Answer:

Number of student (not Bike) = 12

Number of student (Bike) = 84

Total student = 96

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Probability of student have bike = 7/8

Computation:

Assume;

Number of student (Bike) = a

Number of student (not Bike) = b

So,

a-b = 72

So,

a / (a+b) = 7/8

8a = 7a + 7b

a = 7b

So,

a-b = 72

7b - b = 72

6b = 72

b = 12

Number of student (not Bike) = 12

Number of student (Bike)

a -12 = 72

a = 84

Number of student (Bike) = 84

Total student = 84 + 12

Total student = 96

Help please fast the format is Y-____=_____(x - ____) and i need the actual answer

Answer:

  • y -195 = 15(x -9)
  • $60

Step-by-step explanation:

The form of the equation you are given is called "point-slope" form. The "slope" in this case is the per-hour fee. The point is (9 h, $195). Point-slope form generally looks like this:

  y -k = m(x -h) . . . . . line with slope m through point (h, k)

Here, you have m=15, (h, k) = (9, 195), so the equation looks like ...

  y -195 = 15(x -9)

__

The "one-time fee" is the cost when hours are zero.

  y -195 = 15(0 -9)

  y = 195 -9(15) = 60 . . . . add 195 to both sides, and evaluate

The one-time fee is $60.
