Answer:

y = (-2/3)x-3

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello:

equation is the line is : y = ax+b        a is a slope

y = (-2/3)x+b

passing through the point (−3;−1) :   -1 =(-2/3)(-3)+b    so : b = -3

y = (-2/3)x-3

second solution : you can verify (-3 ; -1) in the equation : y = (-2/3)x-3

lesya692 [45]
J + i + t = 36
j = 2i
t = j + 1.....t = 2i + 1

(2i + 1) + i + (2i) = 36
5i + 1 = 36
5i = 36 - 1
5i = 35
i = 35/5
i = 7 <=== Inez downloaded 7 songs

j = 2i = 2(7) = 14 <==Jane downloaded 14 songs
t = 2i + 1 = 2(7) + 1 = 15 <== Tracy downloaded 15 songs

Please help explanation if possible
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

y=-3x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

concepts: y=mx+b is slope intercept equation formula

m=slope

b= y intercept

Therefore we need to find the slope and y intercept

first find slope

m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

let y2 be 2

let y1 be -4

let x2 be 1

let x1 be 3

\frac{2-(--4)}{1-3}

6/-2 = -3

m=-3

slope is -3

y= -3x+ b

we need find y intercept now

just plug in (1,2) into that equation

2=-3(1)+b

b=5

y=-3x+5

A weather report said there is a 60% chance of rain on Monday, and a 30% chance of rain on Tuesday. Based on the report, what is
sergey [27]

Answer:

The answer is 18 percent, or 9/50.

Step-by-step explanation:

We first convert the chance of rain on Monday into a fraction.

60%=60/100=3/5.

We then convert the chance of rain on Tuesday into a fraction.

30%=30/100=3/10.

Because the two events are independent(i.e. If it rains on Tuesday doesn't depend on if it rains on Monday) we multiply them together to get the probability they both happen. That chance is:

3/5 * 3/10=(3*3)/(5*10)=9/50(fraction form)=18/100=18%(percent form)

Find the sum of three consecutive odd integers where x is the greatest integer
myrzilka [38]
X + (x − 2) + (x − 4) = ? ;  In which
<span>
x + x </span>− 2 + x − 4 ; 

Combine the "like terms" ; 

  x + x + x = 3x ; 

  − 2 − 4  =  −6 ; 

So we have:  "3x  − 6" as the sum. ;
___________________________
The sum of three consecutive odd integers, in which "x" is the greatest integer;  is:  "3x − 6" .
_____________________________________________
Note:  The three consecutive odd integers, from least to greatest, are:

"(x − 4)" , "(x − 2)" , and "x" .

The sum is:  "(3x  − 6)<span>" .
</span>_____________________________________________
Note:  "(3x  − 6)" factors into:  " 3(x −2)" .

Note that:  " (x − 2) " is the second integer.
______________________________________________
So the sum total, which is:  "(3x  −  6)" ;  is 3 (three) times the value of the second integer; that is, "3 (x − 2)" .
