Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope is given to you by the line y = 1/4 x
The slope is just read as the number in front of x providing that the coefficient of y is 1. If that is not so, then you must divide by the coefficient in front of y. So far what you have is y = 1/4 x + b.
The second part of the question is to use the given point to find b.
x = 4
y = -1
b = ? substitute x and y to find b
y = 1/4 * 4 + b
- 1 = 1/4 * 4 + b
-1 = 1 + b
-2 = b
The equation of the line is y = 1/4 x - 2 Just to confirm this, I'm going to include the graph with the point 4,-1 on it.
The possiblities that exist:
H, H, H
H, H, T
H, T, H <----
H, T, T
T, H, H
T, H, T
T, T, H
T, T, T
The answer is 1/8. Now the problem that you gave us isn't dependent upon anything, so more specifically the answer is 1/8 independent.
Nothing has actually happened therefore no odds have been decreased or increased.
Let us suppose number of rides is x.One ride costs $0.50.
Cost of x rides is 0.50x. The carnival charges is $5. Alex has $15 to spend .
Number of rides at most Alex can have can be given by the inequality:
0.50x+5≤ 15
To solve for x we subtract 5 both sides
0.50x≤ 15-5
0.50x≤ 10
Dividing both sides by 0.50 we have :
x≤ 20
Number of rides at most Alex can have is 20.
