Answer:

-1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

according to what I learnt, the general form of every equation is y=mx+c where y is the y value, x is the x value, m is the slope and c is the y-intercept so the equation y-3= -1/2(x - 2) in the general form wil be :

y= -x/2+4 and so m= -x/2 ,that is -1/2

Jason and Maria are playing a board game in which three dice are tossed to determine a player's move. Find each probability for:
fredd [130]
Tossing a die will have 6 possible outcomes. Those are having sides that are number 1 to 6. The sample space of tossing 3 dice is equal to 6³ which is equal to 216. Now for the calculation of probabilities,

P(two 5s) = (1 x 1 x 5)/216
As we have to have the 5 in the die for two times, then for the 1 time, we can have all other numbers except 5. The answer is 5/216. 

P(three 5s) = (1 x 1 x 1)/216   = 1/216

P(one 5 or two 5s)  = (1 x 5 x 5)/216 + (1 x 1 x 5)/216 = 5/36

Choose the slope and y-intercept that correspond with the graph. ​ignore this
krok68 [10]

Answer: The second choice is correct:  slope is 3/4, y-intercept is 1

Step-by-step explanation: The y-intercept is where the line crosses the y-axis.

Look for places where the line intersects the grid at "cross-points" like (-4,-2) (0,1) and (4,4)

The slope is rise/run.

The difference in y-values is the rise. 4-1=3  1-(-2) is 3.

The rise is 3.

The difference in x-values is the run. 4-0=4  0-(-4) = 4

The run is 4

Rise/run = 3/4  That is the slope.
