Answer:

if \ given \ 2 \ points\ are\ (x_1, y_1) \ and\ (x_2, y_2) \\ then \ slope \ is \ given \ as \ \\m = \frac{(y_2 -y_1)}{x_2 -x_1} \\

Step-by-step explanation:

I think now you can figure it out. let me know if needed more clarification. It will help you to get started

Answer:

slope = - \frac{8}{11}

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the slope m use the slope formula

m = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (20, 8) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (9, 16)

m = \frac{16-8}{9-20} = \frac{8}{-11} = - \frac{8}{11}

What is 64 minutes as mixed number? (i'm pretty sure it might be
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

1 1/15

Step-by-step explanation:

64 minutes is the same thing as 64/60 minutes.

64 goes into 60 once. 64-60=4, so that would be your numerator. You would keep the denominator as 60, since it's still out of 60.

If you put those numbers together your fraction would be

1 and 4/60, if you want to simplify, 60/4=15, so 1 and 1/15 would be your fraction.

Hope this helped!

A bag of potatoes weights 30 lb. If 74% of a potato is water, how many pounds of water are there in the bag?
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer: There are 22.2 pounds of water in the bag.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we simply have to multiply the total weight of the bag by the water percentage in decimal form (divided by 100).

Mathematically speaking:

30 x (74/100) = 30 x 0.74 =22.2 pounds

There are 22.2 pounds of water in the bag.

An airline is planning its staffing needs for the next year. If a new route is​ approved, it will hire 837 new employees. If a n
dusya [7]

Considering a discrete distribution, it is found that the expected number of new employees to be hired by the​ airline is of 446.16.

<h3>What is the mean of a discrete distribution?</h3>

The expected value of a discrete distribution is given by the <u>sum of each outcome multiplied by it's respective probability</u>.

In this problem, considering the situation described in the text, the distribution is given by:

  • P(X = 837) = 0.37.
  • P(X = 199) = 0.63.

Hence, the expected value is given by:

E(X) = 0.37(867) + 0.63(199) = 446.16.

A loan of $8,000 is paid back in two years in monthly payments of $400. The percentage interest on the loan was
Serhud [2]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of months in two years is 24 months.

Now, with a repayment plan of $400 per month, the total amount returned will be 400 * 24 = $9,600

Now, $8,000 was borrowed but $9,600 was returned

The amount of interest is 9600-8000 = 1600

So what percentage of 8,000 is 1600?

1600/8000 * 100 = 16/80 * 100 = 1/5 * 100 = 20%
