3/5 is the probability that he will win, you must find a fraction which adds to make 100%.
2/5 would be the fraction for his probability to lose.
0.4 or 40%.
The slope is given as m = 7m=7 and the yy-intercept as b = - \,4b=−4. Substituting into the slope-intercept formula y = mx + by=mx+b, we have
since m=7 and b=-4, we can substitute that into the slope-intercept form of a line to get y=mx+b → y=7x-4
The slope is positive thus the line is increasing or rising from left to right, but passing through the yy-axis at point \left( {0, - \,4} \right)(0,−4).

Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
We will use the 2 coordinates marked on the graph as the reference.
The coordinates are:
A(4,-2)
B(0,3)
We know that the standard form for equation of line is:
y = mx+c
where m is the slope of the equation
and c is the y-intercept.
Very clearly, the y-intercept is where the line intercepts the y line.
and in this case, y-intercept = c = 3.
Now we know that the equation of line is now
y = mx + 3
To find m, the slope, we can use the 2 above coordinates.
slope of line = 
(Note: There is a 2nd way to find the slope in this case, let me know if you are interested to find out.)
Equation of line: 
Therefore the answer is D.
Answer:
Cleanser that costs 50 cents is 1400 liters, Cleanser that costs 80 cents is 600 liters.
Step-by-step explanation:
We can solve this by using <em>simultaneous equations</em>:
- Let us express the question in terms of equations
Let a be cleanser at 50 cents and let b be the cleanser at 80 cents.
Equation 1: 0.5a + 0.8b = 0.59(a+b)
Equation 2: a + b = 2000
From equation 2, a = 2000 - b (Let's call this equation 3)
2. Substituting equations 2 and 3 in Equation 1:
0.5a + 0.8b = 0.59(a+b)
0.5(2000 - b) + 0.8b = 0.59(2000)
1000 - 0.5b + 0.8b = 1180
0.3b = 180
b = 600
Substitute in equation 3:
a = 2000 - 600
a = 1400
As a note, I formed equation 1 because I know for a fact the cost per liter of a and b. I also know it is sold at 0.59 cents per liter. We are selling 2000 liters in this instance, therefore 0.59(2000) = 1180, which in this case is the selling price.
Your thoughts are correct; Ned loses 14 points overall.
The reason the correctly answered questions do not factor into the answer is because that is not what the question is asking. Correct answers are not even mentioned :)
