What is an equation of the line that passes through the points (−6,−2) and (−3,−3)?

Stels [109]3 years ago

Answer:

y = -1/3x - 4  (slope-intercept form)

or

x + 3y = -12 (Standard form).

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the line = (-3 - (-2)) / (-3 - (-6))

= -1 / 3.

Using the point-slope form of straight line:

y - y1 = m(x - x1) we have:

y - (-2) = -1/3(x - -6))

y + 2 = -1/3(x + 6

y + 2 = -1/3x - 2

y = -1/3x - 4

In standard form (multiplying thru by 3):

3y = -x - 12

x + 3y = -12.

A consulting firm has received 2 Super Bowl playoff tickets from one of its clients. To be fair, the firm is randomly selecting
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

Therefore the only statement that is not true is b.)

Step-by-step explanation:

There employees are 6 secretaries, 5 consultants and 4 partners in the firm.

a.) The probability that a secretary wins in the first draw

= \frac{number \hspace{0.1cm} of \hspace{0.1cm} secreataries}{total \hspace{0.1cm} number \hspace{0.1cm} of \hspace{0.1cm} employees}  = \frac{6}{15}

b.) The probability that a secretary wins a ticket on second draw.  It has been given that a ticket was won on the first draw by a consultant.

p(secretary wins on second draw | consultant  wins on first draw)

=\frac{p((consultant \hspace{0.1cm} wins \hspace{0.1cm} on \hspace{0.1cm} first \hspace{0.1cm}draw)\cap( secretary\hspace{0.1cm} wins\hspace{0.1cm} on second \hspace{0.1cm}draw))}{p(consultant \hspace{0.1cm} wins \hspace{0.1cm} on \hspace{0.1cm} first \hspace{0.1cm}draw)}

= \frac{\frac{5}{15}  \times \frac{6}{14}}{\frac{5}{15} }  = \frac{6}{14}  .

The probability that  a ticket was won on the first draw by a consultant a secretary wins a ticket on second draw  = \frac{6}{15} is not true.

The probability that a secretary wins on the second draw  = \frac{number \hspace{0.1cm} of  \hspace{0.1cm} secretaries  \hspace{0.1cm} remaining } { number  \hspace{0.1cm} of  \hspace{0.1cm} employees  \hspace{0.1cm} remaining}  = \frac{6 - 1}{15 - 1}  = \frac{5}{14}

c.) The probability that a consultant wins on the first draw  =

\frac{number \hspace{0.1cm} of  \hspace{0.1cm} consultants  \hspace{0.1cm}  } { number  \hspace{0.1cm} of  \hspace{0.1cm} employees  \hspace{0.1cm} }  = \frac{5 }{15}  = \frac{1}{3}

d.) The probability of two secretaries winning both tickets

= (probability of a secretary winning in the first draw) × (The probability that a secretary wins on the second draw)

= \frac{6}{15}  \times \frac{5}{14}  = \frac{1}{7}

Therefore the only statement that is not true is b.)

Given that sin x = cos 2x find the value of x​
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

The most straightforward way to obtain the expression for cos(2x) is by using the "cosine of the sum" formula: cos(x + y) = cosx*cosy - sinx*siny. cos(2x) = cos² (x) - (1 - cos²(x)) = 2cos²(x) - 1. = 2cos²(x) - 1.
