<u>Answer:</u>

The line equation that passes through the given points is 7x – y = 13

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

Two points are A(2, 1) and B(3, 8).

To find:

The line equation that passes through the given two points.

Solution:

We know that, general equation of a line passing through two points (x1, y1), (x2, y2) in point slope form is given by

\frac{(y- y1)}{(x-x_1)}= \frac{((y_2- y_1)}{(x_2- x_1 )}

{(y- y1)= \frac{((y_2- y_1)}{(x_2- x_1 )}\times(x-x_1)..........(1)

here, in our problem x1 = 3, y1 = 8, x2 = 2 and y2 = 1.

Now substitute the values in (1)

(y-8) = \frac{(1 - 8)}{(2 - 3)}\times(x- 3)

(y -8) = \frac{(- 7)}{(-1)}(x-3)

y – 8 = 7(x – 3)

y – 8 = 7x – 21  

7x – y = 21 – 8  

7x – y = 13  

Hence, the line equation that passes through the given points is 7x – y = 13

Suppose that there are five young women and six young men on an island. Each woman is willing to marry some of the men on the is
pochemuha

Answer:

Based on the current information, the last man remaining unmarried will be a choice between two

Jason marries Anna

Matt marries Elizabeth

Kevin marries Barbara

Larry marries Diane

Carol can marry either Nick or Oscar

Step-by-step explanation:

The basic method to sort which woman will be marrying which man is simple.

We have to extract the choice by comparing choices of each woman side by side and then selecting the least common one and hence sorting one by one.

First, let's name all the women and men

1. Anna

2. Barbara

3. Carol

4. Diane

5. Elizabeth

We will refer to them with the initial letter of their name . A for Anna, B for Barbara, C for Carol, D for Diane, E for Elizabeth.

The men :

1. Jason

2. Larry

3. Matt

4. Kevin

5. Oscar

6. Nick

And they will be referred as J for Jason, L for Larry, M for Matt, K for Kevin, O for Oscar  and N for Nick.

Options for A : J , L ,M

Options for B : K, L

Options for C : J, N , O

Options for D : J, L , N , O

Options for E : J, M

As we can see , no one else wants Kevin other than Barbara so :

Kevin marries Barbara

Moving onwards:

Elizabeth can marry either Jason or Matt,

Meanwhile Anna can marry either Jason , Larry or Matt  

Hence,

Matt marries Eilzabeth

as Anna has two more choices still which are Jason and Larry.

Further, seeing the options for Carol and Diane

Carol can marry either Jason, Nick or Oscar while Diane can marry Larry as well as Jason , Nick and Oscar

We can select Jason as the match for Anna as Larry is also a choice for Diane.

Hence, Jason marries Anna

Now we are left with Larry , Nick and Oscar.

Since Carol can only decide from Nick and Oscar but Diane can decide from Larry, Nick and Oscar. Larry is the ideal option for Diane

so, Larry marries Diane

Now in the end, Carol can either choose between Nick or Oscar.

If she chooses Nick to marry, Oscar is left single

If she chooses Oscar to marry, Nick is left single.

Find the 63rd term of the arithmetic sequence -1, 5, 11, ...−1,5,11,...
Ugo [173]

Answer:

a_6_3=371

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

In an <u><em>Arithmetic Sequence</em></u> the difference between one term and the next is a constant and this constant is called the common difference

we have

-1,5,11,...

Let

a_1=-1\\a_2=5\\a_3=11

a_2-a_1=5-(-1)=5+1=6

a_3-a_2=11-5=6

The common difference is d=6

We can write an Arithmetic Sequence as a rule

a_n=a_1+d(n-1)

where

a_n is the nth term                

d is the common difference

a_1 is the first term

n is the number of terms

Find the 63rd term of the arithmetic sequence

we have

n=63\\d=6\\a_1=-1

substitute

a_6_3=-1+6(63-1)

a_6_3=-1+6(62)

a_6_3=-1+372

a_6_3=371

What is the reciprocal for 2 2/5​
wariber [46]

Answer:

5/12

Step-by-step explanation:

2 2/5 = 12/5 so its reciprocal is 5/12

Reciprocals are fractions that are basically "flipped". You flip the denominator to the numerator and vice versa.
