The probability of selecting a yellow marble is #of yellow marbles/total # of marbles= 6/30 or .2 or 20%
If there are 300 marbles in the bag, a good estimate for the total number of red marbles in the bag is 90.
9/30=.3 = the percentage of red marbles
.3(300) = 90
Take any of the valid pairs of points, use the formula
rate of change = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
Say we use P1=(0,21.4), P2=(3,19)
x1=0, y1=21.4
x2=3, y2=19
Rate of change = (21.4-19)/(0-3)=2.4/(-3) = -0.8 sq. ft/in of liquid
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
5. You are asked to write an equation of the line in slope-intercept form, so you need to determine the slope of the line and the y-intercept.
You're lucky. One of the points, (0,1), has an x-coordinate of 0, so you know that the y-intercept is 1.
Use the coordinates of the points to determine the slope of the line.
slope = (difference in y-coordinates)/(difference in x-coordinates) = (10-1)/(3-0) = 9/3 = 3
The slope-intercept equation of the line is y = 3x+1

7. When x = 0, function A = 0 and function B = 3, so function B has a greater initial value.
First thing you should do is reduce coefficients.
1st equation has all multiples of '2'. Divide by 2
---> x +3y = -6
2nd equation has multiples of 5. Divide by 5.
---> x - y = 2
Now elimination part is easier.
Eliminate 'x' variable by subtracting 2nd equation from 1st.
x + 3y = -6
-(x - y = 2)
----------------------
4y = -8
Solve for 'y'
4y = -8
y = (-8)/4 = -2
Substitute value for 'y' back into 2nd equation:
x - (-2) = 2
x + 2 = 2
x = 0
Solution to system is:
x=0, y =-2
Here is the answer, with a picture of how you do it:)
