Answer:

<h2>35% No Rain Today</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

0.65 plus p(complement) = one

P(Complement) = 1 minus 0.65 = 0.35 = 35%

I know this as well because I took the test with the same question

Answer:

no rain today = 35%

Step-by-step explanation:

In probability, the Complement Rule states that the sum of the probability of an event and its complement must = 1

i.e

P( Event) + P (Complement) = 1

In this sense, we can think of the complement of an event as the "not-event". I.e the event does not happen.

In our case, the event = "rain today",

hence the complement will be = "not rain today" (i.e no rain today)

using the formula above, we are given that P(rain today) = 65% = 0.65

hence

0.65 + P(Complement) = 1

P(Complement) = 1 - 0.65 = 0.35 = 35%

Write the equation of the line given points (-4,6) and (-8,10)

Advocard [28]

Answer:

the equation of the line in slope-intercept form is: $y=-x+2$

Step-by-step explanation:

First start by finding the slope of the segment that joins those two points using the general formula for the slope of the segments between two points $(x_1,y_1)$ and $(x_2,y_2)$ on the plane:

$Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Then for our case, calling (-4, 6) = $(x_1,y_1)$ and (-8, 10) = $(x_2,y_2)$ , we have:

$Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\Slope=\frac{10-6}{-8-(-4)}\\Slope=\frac{4}{-8+4}\\Slope=\frac{4}{-4}\\Slope= -1$

Now, knowing this, we can find the equation of the line by using the "point-slope" form of a line [of slope "m" and going through the point $(x_0,y_0)$ that tells us:

$y-y_0=m(x-x_0)$

We will be then using the found slope (-1) and for example one of the given points: (-4 , 6), thus:

$y-y_0=m(x-x_0)\\y-6=-1(x-(-4))\\y-6=-1(x+4)\\y-6=-x-4\\y=-x-4+6\\y=-x+2$

What’s the value of the blue dot

bixtya [17]

Answer:

-22

Step-by-step explanation:

Each line is worth 3 units

-10 - (-16) = 6 units between and there are 2 spaces

6/2 = 3

We are going down so it is negative

-16 -3 =-19

then the dot is on the next line

-19 -3 = -22

Check all the equations that apply to meet the Segment Addition Postulate in segment PB. PO=7x+6, OB=3x+6 and PB=38 select all t

grandymaker [24]

Answer:

these two apply:

10x + 12 = 38 and

10x = 26

Step-by-step explanation:

7x+6+3x+6 = 38

10x + 12 = 38

10x = 26

x = 2.6
