Take the number of lemon candies in the bag and divide it by the total number of candies there are. 

The total number of candies: 6 cherry + 3 orange + 2 lemon = 11 candies
The number of lemon candies: 2 

The probability is 2/11. You can actually divide it and then figure out the decimal value or if you want to the percentage then you can just multiply the decimal value by 100.

Write the equation of the line with x-intercept -2 and y-intercept -1 in slope-intercept form
eduard

The x-intercept of -2 gives us an idea that point (-2,0) if found along the line. The y-intercept of -1, tells us that point (0,-1), this also tells us that b = -1.

Now that we have two points, we can solve for slope m

\begin{gathered} m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} \\ \text{Given two points} \\ (-2,0)\rightarrow(x_1,y_1) \\ (0,-1)\rightarrow(x_2,y_2) \\  \\ \text{Substitute} \\ m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} \\ m=\frac{-1-0}{0-(-2)} \\ m=-\frac{1}{2} \end{gathered}

Now that we have both m and b. Substitute these values to the slope intercept form

\begin{gathered} \text{Slope intercept form is} \\ y=mx+b \\ \text{where} \\ m\text{ is the slope} \\ b\text{ is the y-intercept} \\  \\ \text{Substitute the values from before and we get} \\ y=-\frac{1}{2}x-1 \end{gathered}

<h3>Volume of the cylinder:</h3>

v = \pi {r}^{2} h

v = 3.14 \times  {2}^{2}  \times 3

v = 37.68 \:  {cm}^{3}

<h3>Volume of the rectangular prism:</h3>

v = lwh

v = 6 \times 5 \times 7

v = 210 \:  {cm}^{3}

<h3>Total volume:</h3>

v = 37.68 + 210

Can someone help me at this
anygoal [31]

Answer:

a - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter = side 1 + side 2 + side 3

So

6a + 3 = 2(a + 3) + (3a - 1) + side 3

side 3 = (6a + 3) - (2a + 6) - (3a - 1)

side 3 = 6a - 2a - 3a + 3 - 6 + 1 = a - 2
