Answer: \dfrac2{201}

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of persons said it is legal to text while driving = 8

Number of persons said it is illegal to text while driving = 804

Total persons sampled = 804+8 = 812

Since probability =\dfrac{\text{favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total outcomes}}

The probability of randomly selecting someone who believes it should be legal to text while driving = \dfrac{8}{804}=\dfrac2{201}

Required probability = \dfrac2{201}

What is an equation of the line that passes through the points ( 0,-7) and ( 5, -1)
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

y = 5/6x - 5.167

Or

y = 5/6x - 31/6

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line

y = mx + c

Step 1: find the slope

m = y2 - y1 / x2 - x1

Given points

( 0 , -7) ( 5 , -1)

x1 = 0

y1 = -7

x2 = 5

y2 = -1

Insert the values into the equation

m = -1 - (-7) / 5 - 0

m = -1 + 7 / 5

m = 6/5

y = 6/5x + c

Step 2: sub any of the two points given into the equation

y = 5/6x + c

( 5 , -1)

x = 5

y = -1

-1 = 5/6(5) + c

-1 = 5*5/6 + c

-1 = 25/6 + c.

c = -1 - 25/6

LCM = 6

c = -6 - 25 / 6

c = -31/6

c = -5.167

Step 3: sub c into the equation

y = 5/6x + c

y = 5/6x - 31/6

Or

y = 5/6x - 5.167

The equation of the line is

y = 5/6x - 5.167

Daquan and Juan are twins but their sister phillipa is 3 years older than them if the sum of their three ages is 36 how old are
sweet [91]

Step-by-step explanation:

Daquan's age = x

Juan's age = x

Phillipa's age = x + 3

x + x + x + 3 = 36

3x + 3 = 36

3x = 36 - 3

3x = 33

x = 33 ÷ 3

x = 11

the twins are 11 years old
