Answer:

We can solve this question using the slope equation which is y2-y1/x2-x1

If you use that formula and sub in the coordinates

-4 - 5 / -1-2

-9/-3

= 3

The slope should be 3/1

You want to draw a red then a blue marble. do you have a better chance of drawing a red then blue marble with or without replaci

elena-s [515]

Answer: Without replacing

Step-by-step explanation:

If you don't replace the first red marble, it decreases the number of red marbles in the mix, making the proportion of blue marbles relatively larger. For example, if there were 5 red and 5 blue marbles, there would be a 50% chance of drawing a blue marble. If the red drawn is not replaced, there is a 5/9 chance of drawing a blue marble, or a 55% chance of drawing one.

Marita orders 12 yards of material to make banners. If she needs 1 foot of fabric for each banner, how many banners can she make

Alik [6]

Well 3 feet=1 yard
so the conversion factor is 3ft/1yd

so 12 yards converted to feet is
12yd times 3ft/1yd
the yd will cancel and you will be left with 36 feet

each banner is 1 foot so 36/1=36
she can make 36 banners
