It's a COMPOUND ROBABILITY:
P(Raining) =0.4 AND P(Late) = 0.1
P(Raining ∩ Late) = 0.4 x 0.1 = 0.04 = 4%

Find the equation of this line. y= [?]x+[?]

DochEvi [55]

Answer:

$y=3x-4$

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Slope-intercept form: $y=mx+b$ where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (the value of y when x=0)

1) Determine the slope (m)

$m=\displaystyle\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$ where two points that fall on the line are $(x_1,y_1)$ and $(x_2,y_2)$

On the graph, two points are highlighted for us: (0,-4) and (2,2). Plug these into the formula:

$m=\displaystyle\frac{2-(-4)}{2-0}\\\\m=\displaystyle\frac{2+4}{2}\\\\m=\displaystyle\frac{6}{2}\\\\m=3$

Therefore, the slope of the line is 3. Plug this into $y=mx+b$ :

$y=3x+b$

2) Determine the y-intercept (b)

$y=3x+b$

Recall that the y-intercept occurs when x=0. Given the point (0,-4), the y-intercept is therefore -4. Plug this into $y=3x+b$ :

$y=3x+(-4)\\y=3x-4$

I hope this helps!

For the straight line defined by the points (2,55) and (4, 87), determine the slope (m) and y-intercept?

mamaluj [8]

Answer:

Slope(m) = 16

Y intercept (c) = 23

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Points : (x1, y1) = (2, 55)

(x2, y2) = (4, 87)

Using two point form to calculate slope:

$m = \frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

$m = \frac{87-55}{4-2}$

m = 16

To find y intercept:

Take any one point ans slope :

Using slope point formula:

y = mx + c

87 = 16(4) + c

Solving for c:

c = 23

What is the rate of change of y=-4/9x+5

WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

Rate of change of y is $- \frac{4}{9}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$y = - \frac{4}{9} x + 5 \\ \\ differentiating \: with \: respect \: to \: x \\ \\ \frac{dy}{dx} = - \frac{4}{9} \frac{d}{dx} x + \frac{d}{dx} 5 \\ \\ \frac{dy}{dx} = - \frac{4}{9} .1 + 0 \\ \\ \huge \red{\frac{dy}{dx} = - \frac{4}{9} } \\ \\ rate \: of \: change \: of \: y =- \frac{4}{9}$
