Answer: P = 1/12 = 0.083

Step-by-step explanation:

Out of the 12 girls, there will be only one that is the lead-off batter.

we can assume that this is the first being selected at random, then the probability that you will be the lead-off batter, is equal to the quotient between 1 (the outcome where you are selected) and 12 (the total number of outcomes)

Then the probability is:

P = 1/12 = 0.083

The fact that there will be an arrange of only 9 girls does not affect the probability of you getting the position of the lead-off batter.

So, I undestood slope right. But, I get confused with the other points that intersect there is multiple of them. How do i look f
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

slope = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Find 2 points on the line that land perfectly on the grid. I'll choose these 2 here:

(-2, -1) and (0, 3)

Rise is the change in the y value from one point to the other, and run is the change in the x. Looking at these 2 points, y went from -1 to 3. That is a <em>rise</em> of 4. The x went from -2 to 0, so that is a <em>run</em> of 2. "rise over run" means rise literally over run in a fraction like this:

m=\frac{rise}{run}

The more proper way to calculate slope looks like this, but it's really the same thing in the end:

m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

where (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are your 2 points.

Finally, the slope of this line is:

m=\frac{3--1}{0--2}\\\\m=\frac{4}{2}\\\\m=2

That's a rise of 4 over a run of 2, and that simplifies to just a slope of 2.

A gift box’s rectangular base has a perimeter of 92 centimeters. The length of the base is one more than twice the base’s width.
kozerog [31]
Assume that the length of the rectangle is "l" and that the width is "w".

We are given that: 
(1) The length is one more than twice the base. This means that:
l = 2w + 1 .......> equation I
(2) The perimeter is 92 cm. This means that:
92 = 2(l+w) ...........> equation II

Substitute with equation I in equation II to get the width as follows:
92 = 2(l+w)
92 = 2(2w+1+w)
92/2 = 3w + 1
46 = 3w + 1
3w = 46-1 = 45
w = 45/3
w = 15

Substitute with w in equation I to get the length as follows:
l = 2w + 1 
l = 2(15) + 1
l = 30 + 1 = 31

Based on the above calculations:
length of base = 31 cm
width of base = 15 cm
