Answer:

The slope is -2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

With this its easier to get all of the x's on one side.

distribute the -2/3 to the x and 1. Also add a 2 on each side.

Thats leaves you with y=-2/3x+4/3

You than want to make a chart of x's and y's so you know what this graph looks like

x|y

-3|(10/3)

-2|(8/3)

-1|2

0|(4/3)

1|(2/3)

2|0

3|(-2/3)

To find the slope, it's (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

So in this case, (0-2)/(2+1)

The slope is (-2/3)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

change in x (horizontal) = 4 - 1 = 3

Change in y (vertical) = 9 - 3 = 6

Slope = change in x / change in y

slope = 3 / 6 = 1/2

Passes through the points (−4, 2) and (12, 6)?

svlad2 [7]

<u>I'll assume you need to find the equation of the line that passes through those points.</u>

Answer:

$\displaystyle y-2=\frac{1}{4}(x+4)$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Equation of a Line:</u>

The equation of a line passing through points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) can be found as follows:

$\displaystyle y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}(x-x_1)$

The given points are (-4,2) and (12,6), thus:

$\displaystyle y-2=\frac{6-2}{12+4}(x+4)$

Operating:

$\displaystyle y-2=\frac{4}{16}(x+4)$

Simplifying, the equation in point-slope form is:

$\mathbf{\displaystyle y-2=\frac{1}{4}(x+4)}$

Out of 22 players in a team, 10 of them have an average height of 1.50m while another 10 have an average height of 1.48m. The re

Sonja [21]

Answer:

1.5 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the sum of all of the data in a set = average * number of data.

Therefore, the sum of the first 10 is 1.5 * 10 = 15 meters, the sum of the second 10 is 1.48 * 10 = 14.8 meters and the sum of the last 2 is 1.6 * 2 = 3.2 meters for a total of 15 + 14.8 + 3.2 = 33 meters. This means that the mean is 33 / 22 = 1.5 meters.

erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

41.18% probability of drawing a white counter or a green counter

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

In this question:

There are 3+10+4 = 17 counters.

Of those, 3+4 = 7 are white or green

7/17 = 0.4118

41.18% probability of drawing a white counter or a green counter
