Answer:

y=16x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to find the equation for a line that passes through the two points:

(1,17) and (2,33).

First of all, remember what the equation of a line is:

y = mx+b

Where:

m is the slope, and

b is the y-intercept

First, let's find what m is, the slope of the line...

The slope of a line is a measure of how fast the line "goes up" or "goes down". A large slope means the line goes up or down really fast (a very steep line). Small slopes means the line isn't very steep. A slope of zero means the line has no steepness at all; it is perfectly horizontal.

For lines like these, the slope is always defined as "the change in y over the change in x" or, in equation form:

So what we need now are the two points you gave that the line passes through. Let's call the first point you gave, (1,17), point #1, so the x and y numbers given will be called x1 and y1. Or, x1=1 and y1=17.

Also, let's call the second point you gave, (2,33), point #2, so the x and y numbers here will be called x2 and y2. Or, x2=2 and y2=33.

Now, just plug the numbers into the formula for m above, like this:

m=  

33 - 17/  2 - 1

or...

m=  16/ 1

or...

m=16

So, we have the first piece to finding the equation of this line, and we can fill it into y=mx+b like this:

y=16x+b

Now, what about b, the y-intercept?

To find b, think about what your (x,y) points mean:

(1,17). When x of the line is 1, y of the line must be 17.

(2,33). When x of the line is 2, y of the line must be 33.

Because you said the line passes through each one of these two points, right?

Now, look at our line's equation so far: y=16x+b. b is what we want, the 16 is already set and x and y are just two "free variables" sitting there. We can plug anything we want in for x and y here, but we want the equation for the line that specfically passes through the two points (1,17) and (2,33).

So, why not plug in for x and y from one of our (x,y) points that we know the line passes through? This will allow us to solve for b for the particular line that passes through the two points you gave!.

You can use either (x,y) point you want..the answer will be the same:

(1,17). y=mx+b or 17=16 × 1+b, or solving for b: b=17-(16)(1). b=1.

(2,33). y=mx+b or 33=16 × 2+b, or solving for b: b=33-(16)(2). b=1.

See! In both cases we got the same value for b. And this completes our problem.

The equation of the line that passes through the points

(1,17) and (2,33)  is   y=16x+1

3 = 3/4(b - 8)
Switch sides
3/4(b - 8) = 3
Next, multiply both sides by 4
4 * 3/4(b - 8) = 3 * 4
Then simplify,
3(b - 8) = 12
Next, divide both sides by 3
3(b - 8)/3 = 12/3
Then, simplify
b - 8 = 4
Then, add 8 to both sides
b - 8 + 8 = 4 + 8
Simplify, b = 12

Of the 12 temporary employees in a certain company, 4 will be hired as permanent employees. If 5 of the 12 temporary employees a
Ivenika [448]

Answer:

<h2>70 possible groups</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the total number of employee to be equal to 12 temporary employee.

Number of women employee = 5 women

Number of men employee = 12 - 5 = 7 men

If 4 will be hired as permanent employees, the possible ways they can be grouped so that the 4 temporary employees consists of 3 women and 1 man can be done by applying the combination formula.

Combination has to do with selection. For example, if r objects are to be selected from n pool of similar objects, this can be done in <em>nCr </em>different ways.

nCr = \frac{n!}{(n-r)!r!}

According to question, we are to select 3 women from 5 women and 1 man from 7 men. Based on similarity in sex, this can be done in (5C3* 7C1) different ways .

5C3 * 7C1\\=  \frac{5!}{(5-3)!3!} * \frac{7!}{(7-1)!1!}\\\\= \frac{5!}{2!3!} * \frac{7!}{6!1!}\\\\=  \frac{5*4*3!}{3!*2} * \frac{7*6!}{6!*1}\\\\= \frac{20}{2} * \frac{7}{1}\\  \\= 10*7\\\\= 70\ possible\ groups
