Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You can read the slope right away.

y = 0.5x + b 1/2 = 0.5

The point will determine the y intercept

2 = 0.5*10 + b

2 = 5 + b

2-5 = b

b = - 3

The line is y = 0.5x - 3

Dvinal [7]

Answer:

20%

Step-by-step explanation:

A pair of jeans cost $45 before the sale.

The sale is taking $9 off of the original price.

Then

$45 - 100%

$9 - x%

Write a proportion:

$\dfrac{45}{9}=\dfrac{100}{x}$

Cross multiply:

$45\cdot x=9\cdot 100\\ \\45x=900\\ \\x=\dfrac{900}{45}\\ \\x=20\%$

Two non-simultaneous events have an equal likelihood of occurring (50%). If the events are independent of each other, what is th

BARSIC [14]

There are 4 possibilities:

1) No event happens
2) event A happens, not event B
3) event B happens, not event A
4) both events happen

seeing as there is a 50% chance of either event happening, I would assume that all 4 possibilities have an equal chance of happening

so if there are 4 events, then each one is 25% likely.

So the probability if them both occurring is 25%
