Answer: Probability of meeting is 0.67

Step-by-step explanation: Since each person decided to wait for 20minutes thus within an hour a maximum of 40minutes is spent waiting by both parties.Therefore, Probability of meeting will be 40mins/60mins=0.666 approximately 0.67

HELP PLZ GUYS I BEG YOU 15 PTS ITS EASYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer:

1) The linear equation in point and slope form is y - 67 = -4 × (x - 14)

2) The variables are;

a) The number of candies available = y

b) The number of days Jennifer eats the candies =

c) The slope, m = -4

3) Jennifer received 123 pieces of candies on Halloween

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The number of candies Jennifer eats everyday = 4 pieces

The number of days for which Jennifer eats the daily 4 candies = 14

The number of candies left at the end of the 14th day = 67 candies

1) We note that the rate of decrease in the number of candies = 4 candies/day

Therefore, the slope of the linear equation is m = -4

The y-intercept = The initial amount of candies Jennifer has = c = 67 + 14× 4 = 123 candies

The linear equation in point and slope form is given as follows;

y - 67 = -4 × (x - 14)

2) The variables are;

a) The y-value represents the number of candies available on a specific day

b) The x value represents the number of days Jennifer eats the candies'

c) The slope = The rate of decrease in the number of candies per day = -4

3) The number of candies Jennifer receives on Halloween is given by the y-intercept of the straight line equation as follows;

y - 67 = -4 × (x - 14)

y - 67 = -4·x + 56

y = -4·x + 56 + 67 = -4·x + 123

y = -4·x + 123

Comparing the above equation, with the general form of the straight line equation, y = m·x + c, where, the constant term, c = The y-intercept, we have;

The y-intercept of the equation y = -4·x + 123 = 123 = The initial amount of candies Jennifer received on Halloween.
