Answer:

The answer is y = -3x + 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

❃Incase you forgot what the linear equation formula is ☟

y = mx + b

❃Incase you also forgot, what the slope formula is ☟

m =  \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}

➊ First: We are going to be solving for the slope.

m =  \frac{ - 8 - 1}{5 - 2}  =  \frac{ - 9}{ \:  \:  \: 3}  =  - 3

➋Second: We find the y-intercept.

y = mx + b \\ 1 = - 3(2) + b \\ 1 = - 6 + b \\ \frac{ + 6 = + 6 \: \: \: \: \:  \:  \:  \:  \: }{7 = b}

➌Third: Plug in.

y =  - 3x + 7

State whether the sentence is true or false. If false, replace the underlined term to make a true sentence.

False , Combining a coin toss and a roll of a die makes a simple event.

In statistics, what does a probability mean?

  • The probability serves as a gauge for how likely an event is to occur. It gauges how likely an event is.
  • P(E) = Number of Favorable Outcomes/Number of Total Outcomes is the formula for probability.
  • Mathematics' study of random events is known as probability, and there are four primary types of probability: axiomatic, classical, empirical, and subjective.
  • Since probability is the same as possibility, you could say that it is the likelihood that a specific event will occur.

False , Combining a coin toss and a roll of a die makes a simple event.

The blueprint for a new swimming pool uses the scale 3/4
beks73 [17]

Answer:

3 in wide by 4.5 in long.

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4=0.75

I divided the given dimensions by two, so I could multiply .75 by the sets of twos instead of dividing 3/4 by two and multiplying that by 12 and 8.

.74 x 4 = 3

.75 x 6 = 4.5

Find the value of x please!! ASAP
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

By looking at the picture, I can tell the angle of the 3x is also 30 degrees.

This means 3x = 30.

When you solve for x by dividing each side by 3, you result with the answer of x = 10.

To check you work, plug in 10 for x to recieve 30 degrees again.
