Question 7 of 10

kirza4 [7]

The required equation of the line is y = -1/2x

<h3>Equation of a line</h3>

The standard equation of a line is expressed as y = mx + b

where:
m is the slope
b is the y intercept

Given the coordinate points (0,0) and (4, -2)

Slope = -2/4 = -1/2

The intercept is 0 since the line pass through the origin

Hence the required equation of the line is y = -1/2x

How do I construct bisectors, angles, & segments?

Doss [256]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

These come directly from my textbook, so I'm not sure if your teacher will accept this kind of work.

1. Angle construction:

Given an angle. construct an angle congruent to the given angle.

Given: Angle ABC

Construct: An angle congruent to angle ABC

Procedure:

1. Draw a ray. Label it ray RY.

2. Using B as center and any radius, draw an arc that intersects ray BA and ray BC. Label the points of intersection D and E, respectively.

3. Using R as center and the same radius as in Step 2, draw an arc intersecting ray RY. Label the arc XS, with S being the point where the arc intersects ray RY.

4. Using S as center and a radius equal to DE, draw an arc that intersects arc XS at a point Q.

5. Draw ray RQ.

Justification (for congruence): If you draw line segment DE and line segment QS, triangle DBE is congruent to triangle QRS (SSS postulate) Then angle QRS is congruent to angle ABC.

You can probably also Google videos if it's hard to imagine this. Sorry, construction is super hard to describe.

Wha is 3x+3y=-9 in standard to slope intercept form simplified, thank you!

Alona [7]

Answer

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer would be y=-x-3. 3x+3y=-9 is in standard form and you want it to be in y=mx=b form (slope-int) so subtract 3x by both sides. Now, you have 3y=-3x-9. Divide 3 to both sides, now you will get y=-x-3.

A student committee is to consist of 2 freshmen, 5 sophomores, 4 juniors, and 3 seniors. If 6 freshmen, 13 sophomores, 8 juniors

<h3>Answer: 491,891,400</h3>

Delete the commas if necessary.

============================================================

Explanation:

There are 6 freshmen total and we want to pick 2 of them, where order doesn't matter. The reason it doesn't matter is because each seat on the committee is the same. No member outranks any other. If the positions were labeled "president", "vice president", "secretary", etc, then the order would matter.

Plug n = 6 and r = 2 into the nCr combination formula below

$n C r = \frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}\\\\6 C 2 = \frac{6!}{2!*(6-2)!}\\\\6 C 2 = \frac{6!}{2!*4!}\\\\6 C 2 = \frac{6*5*4!}{2!*4!}\\\\ 6 C 2 = \frac{6*5}{2!}\\\\ 6 C 2 = \frac{6*5}{2*1}\\\\ 6 C 2 = \frac{30}{2}\\\\ 6 C 2 = 15\\\\$

This tells us there are 15 ways to pick the 2 freshmen from a pool of 6 total.

Repeat those steps for the other grade levels.

n = 13 sophomores, r = 5 selections leads to nCr = 13C5 = 1287. This is the number of ways to pick the sophomores.

You would follow the same type of steps shown above to get 1287. Let me know if you need to see these steps.

Similarly, 8C4 = 70 is the number of ways to pick the juniors.

Lastly, 14C3 = 364 is the number of ways to pick the seniors.

-----------------------------

To recap, we have...

15 ways to pick the freshmen
1287 ways to pick the sophomores
70 ways to pick the juniors
364 ways to pick the seniors

Multiply out those values to get to the final answer.

15*1287*70*364 = 491,891,400

This massive number is a little under 492 million.
