Answer:

Undefined

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for slope is y1-y2/x1-x2

This is where:

y1 is the y coordinate of the first point

y2 is the y coordinate of the second point

x1 is the x coordinate of the first point

x2 is the x coordinte of the second point

Keep in mind, a point is always (x coordinate, y coordinate)

This said we can plug our values in.

8-2/-6-(-6)

Now, we simplify.

6/0

Since you can't divide a number by 0, the slope of the line would be undefined.

This happens when a line is vertical, and only goes through one x value.

Answer:

Undefined

Step-by-step explanation:

First, slope is change in y over change in x, or rise over run. Plugging these points in (y1-y2)/(x1-x2)=(2-8)/(-6--6), or -6/0. Oh no! You can't divide by 0. Therefore, the slope is undefined.

You can also see this by graphing the line, which is a straight vertical line. Vertical lines have undefined slopes.

CAN ANYONE HELP ME THANKS FOR BRAINLIEST ANSWER? Find slope ( simplest form) parallel to the line 4x+2y=3

tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

Slope = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to get it to the slope intercept form first.

2y = -4x + 3

Divide by 2

y = -2x + 3/2

Parallel means in the new slope intercept form there will still be -2x.

y = -2x + b (enter in points ( 0, 1.5 ) )

1.5 = 0 + b

b = 1.5

y = -2x + 1.5 ( just an example of a line parallel to 4x + 2y = 3 )

Answer:

1, 1/2, 1 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 1

20 divided by 18 is 1.1

So the answer is closest to 1

Question 2

9 divided by 20 is 0.45

So the answer is closest to 1/2

Question 3

7 divided by 5 is 1.4

So the answer is closest to 1 1/2

Hope this helps!

The Law of Large Numbers states that as the number of trials of an experiment increases, the experimental probability of an even

Lena [83]

The law of large number states that , if number of trials increases in an experiment , in a fair trial where each outcome has same chance of occurring or having equal probabilities,when total number of trials goes higher and higher the probabilities of each single outcome becomes approximately equal.→→In case of Experimental Probability

The Coin Possessed by Jake is a Magic coin.

Now Outcomes received by jake when he tosses the coin certain number of times.He flipped it 100 times, and found that it came up heads 64% of the time. He flipped it another 500 times, and it came up heads 57% of the time. He then flipped it 1000 times, and it came up heads 58% of the time. Then, he flipped it 1500 times, and it came up heads 62% of the time.

Based on the information provided , it appears that coin is not fair . It is Unbiased.So , if we apply law of large numbers here after number of trials will go higher and higher , the chances of coming head will be more than tail i.e theoretical probability of the magic coin coming up heads is> 50%.

To test my hypothesis i have used the information provided by Jake, which shows that coin is not fair. The probability of head has more than tail i.e by 14%, 7%,8% and 12%.

Find two integers whose sum is 10 and product is 9

Leviafan [203]

Answer:

let the numbers be x and y then by given conditions:

x + y = 10 ….. eq 1

and

xy = 9….. eq 2

from eq 2. y = 9/x

put this in eq. 1

x + 9/x = 10

x + 9= 10x

x = 1

now,

xy = 9put value of x

y = 9
