Answer: y = 10 + x / 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The probability of an 8th grader winning is : 14/42 which reduces to 1/3
the simulation would be : # 3 <====
because u will have 6 equal sections on ur spinner...with each section representing 7 people
one section representing 9th graders...so their is 7 of them
2 sections representing 8th graders....so their is 7 * 2 = 14 of them
and 3 sections representing 7th graders....7 * 3 = 21 of them
<span>y = slope*x + y-intercept;
</span>We can rewrite our equation in a shorter form : y = mx + b;
y = x + 2 ; m1 = 2 and b1 = 2;
y = -x + 6; m2 = -1 and b2 = 6;
<span>Set the two equations for y equal to each other:
</span>x + 2 = -x + 6 ;
<span>Solve for x. This will be the x-coordinate for the point of intersection:
</span>2x = 4;
x = 2;
<span>Use this x-coordinate and plug it into either of the original equations for the lines and solve for y. This will be the y-coordinate of the point of intersection:
</span>y = 2 + 2 ;
y = 4;
<span>The point of intersection for these two lines is (2 , 4).</span>
