Answer:
y = - 
x + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Calculate m using the slope formula
m = 
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (4, 0) ← 2 points on the line
m = 
= -
The line crosses the y- axis at (0, 3 ) ⇒ c = 3
y = - x + 3 ← equation of line
answer:
the candle would be gone by then (done burning)
step-by-step explanation:
ok, so the candle starts off at 4in and it'll already be gone before the first hour passes. (or at least it would be in the case that by every 30 minutes 6in is burned.)
hopefully, this is what you were looking for
good luck :)
have a great day !!
Answer:
The answer is 29/42
Step-by-step explanation:
First, let's calculate how many people predicted they would fail. The question states that 65 people took the exam and 23 predicted they would pass, so we can find the number of people that predicted they would fail by the following calculation:
Let FP be the people who predicted they'd fail
65 = 23 + FP
65 - 23 = FP
42 = FP
Now, let's move on to the next part. The question states that a total of 31 people passed the test, from those 18 being the people who predicted they would pass and the rest are people who had predicted they would fail but ended up passing.
Let's set x as the number of people who predicted they would fail but have passed.
31 = 18 + x
31 - 18 = x
13 = x
Since 13 of the 42 FP have passed, we can calculate how many of them failed. Let y be the number of people that predicted to fail and ended up failing:
13 + y = 42
y = 42 - 13
y = 29
Finally, now we have the fraction of those who predicted that they would fail actually did fail and that's 29/42
