Answer:

Please check the explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the points

  • (x₁, y₁)
  • (x₂, y₂)

Using the formula  to determine the slope between (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) of the linear function

Slope = m =  [y₂ - y₁] /  [x₂ - x₁]

For example, let the points be

(x₁, y₁) = (1, 2)

(x₂, y₂) = (3, 4)

Determining the slope between

Slope = m =  [y₂ - y₁] /  [x₂ - x₁]

               =  [4 - 2] / [3 - 1]

               = 2 / 2

               = 1

Thus,

The slope of the line between the points (1, 2)  and (3, 4)  will be: m = 1

There are 6 red marbles 4 blue marbles to yellow marbles. Sabrina picks 2 marbles without putting the first one back what is the
Yanka [14]

Answer:

P = 3/11

Step-by-step explanation:

There are:

6 red marbles

4 blue marbles

2 yellow marbles.

So there are a total of 12 marbles in the bag, such that each one has the same probability of being randomly picked.

We want to find the probability that the first pick is not yellow (so it can be either blue or red), and the second pick is a blue marble.

Now there are two cases.

The first marble is red and the second blue

the first marble is blue and the second blue

We need to find the probability in each case.

The probability that the first marble is red is equal to the quotient between the number of red marbles (6) and the total number of marbles (12)

p = 6/12

Now, for the second draw, we need a blue marble, the probability in this case is the quotient between the number of blue marbles (4) and the total number of marbles in the bag (now there are 11, because one is already taken)

q = 4/11

The joint probability is equal to the product of the individual probabilities, then:

P₁ = p*q = (6/12)*(4/11) = 2/11

And for the other case, we draw two blue marbles:

For the first draw, the probability is:

p = 4/12

And for the second draw, now there are 3 blue marbles and 11 total marbles, then the probability is:

q = 3/11

The joint probability is:

P₂ = (4/12)*(3/11) = 1/11

The total probability is then:

P = P₁ + P₂ = 2/11 + 1/11 = 3/11

raketka [301]

Answer:

-5

Step-by-step explanation:

f(2) = 2 * f(1) + 1

f(2) = 2 * -3 + 1

f(2) = -6 + 1

f(2) = -5

Write the following series in sigma notation.<br> 7 + 16 + 25 +34 +43 +52 + 61
Solnce55 [7]

The series 7 + 16 + 25 +34 +43 +52 + 61 is an illusration of arithmetic series

The sigma notation of the series is: \sum\limits^7_{n=1} {9n - 2}

<h3>How to write the series in sigma notation?</h3>

The series is given as:

7 + 16 + 25 +34 +43 +52 + 61

The above series is an arithmetic series, with the following parameters

  • First term, a = 7
  • Common difference, d = 9
  • Number of terms, n = 7

Start by calculating the nth term using:

a(n) = a + (n - 1) * d

This gives

a(n) = 7 + (n - 1) * 9

Evaluate the product

a(n) = 7  - 9 + 9n

Evaluate the difference

a(n) = 9n - 2

So, the sigma notation is:

\sum\limits^7_{n=1} {9n - 2}
