Answer:

y=-x+4

Step-by-step explanation:

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

m=(-1-1)/(5-3)

m=-2/2

m=-1

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-1=-1(x-3)

y-1=-x+3

y=-x+3+1

y=-x+4

If a dart was thrown randomly at the dart board shown below, what is the probability that it would land between the outer circle

Mademuasel [1]

Answer: B) 67%

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Find the Area of the Bullseye and Middle ring

A = π r²

A (inside) = π(8)² = 64π

Find the Area of the entire Target

A (target) = π (14)² = 196π

Find the Area of the Outer ring

A (outer ring) = A (target) - A(inside)

= 196 π - 64π

= 132 π

The last step is to find the probability of landing on the outer ring:

$P=\dfrac{success (area\ of\ outer\ ring)}{total\ possible\ outcomes(area\ of\ target)}=\dfrac{132\pi}{196\pi}=0.673=\large\boxed{67\%}$

Apples cost $3.60 for 3 lb. At that rate, how many pounds of apples can you buy for $8.40?

irinina [24]

Apples cost $3.60 for 3 pounds . The rate can be calculated as follows

$\begin{gathered} 3\text{ pounds = \$3.60} \\ 1\text{ pounds = ?} \\ \text{rate = }\frac{3.60}{3} \\ \text{rate}=\text{ \$1.2 per pound} \end{gathered}$

The amount of pounds you can buy for $8.40 can be computed below

$\begin{gathered} \text{rate}=\frac{8.40}{\text{pounds}} \\ 1.2=\frac{8.40}{\text{pounds}} \\ weight\text{ in pounds = }\frac{8.40}{1.2} \\ \text{weight in pounds = 7 Ib} \end{gathered}$
