Juan wants to make a new game board that is a grid containing 25 equally sized squares. How many squares should be shaded to cre

pickupchik [31]

Let the number of shaded square be x. And it is given that total number of squares are 25.

$probability = \frac{shaded \ squares}{total \ squares}$

Substituting the values

$0.2 = \frac{x}{25}$

Performing cross multiplication

$0.2*25=x \\ x = 5$

So 5 squares should be shaded to create a region with a geometric probability of 0.2 .

Write an equation in point-slope form that describes the line with a slope of -3 that contains the point (1,2)

Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

<h2> y - 2 = -3(x - 1)</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form of the equation that describes the line with a slope of <em>m</em> that contains the point (x₀, y₀) is: y - y₀ = m(x - x₀)

m = - 3

(1, 2) ⇒ x₀ = 1, y₀ = 2

Therefore:

y - 2 = -3(x - 1)
