You would multiply each side of the equation by the reciprocal of 3/5 (5/3) because would cancel out 3/5 which would leave you with x and the answer.

A concert organizer recorded the number of people in different age groups who attended a concert. She then created the following
m_a_m_a [10]
This is the concept of statistics. The correct answer is:
There are twice as many participants in the 0-19 age group than in the 60-79 age group. This is because:
Number of participants in the age group 0-19 is 40 participants
Number of participants in the age group 60-79 is 20 participants.
From the above we see that the age group 0-19 is double the number of age group 60-79 years old. 
Therefore our answer is option C

An ordinary (fair) die is a cube with the numbers

There are a few ways to look at this. If you wanted to look at all the events, you could draw a 6 x 6 grid and label the left side from 1 to 6 and the bottom from 1 to 6. The intersection of a row and a column would be a possible sum. You can check to see if the event you want to occur occurs on a cell by cell basis. Like if you wanted to see how many possibilities are there to get a sum of 12. We know there is only one way, that is to roll a 6 and a 6. Then you would shade the top right corner cell of the grid and check the other ones (for more complicated events). Then the probability is just the number of shaded cells divided by the total number of cells.

But, since you can probably just count the events, how many ways are there to roll any two numbers, if the order matters, there are 36 possibilities (6 x 6 grid). You could roll 4 then 6, 6 then 4, 5 then 5, 5 then 6, 6 then 5, and 6 then 6. There are 6 possibilities with a sum more than 9 and 36 total, so the probability of that one event is 6/36 or 1/6. Try out the last one ;)

What is the slope of the line through (-1,8) and (3,-4)?
laila [671]

Hey there!!

How do we find slopes ?

Slope = \frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

We are given with two co-ordinates :

(-1,8) and (3,-4)  

Hence, the slope is :

\frac{-4-8}{3+1}

... \frac{-12}{4} = -3

The slope is -3.

Hope my answer helps!
