Answer:

There are 15 girls in the class.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 36 students in Mrs Keaton's sixth grade class.

If \frac{5}{12} fraction of the class are girls then we have to calculate the number of girls in the class.

Since number of girls in the class = \frac{5}{12} of 36

                                                        = \frac{5}{12}\times 36

                                                        = 5×3

                                                        = 15 girls

Therefore, number of girls in the class is 15.

What is the equation of the line, in slope-intercept form, that passes through (3,-1) and (-1, 5)?
Dimas [21]

Answer:

2y = -3x+7

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinates are (3,-1) and (-1,5)

<u><em>Finding the slope :</em></u>

Slope = \frac{rise}{run}

Slope = \frac{5+1}{-1-3}

Slope = \frac{6}{-4}

Slope = -\frac{3}{2}

<u><em>Now Finding y-intercept.</em></u>

For this, we'll take any point

Let it be (3,-1)

So,

Point = (x,y) = (3,-1)

=> x = 3, y = -1

<u><em>Putting in slope intercept form to get b</em></u>

=> y = mx+b

=> -1 = (3)(-\frac{3}{2}) + b

=> b =  -1 +  \frac{9}{2}

=> b = \frac{7}{2}

<u><em>Putting m and b in the slope intercept form to get the required equation of line</em></u>

=> y = mx+b

=> y = \frac{-3x+7}{2}

=> 2y = -3x+7
