Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

-2(x-7)=16

-2x +14=16 You distribute

      -14 -14

-2x = 2

-2     -2 you divide

and get -1 as your answer.

Hope my answer has helped you!

Answer:

We need to remember that we have independent events when a given event is not affected by previous events, and we can verify if two events are independnet with the following equation:

P(A \cap B) = P(A) *P(B)

For this case we have that:

P(A) *P(B) = 0.01*0.02= 0.0002

And we see that 0.0002 \neq P(A \cap B)

So then we can conclude that the two events given are not independent and have a relationship or dependence.

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we can define the following events:

A= In a certain computer a memory failure

B= In a certain computer a hard disk failure

We have the probability for the two events given on this case:

P(A) = 0.01 , P(B) = 0.02

We also know the probability that the memory and the hard drive fail simultaneously given by:

P(A \cap B) = 0.0014

And we want to check if the two events are independent.

We need to remember that we have independent events when a given event is not affected by previous events, and we can verify if two events are independnet with the following equation:

P(A \cap B) = P(A) *P(B)

For this case we have that:

P(A) *P(B) = 0.01*0.02= 0.0002

And we see that 0.0002 \neq P(A \cap B)

So then we can conclude that the two events given are not independent and have a relationship or dependence.

Which of the following is a correct equation for the line passing through the point (-2,1) and having slope m= 1/2?
Taya2010 [7]

Incomplete Question the complete Qs is

Which of the following is a correct equation for the line passing through the point (-2,1) and having slope m = 1/2?  

a: y=1/2x+2

b: y=-2x+1/2

c: x-2y=-4

d: y-1=1/2(x+2)

Answer:

The Correct option is c. x-2y=-4

Therefore the correct equation for the line passing through the point (-2,1) and having slope m= 1/2 is

x-2y=-4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Slope = m =\dfrac{1}{2}

point A(x₁, y₁)=(-2,1)  

To Find:  

Equation of Line  =?  

Solution:  

Equation of a line passing through a points A( x₁ , y₁) and having slope m is given by the formula,  

i.e equation in point - slope form

(y-y_{1})=m(x-x_{1})

Now on substituting the slope and point A( x₁ , y₁) ≡ ( -2 , 1) we get

(y-1)=\dfrac{1}{2}(x-(-2))\\\\2y-2=x+2\\x-2y=-2-2=-4\\x-2y=-4 As required

Therefore the correct equation for the line passing through the point (-2,1) and having slope m= 1/2 is

x-2y=-4
