The equation of the line has the form: y = ax+b parallel to the line y = -2x + 7
=> a= -2
Passes through (4,1) => x=4, y=1
Substituting into the equation:
1= -2x(4) + b => b= 9
=> y= -2x + 9
A+b=6.1 ---(1)
a-b=1.6 ---(2)
(1)+(2); 2a=7.7
then a=3.85
so b=a-1.6 = 3.85-1.6 = 2.25
so that the two numbers are 2.25 and 3.85
4.5 and maybe 16-64. If they count -
Answer:
Josh bought 4.5 pounds of cucumbers.
Step-by-step explanation:
2.79 divided by the cost per pound, .62, is 4.5. Therefore he bought 4.5 pounds of cucumbers
4/10 chance of rain Friday, 6/10 chance Saturday and 1/10 chance Sunday.
That means the chances of it not raining are 6/10 4/10 and 9/10
You multiply these together to get the chances of it not raining.
You get 216/1000 or .216 or 2.16% chance of it not raining
