First calculate the function of x-2y=6: x-2y=6 | - x -2y=6-x | ÷ (-2) y=0.5x-3
Now you have the function. Because the slope you search is parallel to this one, the slope is the same (in this case 0.5). A slope of 0.5 means for 2 steps to the right go one up. To define the function you are searching you have to find out the y intercept. For this take your point (-2|4). Now go as many steps to the right until you reach the y intercept or x=0 in this case you need 2 steps. So for 2 steps right you go one up. Now you have the y intercept (5). The resulting function is: f(x) = 0.5+6.
Hello! So, you have 8 flowers. 2 are purple, 2 are red, and 4 are pink. That means, there are 4/8 or 1/2 Chance that the first flower to bloom will be pink. The probability is 1/2.
