Answer:
A. 15x +14y = -36
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we are given two points, we can start with the 2-point form of the equation for a line.
y = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)(x -x1) +y1
y = (6 -(-9))/(-8 -6)(x -6) +(-9)
y = 15/-14(x -6) -9
Multiplying by -14, we have ...
-14y = 15x -90 +126
Adding 14y-36 to both sides gives ...
-36 = 15x +14y . . . . matches choice A
The standard-form equation is ...
15x +14y = -36
_____
<em>Additional comments</em>
It can be easier to start with the form ...
(Δy)x -(Δx)y = (Δy)x1 -(Δx)y1 . . . . . where Δx = x2-x1 and Δy = y2-y1
This gives ...
(6+9)x -(-8-6)y = 15(6) +14(-9)
15x +14y = -36 . . . simplified

You can also start with the slope-intercept form or the point-slope form, if you're more familiar with those. The result will be the same. I find it handy to be familiar with a number of different forms of the equation for a line.

Answer:
Explanation:
You can build a two-way relative frequency table to represent the data:
These are the columns and rows:
Car No car Total
Boys
Girl
Total
Fill the table
- <em>30% of the children at the school are boys</em>
Car No car Total
Boys 30%
Girl
Total
- <em>60% of the boys at the school arrive by car</em>
That is 60% of 30% = 0.6 × 30% = 18%
Car No car Total
Boys 18% 30%
Girls
Total
By difference you can fill the cell of Boy and No car: 30% - 18% = 12%
Car No car Total
Boy 18% 12% 30%
Girl
Total
Also, you know that the grand total is 100%
Car No car Total
Boy 18% 12% 30%
Girl
Total 100%
By difference you fill the total of Girls: 100% - 30% = 70%
Car No car Total
Boy 18% 12% 30%
Girl 70%
Total 100%
- <em>80% of the girls at the school arrive by car</em>
That is 80% of 70% = 0.8 × 70% = 56%
Car No car Total
Boy 18% 12% 30%
Girl 56% 70%
Total 100%
Now you can finish filling in the whole table calculating the differences:
Car No car Total
Boy 18% 12% 30%
Girl 56% 14% 70%
Total 74% 26% 100%
Having the table completed you can find any relevant probability.
The probability that a child chosen at random from the school arrives by car is the total of the column Car: 74%.
That is because that column represents the percent of boys and girls that that arrive by car: 18% of the boys, 56% of the girls, and 74% of all the the children.
Answer: 30
Explanation:
There are 2 types of cones and 15 types of flavors. So there are 2*15 = 30 different combos of one-scoop ice cream orders.
