What is an equation of the line that passes through the points (-6, -2) and

den301095 [7]

Answer:

The equation of line is: $\mathbf{4x-3y=-18}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find an equation of the line that passes through the points (-6, -2) and (-3, 2)?

The equation of line in slope-intercept form is: $y=mx+b$

where m is slope and b is y-intercept.

We need to find slope and y-intercept.

Finding Slope

Slope can be found using formula: $Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

We have $x_1=-6,y_1=-2, x_2=-3, y_2=2$

Putting values and finding slope

$Slope=\frac{2-(-2)}{-3-(-6)}\\Slope=\frac{2+2}{-3+6} \\Slope=\frac{4}{3}$

So, we get slope: $m=\frac{4}{3}$

Finding y-intercept

Using point (-6,-2) and slope $m=\frac{4}{3}$ we can find y-intercept

$y=mx+b\\-2=\frac{4}{3}(-6)+b\\-2=4(-2)+b\\-2=-8+b\\b=-2+8\\b=6$

So, we get y-intercept b= 6

Equation of required line

The equation of required line having slope $m=\frac{4}{3}$ and y-intercept b = 6 is

$y=mx+b\\y=\frac{4}{3}x+6$

Now transforming in fully reduced form:

$y=\frac{4x+6*3}{3} \\y=\frac{4x+18}{3} \\3y=4x+18\\4x-3y=-18$

So, the equation of line is: $\mathbf{4x-3y=-18}$

Find the probability. An IRS auditor randomly selects 3 tax returns (without replacement) from 47 returns of which 5 contain err

grin007 [14]

Number of returns = 47
Number of returns that contain errors = 5
Number of returns that does not contain error = 47 - 5 = 42

P(selecting none that contains error in the unreplaced selection) = 42/47 x 41/46 x 40/45 = 68880 / 97290 = 0.708

option C is the correct answer.

Estimate the area of a circle with a radius of 21 meters. Use 22/7 for pi. (1 point)

V125BC [204]

A= $\pi$ $r^{2}$

A=( $\frac{22}{7}$ )( $21^{2}$ )

A=( $\frac{22}{7}$ )(441)

A= $\frac{22}{7}$ )( $\frac{441}{1}$ )

A= $\frac{9702}{7}$

A=1386 square meters

The answer is B.
