First solve for the slope, m using the two points given. It doesn't matter which point you choose as point 1 or 2 as long as you're consistent.

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

point 1: (–6.4, –2.6)

point 2: (5.2, 9)

m = (9 - -2.6)/(5.2 - -6.4)
m = (9 + 2.6)/(5.2 + 6.4)
m = 11.6/11.6
m = 1

put the newly found slope into the linear equation for m

y = (1)x + b
y = x + b

Now solve for the y-intercept, b
by putting one of the given points

9 = 5.2 + b

b = 9 - 5.2
b = 3.8

final equation:

y = x + 3.8

Answer:

The answer is A (y = 2x - 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

B and D aren't correct because the y-intercept is a positive 2 instead of negative 2 like the graph shown. We're now left with A and C. Go on one point of the graph and count up or down to go on the same y value as the other point. Go left or right and count until you go to the same point. Remember that the slope equation is rise/run. Rise meaning up or down. Run meaning left or right.

Use the multiplication principle to tell the total number of three-card hands (permutations) that can be made with two aces
alina1380 [7]
We are asked for the total or three card hands that can be made with two aces. The three-card hand should have two aces. We will use permutation in solving this problem and the solution is shown below:
nPr = n! /(n-r)!
n=3
r=2
3P2 = 3!/(3-2)!
3P2 = 6

The answer is 6.

Need this for my math test?

Answer:

519.6

Step-by-step explanation:

A hexagon has a total of 720 for it's interior angles so each angle is 120 and in the triangle, each of them is 60, making it an equilateral triangle. You can use 30 60 90 triangles to find the height which is 5√3.

(5√3)*10=50√3

The area of the triangle times 6 is 300√3 which is approximately 519.6

3(2x+14)divided by w-y if w=8,x=5,y=1 how do i solve this
Viktor [21]
\frac{3 (2x + 14)}{w - y}
w = 8, x = 5, y = 1

You have to first substitute every variable into its spot in the equation.

<span>\frac{3 (2x + 14)}{w-y}
</span><span>\frac{3 (2*5 + 14)}{8 - 1}
</span>
Then solve.

\frac{3 (28)}{7} = \frac{84}{7} = 12
