Shiela is 0.61 meters taller than her son.
Answer: k=1
Step-by-step explanation:
4k-3=-2k+3
take -3 and 3 and add them up on one side and change the sign
4k=-2k+3
+3
4k=-2k+6
take the -2k and change the sign and add to 4k
4k=6
2k
6k=6
now divide both sides with x
6k/6= 6/6
k= 1
Answer:
D. (6,3)
Step-by-step explanation:
To the find which point can be located on the line you will have to find the point-slope form
The formula for point-slope form is y=mx+b
m is slope
b is y-intercept
Since we already know the slope we can just replace it:
y=1/2x+b
Now we need to find the y-intercept
We can do this by distributing them with (4,2)
As you remember in point the digits are in x and y
(x,y) so we can tell that 4 is x and 2 is y
Now we can substitute x with 4 and y with 2
2=1/2(4)+b
Multiply 1/2 and 4
which is 2
2=2+b
Thus b=0
So the slope intercept form is y=1/2x
Now we can substitute the other points:
For (5,2):
2=5/2
Which is incorrect since 2 does not equal 5/2
For (2,3):
3=1/2(2)
Which is
3=1
Which is incorrect since 3 does not equal 1
For (3,4)
4=1/2(3)
Which is
4=3/2
Which is incorrect since 4 does not equal 3/2
For (6,3)
3=1/2(6)
Which is
3=3
Which is correct since 3 does equal to 3
Hope this helps!
Assuming that the probability of boys and girls is equal (in reality slightly more boys than girls are born), the probability is 1/2, simply because the older girl's gender is given and therefore not a part of the probability.
This question comes from the 'boy or girl paradox', a.k.a. the Mrs Smith Problem.
