Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer would be D. We can continue the line from the point (-2,8) because we know the slope so we will continue it forward by two on the x axis. Since we go forward by two we are going up by 24 (12*2) on the y axis so the y intercept (b) would be 8 + 24 which is 32. Sorry if it is hard to understand.

Becky is tossing a six-sided nbee cube labeled 1,2,3,4,5, and 6.What is the probability of tossing 6 two times in a row?

GenaCL600 [577]

Odds of rolling a 6 is 1/6. the odds of rolling another 6 is still 1/6. the number on the first toss has no effect on the second (this is called independent events) so you multiply the probabilities together

1/6 * 1/6 = 1/36

As the figure shows Elton runs 500 m to point b first then he turns 110 degrees and runs another 350 m to point c how far is the

Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

658.24 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure makes a triangle with vertices abc.

Where ab = 500 m

bc = 350 m

The angle abc = 100°

Using the cosine rule we can find the distance ac.

ac² = 500²+350² - 2×500×350×cos100°

= 372,500 - -60,776.86

= 433,276.86

ac = √433,276.86

= 658.24 m
