Answer:

The equation of a line parallel to y = 7x - 8 that passes through (5,-2):

:y=7x-37

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation of the line :

y = 7x - 8

Slope intercept form =  y = mx + c

Where = m = Slope of the line

c = intercept on y axis

On comparing the given equation with slope intercept form , we get

m = 7, c = -8

For equation of line which parallel to the line formed by given equation will have same slope because parallel lines have same value of slope.

m' = m= 7

Equation of the line passing from point (5,-2) can be determined by the help of point slop form;

(y-y_1)=m(x-x_1)

(x_1,y_1): (5,-2)

Slope of the parallel line = m' =7

(y-(-2))=7(x-5)

y+2=7x-35

y=7x-37

The equation of a line parallel to y = 7x - 8 that passes through (5,-2):

:y=7x-37

What two numbers multiply to -50 and add up to -23
umka2103 [35]

Answer:

-25 and 2

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y = -23

xy = 50, so y = 50 /x

.

x + 50/x =-23,  x^2 +23x - 50 = (x-2)(x+25)

so 2 and -25

Using the variable x for unknown number what is five more than the quotient of a number and 6 equals 7
Kitty [74]

Answer:

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

"Using the variable x for unknown number what is five more than the quotient of a number and 6 equals 7" translates into  5 + x/6 = 7.

To solve use inverse operations.

5 + \frac{x}{6} = 7\\\\\frac{x}{6} = 2 \\\\ x = 12

What is the solution for the equation?<br> a+8/3=2/3
Readme [11.4K]
A+8/3 = 2/3
Or, (3a+8)/3 = 2/3 [taking LCM]
Or, 3a+8 = 2 [3 in both denominators are cancelled]
Or, 3a = 2-8
Or, a = -6/3
.•. a = -2,,

You roll two fair dice, a green one and a red one.
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

(a) yes

(b) 1/36

(c) 1/36

(d) 1/18

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) yes they are independent as the outcome of one does not affect the outcome of the other.

(b) As the dice are fair, each possible number (1 through 6) has the same probability of being rolled.

P(1 on green die) = 1/6

P(2 on red die) = 1/6

Therefore, P(1 on green die) AND P(2 on red die) = 1/6 × 1/6 = 1/36

(c) Again, as the dice are fair, each possible number (1 through 6) has the same probability of being rolled.

P(2 on green die) = 1/6

P(1 on red die) = 1/6

Therefore, P(2 on green die) AND P(1 on red die) = 1/6 × 1/6 = 1/36

(d) p[(1 on green die and 2 on red die) OR (2 on green die and 1 on red die)

= 1/36 + 1/36

= 2/36

= 1/18
