What you want to do here is take this information and plug it into point-slope form. any time you're given a point and a slope, you generally want to plug it into this equation: y - y1 = m(x - x1).

in this equation, m is your slope and (x1, y1) is a given point. plug in your info--slope of -3 and (-5, 2).

y - 2 = -3(x + 5)

that is the equation of your line. however, if you want to graph it, this doesn't really make much sense to you. convert it to slope-intercept form, y = mx + b, by solving for y.

y - 2 = -3(x + 5) ... distribute -3
y - 2 = -3x - 15 ... add 2
y = -3x - 13 is your equation.

to graph this, and any other y = mx + b equation, you want to start with your y-intercept if it's present. your y intercept here is -13, which means the line you wasn't to graph crosses the y-axis at y = -13, or (0, -13). put a point there.

after you've plotted that point, you use your slope to graph more. remember that your slope is "rise over run"--you rise up/go down however many units, you run left/right however many units. if your slope is -3, you want to go down 3 units, then go to the right 1 unit. remember that whole numbers have a 1 beneath them as a fraction. -3/1 is your rise over 1.

Diego is thinking of two positive numbers. He says, 'If we triple the first number and double the second number, the sum is 34.'
UNO [17]

1st number: 0

2nd number: 17

Answer

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+2y=34 x is the first number, y is the second.

1/2x+2y=34 multiply each number by two to get rid of the integer by the variable x.

x+4y=68 solve for x.

x=68-4y add this into the first equation to solve for variable y.

3(68-4y)+2y=34 solve for y.

204-10y=34

-10y= -170

y=17

now to solve for x

x= 68-4(17)

x= 0

For students who first enrolled in two year public institutions in a recent​ semester, the proportion who earned a​ bachelor's d
kondaur [170]

Answer:

Null hypothesis =  H_0:p=0.395

Alternate hypothesis =H_a:p>0.395

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : In a recent​ semester, the proportion who earned a​ bachelor's degree within six years was 0.395.

The president of a certain college believes that the proportion of students who enroll in her institution have a higher completion rate.

To Find : Determine the null and alternative hypotheses.

Solution:

In a recent​ semester, the proportion who earned a​ bachelor's degree within six years was<u> 0.395. </u>

Claim : the proportion of students who enroll in her institution <u>have a higher completion rate.</u>

So,null hypothesis =  H_0:p=0.395

Alternate hypothesis =H_a:p>0.395

Two cards are selected from a standard deck of 52 playing cards. The first card is not replaced before the second card is select
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

Probability is:   $ \frac{\textbf{13}}{\textbf{51}} $

Step-by-step explanation:

From a deck of 52 cards there are 26 black cards. (Spades and Clubs).

Also, there are 26 red cards. (Hearts and Diamonds).

First, we determine the probability of drawing a black card.

P(drawing a black card) = $ \frac{number \hspace{1mm} of  \hspace{1mm} black  \hspace{1mm} cards}{total  \hspace{1mm} number  \hspace{1mm} of  \hspace{1mm} cards} $  $ = \frac{26}{52} = \frac{\textbf{1}}{\textbf{2}} $

Now, since we don't replace the drawn card, there are only 51 cards.

But the number of red cards is still 26,

∴ P(drawing a red card) = $ \frac{number  \hspace{1mm} of  \hspace{1mm} red  \hspace{1mm} cards}{total  \hspace{1mm} number  \hspace{1mm}of  \hspace{1mm} cards} $  $ = \frac{26}{51}  $

Now, the probability of both black and red card = $ \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{26}{51} $

$ = \frac{\textbf{13}}{\textbf{51}} $

Hence, the answer.
