Answer:

7/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope intercept form is y=mx+b. It is called that because it tells us the slope,m, and the y-intercept, b.

So we can solve your given equation to find m the slope.

7x-5y=10

Subtract 7x on both sides:

-5y=-7x+10

Divide both sides by -5

y=(-7/-5)x+(10/-5)

Simplify:

y=(7/5)x+-2

m=7/5 so 7/5 is the slope.

Answer:

x²=2x-1>>

x²-2x+1=0

x=1

y²-4 = 5x>>

y²= 5×1+4=9

y=3

x_2=z-2>>

z=x=1

Answer:

PQ = 6.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Corresponding sides of similar shapes or figures are proportional to each other. Since ∆LMN ~ ∆OPQ, the ratio of their corresponding sides would therefore be equal. Thus:

LN/OQ = MN/PQ

LN = 5

OQ = 17

MN = 2

PQ = ?

Plug in the values

5/17 = 2/PQ

Cross multiply

5*PQ = 2*17

5*PQ = 34

PQ = 34/5

PQ = 6.8

A marble is randomly selected from a bag. The probability of selecting a marble with dots on it is 0.2. The probability of selec

marin [14]

Answer:

0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let D be the event of selecting a marble with dots.

Let P be the event of selecting a purple marble.

The probability of selecting a marble with dots, P(D)=0.2

The probability of selecting a marble that is both purple and has dots, $P(D \cap P)=0.1$

We want to determine the probability of selecting a purple marble given that the marble has dots on it, P(P|D)

By the definition of conditional probability:

$P(P|D)= \dfrac{P(P \cap D)}{P(D)} \\= \dfrac{0.1}{0.2}\\ =0.5$

The probability of selecting a purple marble given that the marble has dots on it is 0.5.
