Why might someone choose to use the y-intercept and the slope to graph a line?

2 answers:

If someone had an equation that was in slope intercept form, the y intercept and slope are easily accessible and easily calculable.

Therefore, if someone had a line that was in slope intercept form, then they would probably choose to use the y intercept and slope to graph that line.

Through: (2,2), parallel to y=x+42)

shtirl [24]

Answer:

y=x

Step-by-step explanation:

We want a line parallel to y =x+42

The slope of y =x+42 is 1

Parallel lines have the same slope

We have the slope m=1 and a point (2,2)

We can use point slope form to write a line

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y-2 = 1(x-2) point slope form

Changing to slope intercept form

y-2 = x-2

Add 2 to each side

y-2+2 = x-2+2

y=x

A parking lot contains 100 cars , k of which happen to be lemons. we select m of these cars

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Given that a parking lot contains 100 cars, k of which happen to be lemons.

This is a conditional probability question.

Let event A be that a car is tested and event B be that a car is lemon.

The probability that a car is lemon is given by $\frac{k}{100}$

The probability that a car is tested is given by $\frac{m}{100}$

The probability that a car is lemon and it is tested is given by $\frac{n}{m}$

For a conditional probability, the probablility of event A given event B is given by:

$P(A|B)= \frac{P(A\cap B)}{P(B)}$

Therefore, the probability that a car is lemon, given that it is tested is given by.

$P(lemon|tested)= \frac{P(lemon\, and\, tested)}{P(tested)} \\ \\ = \frac{ \frac{n}{m} }{ \frac{m}{100} } = \frac{n}{m} \times \frac{100}{m} = \frac{100n}{m^2}$

What is the value of the expression [-8/9]divide by [-2/3]x[-4 1/2]

Sidana [21]

Answer:

-82/3

Step-by-step explanation:

first divide -8/9 by -2/3

-8/9 ➗ -2/3 =-8/9*3/-2 =4/3

multiply 4/3 by -41/2

4/3*-41/2 = -82/3
