What is the slope of the line that lies between the points (0, -1) and (-1,2)?

From a group of 8 volunteers, including Andrew and Karen, 4 people are to be selected at random to organize a charity event. Wha

Helga [31]

Answer:

The correct option is D. 2/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

There are 8 volunteers including Andrew and Karen, 4 people are to be selected at random to organize a charity event.

We need to determine the probability Andrew will be among the 4 volunteers selected and Karen will not.

We want to select Andrew and 3 others but not Karen in the group.

Thus, the number of ways to select 3 member out of 8-2=6

(We subtract 2 from 8 because Andrew is already selected and we don't want Karen to be selected, so subtract 2 from 8.)

The required probability is:

$\dfrac{^6C_3}{^8C_4}=\dfrac{\frac{6!}{3!3!}}{\frac{8!}{4!4!}}\\\\\\\dfrac{^6C_3}{^8C_4}=\frac{20}{70}\\\\\\\dfrac{^6C_3}{^8C_4}=\dfrac{2}{7}$

Hence, the correct option is D. 2/7

Find the slope and y-intercept for the two linear functions. Linear Functions Identify the slope of the line given in the table:

Natalija [7]

ANSWER

See explanation

EXPLANATION

The table contains these two points (-4,-3) and (2,-4.5)

The slope of this line is given by;

$m = \frac{rise}{run}$

$m = \frac{ - 4.5 - - 3}{2 - - 4} = \frac{ - 1.5}{6}$

$m = - \frac{1}{4}$

The y-intercept can be obtained by finding the equation of the line in the form:

$y = mx + c$

We plug in the slope and the point (-4,-3) to find c.

This implies that,

$- 3 = - \frac{1}{4} \times - 4 + c$

$- 3 = 1 + c$

$c = - 3 - 1 = - 4$

Hence the y-intercept is -4.

The given line is

$y = \frac{3}{2} x + 1$

This is already in the slope intercept form:

The slope is

$m = \frac{3}{2}$

The y-intercept is c=1

James knows that when he walks, he takes about 120

Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

speed of James is: 3.75 miles/hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the speed of James in miles per hour(mi/hr)

we know that 1 mile=5280 feet

James takes 120 steps in 1 minute so he will cover 120×60 steps in 1 hour.

i.e. he takes 7200 steps in 1 hour.

also each step of James=2.75 feet

total distance covered by James in 1 hour=2.75×7200 feet=19800 feet

$19800feet=\frac{19800}{5280} miles=3.65miles$

hence speed of James= (distance covered by james in 1 hour)/1 hour

speed of James=3.75 miles/hour.

OLga [1]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!

f(x) = 7/x

~ Simply keep the "7" in the place where "x" is there.

$f(7) = \frac{7}{7}$

Therefore, X= 1.

Hope it helps....
