Answer:

Given points are ( -2 , -5 ) and slope ( m) = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

y - y1 = m ( x - x1)

y + 5 = -4 ( x + 2 )

y + 5 = -4x - 8

4x + y +5 + 8 = 0

4x + y +13 = 0 

y = -4x - 13

which is the required equation

Find the circumference of a circle with radius, r = 6.8m. Give your answer rounded to 1 DP.

Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

42.7 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The Circumference of a circle is found by multiplying the radius of the circle by 2π. Here the radius is 6.8 m. The circumference of this circle is

C = 2π(6.8 m) = 13.6π m, or (to 1 decimal place, 42.7 m.

the price of a dress is $40.00. it went to sale at a discount of 25%. if the sales tax is 6% what is the final cost of the dress

Delvig [45]

So first you figure out what 25% of $40.00 is whitch would be $30.00. Then what i think you would do next is add 6% of the cost of the dress. 6% of $30.00 is $1.80. so $30.00 + $1.80 = $31.80 dollors for the dress.

Given a segment with endpoints A and B, What figure can you construct using the steps below?

RoseWind [281]

I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is option A. Given a segment with endpoints A and B and the steps given above, the figure that you can construct would be a perpendicular bisector. The perpendicular bisector of a line segment can be constructed using a compass by drawing circles centered at and with radius and connecting their two intersections.

in a city school of 1,200 students, 40% of the students are on the honor roll, 60% have a part-time job, and 22% are on the hono

Alexus [3.1K]

Let
A = event that the student is on the honor roll
B = event that the student has a part-time job
C = event that the student is on the honor roll and has a part-time job

We are given
P(A) = 0.40
P(B) = 0.60
P(C) = 0.22
note: P(C) = P(A and B)

We want to find out P(A|B) which is "the probability of getting event A given that we know event B is true". This is a conditional probability

P(A|B) = [P(A and B)]/P(B)
P(A|B) = P(C)/P(B)
P(A|B) = 0.22/0.6
P(A|B) = 0.3667 which is approximate

Convert this to a percentage to get roughly 36.67% and this rounds to 37%

Final Answer: 37%
