Answer:

The slope is -2/9

Step-by-step explanation:

9y + 2x = 54

Solve for y to get the equation in the form

y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

Subtract 2x from each side

9y + 2x -2x = -2x+54

9y = -2x+54

Divide by 9

9y/9 = -2x/9 + 54/9

y = -2/9 x +6

The slope is -2/9

Parallel lines have the same slope

Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

Hey there!

A "flip" can be considered a reflection.

A "spin" is a rotation.

A "slide" is a translation.

None of these transformations change the way a shape looks, or the size of the shape. They only change how the shape is oriented.

Let me know if this helps :)

You are visiting a rainforest, but unfortunately,your insect repellent has run out. As a result, at each second, a mosquito land

zmey [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Prob at each second, a mosquito lands on your neck =0.5

Prob it bites/it lands = 0.2

Prob it does not bite/it lands = 0.8

Hence in one second prob for getting a bite = $0.5(0.2) = 0.01$

i.e. 1/100 chance of getting bitten in one second

In 100 seconds number of bites $=1$

Expected time between successive bites = 100

Elaine plans on saving $2,000 a year and expects to earn an annual rate of 8.8 percent. How much will she have in her account at

yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

$831,532.24

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount that will be in her account at ordinary annuity is derived using the formula:

$A(n) = \dfrac{P((1 + r)^{n}-1)}{r}$

Where:

Yearly Deposit,P=$2000

Annual rate,r=8.8%=0.088

Number of Years,n=43 years

$A(43) = \dfrac{2000((1 + 0.088)^{43}-1)}{0.088}\\\dfrac{2000[(1 .088)^{43}-1]}{0.088}\\A(43)=\$831,532.24$

At the end of 43 years, she would have <u>$831,532.24</u> in her account.
