Answer:

7/12

Step-by-step explanation:

If the probability of winning a race is 5/12, the odds in favor of winning the race is 7/12.

Probability of winning a race: 5/12 or a 5 out of 12 chance.

12 - 5 = 7

Numerator = 7

The denominator would stay 12.

Denominator = 12

Therefore, the odds of winning the race is 7/12.

write the equation of the line, in standard form, that has an x-intercept of 2 and is parallel to 2x+y=-5. include your work in
Readme [11.4K]
Parallel to 2x+y=-5
2x+y-2x=-5-2x
y=-2x-5
y=mx+b
Slope: m=-2

As the line is parallel must have the same slope:
m=-2
And it has an x-intercept of 2: when x=2, y=0→Point: P1=(2,0)=(x1,y1)
x1=2, y1=0

y-y1=m(x-x1)
y-0=(-2)(x-2)
y=-2x+4
In standard form:
y+2x=-2x+2x+4
2x+y=4

Answer: The equation of the line, in standard form, that passes through the origin and is parallel to x+y=6 is x+y=0
