Answer:

35/87

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the probability, we must find (total number of favorable outcomes)/ (total number of outcomes). We thus need to find the total number of outcomes. As people have only answered "yes" or "no", the total number of outcomes is 208+140 = 348.

The total number of favorable outcomes, or what we're looking for, is 140 (140 people responded that they had run a red light). Thus, our fraction is 140/348, or 35/87

Find the slope of the line passing through the points (2,-9) and )1,-3)
nignag [31]

Hi there!

\large\boxed{\text{slope =} 6}

We can calculate slope using the following formula:

slope = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

Plug in the corresponding points:

slope = \frac{-9-(-3)}{2-1}

Simplify:

slope = \frac{-6}{1} = -6
