Find the slope of the line that goes through the given points (8,5) (6,7)

To find the slope of a line that goes through given points with known coordinates, you divide the subtraction of the y of the second point minus the y of the first point, by the subtraction of the x of the second point minus the x of the first point:
m = (yB-yA) / (xB-xA)

Let A(8,5) and B(6,7).
With yB = 7; yA = 5; xB = 6; xA = 8
m = (7-5) / (6-8)
m = 2/-2
m = -1

So the slope of the line that goes through the given points (8,5) and (6,7) is m = -1.

I've added a pic of the line with both points under the answer.

Hope this Helps! :)

Math the expression to its side
adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2^-4 = 1/(2x2x2x2)= 1/16

2^5= 2x2x2x2x2= 32

5^3 = 5x5x5= 125

5^-2 = 1/(5x5)= 1/25

. A factory manufactures widgets using three machines, A, B, and C. Of the total output, machine A is responsible for 30%, machi
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

0.545 = 54.5% probability that it came from machine A

Step-by-step explanation:

Bayes Theorem:

Two events, A and B.

P(B|A) = \frac{P(B)*P(A|B)}{P(A)}

In which P(B|A) is the probability of B happening when A has happened and P(A|B) is the probability of A happening when B has happened.

In this question:

Event A: Defective.

Event B: Coming from machine A.

Machine A is responsible for 30%

This means that P(B) = 0.3

10% of the output from machine A is defective

This means that P(B|A) = 0.1

Probability of being defective:

Machine A is responsible for 30%. Of those, 10% are defective.

Machine B is responsible for 20%. Of those, 5% are defective.

Machine C is responsible for 100 - (30+20) = 50%. Of those, 3% are defective. Then

P(A) = 0.3*0.1 + 0.2*0.05 + 0.5*0.03 = 0.055

Finally:

P(B|A) = \frac{P(B)*P(A|B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.3*0.1}{0.055} = 0.545

0.545 = 54.5% probability that it came from machine A

In preparation for the Senior Prom, 8 seniors got together and decided to travel in style and rent a limousine. They investigate
tankabanditka [31]
First we need to calculate the total cost.

The seniors will rent limousine from 8:00 pm till 1:00 am. So total time of rent = 5 hours

Total charges = Charges of first 3 hours + Charges of next 2 hours + Tip
So,
Total charges = $180 + 2($30) +$20 = $260

Thus the total amount the 8 seniors will have to pay is $260. The amount each senior will have to pay is $260/8 = $32.5

Therefore, each student will have to pay $32.5

Help Me With Math Guys REALLY NEED HELP
ad-work [718]
The question is ambiguous.

A is right if the second hour is in terms of the original amount (16 grams). That is not how it should be done, but there is nothing in the problem restricting us from doing it that way.

B is right the way most people would do the problem. I would say you should accept this as the right answer. The 4.5% is taken away from what was left after the first hour. I would do it that way left to my own devices.

C. The % conversions are not correct. Those conversions are 35% and 45%
C is not even in contention for being right.

D Same problem as C
