Mathematics

Answer:

y = 8x - 26 → y = 8x + -26 \\ \\ -26 = 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}{-3 + 4} = \frac{8}{1} = 8☑

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

6 = 8[4] + b

32

−26 = b

y = 8x - 26

_______________________________________________

−2 = 8[3]+ b

24

−26 = b

y = 8x - 26

** 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.

Answer:

-26 is the y-intercept

Step-by-step explanation:

since you already have the slope solved, you just have to plug in one of the two coordinate pairs. i plugged it (4,6) since it didnt have any negatives to work with. 6 should be where y is and 4 is x. you now should solve it as a normal equation. it gave me -26.

Which best describes the complement of spinning any number less than 3?
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

  • <u>The complement of spinning any number less than 3, is spinning a number equal to or greater than 3.</u>

Explanation:

The complement of a subset is the subset of elements that are not in the given subset.

You must know which numbers the spinner has.

Assuming the spinner has the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, the complement of spinning any number less than 3, is spinning a number that is not less than 3.

Then, that is spinning a number that is equal to or greater than 3.

The numbers that are equal to  or greater than four, for a spinner that has the numbers 1, 2, 3, and 4 are 3 and 4.

Thus, the complement of spinning any number less than 3 is spinning a three or a four.
