[cos({{ \alpha}}-{{ \beta}})\quad -\quad cos({{ \alpha}}+{{ \beta}})]&#10;\\\\\\&#10;cot(\theta)=\cfrac{cos(\theta)}{sin(\theta)}\\\\&#10;-----------------------------\\\\&#10;\lim\limits_{x\to 0}\ \cfrac{sin(11x)}{cot(5x)}\\\\&#10;-----------------------------\\\\&#10;\cfrac{sin(11x)}{\frac{cos(5x)}{sin(5x)}}\implies \cfrac{sin(11x)}{1}\cdot \cfrac{sin(5x)}{cos(5x)}\implies \cfrac{sin(11x)sin(5x)}{cos(5x)}

\bf \cfrac{\frac{cos(11x-5x)-cos(11x+5x)}{2}}{cos(5x)}\implies \cfrac{\frac{cos(6x)-cos(16x)}{2}}{cos(5x)}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\cfrac{cos(6x)-cos(16x)}{2}\cdot \cfrac{1}{cos(5x)}\implies \cfrac{cos(6x)-cos(16x)}{2cos(5x)}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\lim\limits_{x\to 0}\ \cfrac{cos(6x)-cos(16x)}{2cos(5x)}\implies \cfrac{1-1}{2\cdot 1}\implies \cfrac{0}{2}\implies 0

Which table correctly shows all the sample spaces for tossing a coin and rolling an even number on a six-sided number cube?
wlad13 [49]
Alright, so you have to have heads and tails, as well as 3 spots each for each even number. Therefore, we need heads with 2 4 6 as well as tails with 2 4 6  (the third one down in the first picture)
