You divide the difference of the y-coordinates of 2points on a line by the difference of the x-coordinates of the same 2points

Answer:

There's a formula: \frac{y_{1} -y_{2}}{x_{1}-x_{2}}

Step-by-step explanation:

You take 2 points from the line, and plug it in.

For example, if the 2 points on a line were (1, 4) and (2, 7) you would set it up like this...

\frac{2-1}{7-4}

...then solve the top and then solve the bottom so it becomes a fraction:

\frac{1}{3}

One thing is that is that if the Y1 is from the <em>first</em> coordinate, then X1 should also be form the 1st coordinate

Check the picture below.

notice, we have three pair of sides, let's add them all up to get the area

\stackrel{\textit{left and right}}{2(8\cdot 14)}+\stackrel{\textit{front and back}}{2(3.5\cdot 8)}+\stackrel{\textit{top and bottom}}{2(3.5\cdot 14)}\implies 378~in^2

A jar contains 6 yellow marbles, 4 black marbles, and 2 purple marbles. Two marbles are picked at random, without replacement. W
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

The probability of selecting both yellow is 5/22.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the number of yellow marbles = 6

Black marbles = 4

Purple marble = 2

Now find the total number of marbles in the jar.

Thus total marbles = Yellow marbles + Black marbles  + Purples marble

Now insert the values in the above formula.

Total marbles = 6 + 4 + 2

Total marbles = 12

The probability of 2 yellow marble:

= \frac{6}{12} \times \frac{5}{11} \\= \frac{5}{22}

Thus, the probability of selecting both yellow is 5/22.

The sum of three consecutive numbers is 276. What is the smallest of these intengers?
shtirl [24]

Answer:

91

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the smallest one:

● x is the first number

● x+1 is the second number

● x+2 is the third number

The sum of these numbers is 276

● x+(x+1)+(x+2) =276

● x+x+1+x+2 = 276

● 3x + 3 = 276

Substract 3 from both sides:

● 3x+3-3 = 276-3

● 3x = 273

Divide both sides by 3

● (3x)/3 = 273/3

● x = 91

So the smallest one is 91

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

If x + 5 = 10, then x would have to be 5 because 5 + 5 = 10.

The way you would solve this would be:

x + 5 = 10

subtract 5 from both sides of the equation

x + 5 - 5 = 10 - 5

simplify:

x = 5
