Answer:

y= -2x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

slope-intercept form y2-y1/x2-x1

-5-5/3-(-2) = -10/5 = -2 = m

y=mx+b is the equation you are trying to find.

plug m value into equation

y = -2x + b

plug one of the points into the equation to find b

5 = -2(-2) + b

5 = 4 + b

subtract 4 from both sides

1 = b

plug back into equation

final line equation is: y = -2x + 1

What is the equation of the line that is parallel to the line y=-1/3x+4 and passes through the point (6,5)?

natulia [17]

Parallel lines have the same slope. The slope of y = -1/3 x + 4 is -1/3.

The equation is

(y - 5) = -1/3 (x - 6)

y = -1/3 x -1/3 (- 6) + 5 = -1/3 x + 2 + 5 = -1/3 + 7

The equation is: y = - 1/3 x + 7

y = -1/3 x

In a box there are six envelopes each containing two cards. Three of the envelopes contain two red cards, two of them contain a

Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

$\frac{2}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

3 envelopes having 2 red card

2 envelopes having 1 red card and 1 black card

1 envelope having 2 black cards

We are given that . An envelope is selected at random and a card is withdrawn and found to be red.

So, No. of ways of envelope having red card = 3+2 = 5

No. of required ways of envelope having 1 red card and 1 black card = 2

So, probability of getting an envelope having 1 red card and 1 black card = $\frac{2}{5}$

Hence The chance the other card is black is $\frac{2}{5}$
