They want to know the probability of landing in the blue and red section at the same time. In other words, they want to know the probability of landing in the purple section.

We'll need the area of the purple square. This square is 1.5 inches by 1.5 inches. This is because 4 - 2.5 = 1.5

So the purple square has an area of 1.5*1.5 = 2.25 square inches

Divide this over the total area of the largest square (which is 9x9) to get 2.25/81 = 0.02777... where the 7's go on forever

Round that to two decimal places. The final answer is 0.03

Side note: 2.25/81 is equivalent to the reduced fraction 1/36 (express 2.25/81 as 225/8100 and then divide both parts by the GCF 225)

The temperature was -5 degrees at 5:00 am. After 2 hours, the temperature increased by 39 degrees. What was the temperature at 7
Nesterboy [21]

Answer: 34 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

The starting temperature was -5 degrees at 5am, and after two hours, the temperature was 34 degrees at 7am. The temperature increased by 39 degrees, how did we get this answer?

You add -5 and 39

-5 + 39 = 34

A tip for adding negatives:

When you get a problem similar to -5 + 39, you can actually flip them around if you need an easier understanding. So it would be 39 - 5. Both equations still equal 34 as long as you keep the values of each number!

Please help on this one?
ki77a [65]

m = \frac{1}{2},   (x₁ , y₁) = (-2, -4)

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

y -(-4) = \frac{1}{2}(x - (-2))

y + 4 = \frac{1}{2}(x +2)

y + 4 = \frac{1}{2}x + 1

     y = \frac{1}{2}x - 3
