Mathematics

Answer:

y = \frac{4}{5} x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 5, - 7) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (5, 1)

m = \frac{1+7}{5+5} = \frac{8}{10} = \frac{4}{5}, thus

y = \frac{4}{5} x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation

Using (5, 1), then

1 = 4 + c ⇒ c = 1 - 4 = - 3

y = \frac{4}{5} x - 3 ← equation of line

Anna, Beth and Colleen are softball players. This season, Anne had 65 base hits in 160 at-bats. Beth batting average was 0.399,
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

Anne is the best hitter as she has the best hitting average of 0.406

Step-by-step explanation:

Anne hits 65 bases out of 160 at - bats.

Beth's betting average = 0.399

Collin's hit = 40%

Now, we need to convert all the three hitting rates into same parameters to compare them with each other.

Average hit rate of Anne = \frac{\textrm{Total numberof base}}{\textrm{Total number of  at - bats}}

= \frac{65}{160}  = 0.406

⇒The betting average of Anne = 0.406

Now, The hit - rate of Collin = 40%

Converting the percentage rate into decimal, we get the hit rate of Collin

= \frac{40}{100}  = 0.40

Hence, we get that Hitting Average of :

<u>Anne = 0.406</u>,  Beth = 0.3999 and Collin = 0.400

Hence, from the above data Anne is the best hitter as she has the best hitting average of 0.406.
