Answer:

( 0 , 3 )

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Way one of solving this problem

This equation is in standard form, one must get it to slope-intercept form to find the answer. In other words, one must solve for "y"

3x + 4y = 12

Manipulate the literal equation with inverse operations;

3x + 4y = 12

4y = 12 - 3x

/4      /4

y = - \frac{3}{4}x + 4

2. Way two of solving this equation

The y-intercept is when this line intercepts the y-axis, so "x" is zero. Substitute "0" in for "x", and solve to find the y-intercept

3x + 4y = 12

x = 0

3 (0) + 4y = 12

0 + 4y = 12

Inverse operations;

4y = 12

/4   /4

y = 3

Answer:

y-intercept = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 4y = 12

4y = -3x + 12

4y/4 = -3/4x + 12/4

y = -3/4x + 3

vekshin1
Number of combinations of 5 women from 7  = 7C5 =  7*6 / 2 = 21
for men its 7C4  = 7*6*5 / 3*2 =  35

Total number of ways = 21*35  = 735

The correlation coefficient r between a child’s age, x, and the number of minutes spent doing homework each day, y, is 0.694. Wh
jonny [76]
<span>So, they are looking for the percentage that is NOT explained... Well, given the r we can find the percentage that IS explained by it first. That's given by r^2.

</span>Now - let's take the square of r it gives me .481636. That means that about 48% IS explained. Therefore, the part that cannot be explained must be the missing part (out of 100% <span>so 100% - 48.1636% should be it :)
</span>
<span>So 100% - 48.1636% = 0.518364 and we want to round that off to three decimal places which will give us 0.518... and then we could convert that to a percent for the final. So 0.518 as a percentage is 51.8%! s</span>

What is the equation that represents the line?
Kryger [21]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 2, - 6) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (2, - 3) ← 2 points on the line

m = \frac{-3+6}{2+2} = \frac{3}{4}, thus

y = \frac{3}{4} x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute either ot the 2 points into the partial equation

Using (2, - 3), then

- 3 = \frac{3}{2} + c ⇒ c = - 3 - \frac{3}{2} = - \frac{9}{2}

y = \frac{3}{4} x - \frac{9}{2} ← equation of line
