Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's first convert this to numbers. When a number is decreased by a certain amount, that is the same as saying that something is subtracted from it. Therefore:

a-7=2

Add 7 to both sides:

a-7+7=2+7

a=9

Hope this helps!

Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

If a number (Let's call it x) has been subtracted by 7 (x - 7) then to find the previous number you just do the opposite. Let's call the end result y. 2 + 7 = x (Or y + 7 = x). <u>2 + 7 = 9.</u>

Jane draws a line in the coordinate plane that passes through the points (2,3) and (6,9)
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

y=x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the line of the equation, use the slope formula to find the slope.

Slope formula is: y2-y1/x2-x1

9-3/6-2= 3/4

Once you have the slope, use that and one of the coordinates to put the equation in point-slope form.

Point-slope form is: y-y1=m(x-x1), with m representing slope and y1 and x1 representing the x and y coordinates.

y-3=1(x-2)

With the equation in point-slope form, you can now distribute 1 to x-2 and simplify to put it in slope-intercept form.

y-3=1x-2

y=x+1

What is the probability of throwing a number greater than 4 when rolling a number cube that has sides labeled 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6?
Leona [35]
What is probability rolling a number greater than 4?

The only numbers there are is 5 and 6.
That means that there are 2 outcomes out of 6 total outcomes.
That would be 2/6.
Divide the the top and bottom by 2.
In simplest form it would be 1/3.
2/6=1/3

The answer is 1/3. The probability of throwing a number greater than 4 is 1/3.
