Write an equation of the line that passes through the given points (1 , 1.5) and (2, 3.5)

Nitella [24]

Answer:

y=2x-0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

typically, the equation of the line is written in slope intercept form, which is y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

first, we need to find the slope (m) of the line

the formula for slope calculated from two points is given as (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

we have two points: (1,1.5) and (2,3.5) and we can label them

x1=1

y1=1.5

x2=2

y2=3.5

now plug into the formula:

m=(3.5-1.5)/(2-1)

m=2/1

m=2

the slope of the line is 2

here's our equation so far:

y=2x+b

now we need to find b

since the line will pass through the points (1, 1.5) and (2, 3.5), we can plug either one of them into the equation to solve for

Let's use (1, 1.5)

substitute 1.5 as y and 1 as x

1.5=2(1)+b

1.5=2+b

subtract 2 from both sides

-0.5=b

therefore, our equation is:

y=2x-0.5

hope this helps!

Please answer 26 and 27 please thank you

ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

Part 26) $3\frac{1}{4}\ in$

Part 27) $2\frac{2}{3}\ cups$

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 26)

we know that

The length of Alana's hair was 9 3/4 inches

After her haircut, the length was 6 1/2 inches

To find out how many inches did she have cut subtract 6 1/2 from 9 3/4

but first

Convert mixed number to an improper fraction

$9\frac{3}{4}\ in=\frac{9*4+3}{4}=\frac{39}{4}\ in$

$6\frac{1}{2}\ in=\frac{6*2+1}{2}=\frac{13}{2}\ in$

Find the difference

$\frac{39}{4}-\frac{13}{2}=\frac{39-26}{4}=\frac{13}{4}\ in$

Convert to mixed number

$\frac{13}{4}\ in=\frac{12}{4}+\frac{1}{4}=3\frac{1}{4}\ in$

Part 27)

we have that

Emeril used a total of 7 1/4 cups of flour to make three pastries

He used 2 1/4 cup of flour for the first and 2 1/3 cups of flour for the second

To find out how much cups of flour Emeril use for the third pastry, subtract the sum of the cups of flour used in the first and second pastry from the total cups of pastry used

Let

x ----> number of cups of flour used in the third pastry

$x=7\frac{1}{4}-(2\frac{1}{4} +2\frac{1}{3})$

but first

Convert mixed number to an improper fraction

$7\frac{1}{4}\ in=\frac{7*4+1}{4}=\frac{29}{4}\ cups$

$2\frac{1}{4}\ in=\frac{2*4+1}{4}=\frac{9}{4}\ cups$

$2\frac{1}{3}\ in=\frac{2*3+1}{3}=\frac{7}{3}\ cups$

substitute

$x=\frac{29}{4}-(\frac{9}{4} +\frac{7}{3})$

$x=\frac{20}{4} -\frac{7}{3}$

$x=\frac{20*3-7*4}{12}$

$x=\frac{32}{12}\ cups$

Simplify

$x=\frac{8}{3}\ cups$

Convert to mixed number

$\frac{8}{3}=\frac{6}{3}+\frac{2}{3}=2\frac{2}{3}\ cups$

What is the conditional frequency of a student who rides the bus being late to class first period?

Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

The Constraint is ; those who rode the bus, hence it is conditional because we aren't focused on students, only students who rode the bus.

Now we want the frequency of those who were late Given that they rode the bus : for these we have 3 students

Total number of students who rode the bus , total possible outcome = 15

Hence, the conditional frequency = (number who rode bus and were late / otal number who rode the bus)

Hence, we have ; 3 / 15 = 1 / 5
