<span>3 of the 20 toothbrushes are defective, so the initial probability of selecting a defective toothbrush on the first try is 3/20. After that, there will be 2 defective toothbrushes in the remaining 19, so the probability of selecting one of those on the 2nd try will be 2/19. To get the probability of those two events happening sequentially, we multiply the two probabilities. Thus (3/20)*(2/19) = 6/380 = 0.0157, or about 1.6%.</span>

I need this immediately!! Put the equation in standard form with a positive X coefficient. Y + 6 = 3/2 ( x - 4 ) HELP!! ​
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in standard form is

Ax + By = C ( A is a positive integer and B, C are integers )

given

y + 6 = \frac{3}{2}(x - 4)

Multiply through by 2 to eliminate the fraction

2y + 12 = 3(x - 4) ← distribute

2y + 12 = 3x - 12 ( subtract 2y from both sides )

12 = 3x - 2y - 12 ( add 12 to both sides )

24 = 3x - 2y, that is

3x - 2y = 24 ← in standard form
