Answer:

y = -5/2x - 10

Step-by-step explanation:

You plug in the slope for m, so you have y = -5/2x + b.

You then plug in the x and y values from the given point to isolate b.

(5) = (-5/2)(-6) + b

5 = 15 + b

b = -10

Plug b into the initial equation, and you have your slope intercept form.

y = -5/2x - 10

Hope this helped!

If 80% of scheduled flights actually take place and cancellations are independent events, what is the probability that 3 separat

Mekhanik [1.2K]

We are given that 80% of scheduled flights really take place, therefore this means that:

Probability of flying = 80% = 0.80

Now in statistics class, we know that the probability of two or more independent events to occur is simply equivalent to the product of their probabilities, or mathematically written as: (P = Probability)

total P = P1 * P2 * P3 *...

In this case, since we are to find for the probability that 3 independent flights will occur, therefore the total probability assuming equal probabilities to fly is:

total probability = 0.80 * 0.80* 0.80

total probability = 0.512

total probability = 51.20%

This means that there is only a 51.20% chance for 3 flights to occur.

Evaluate: -1 2/5 ÷ 14/15

Sergio [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: Turn the mixed number into an improper fraction. -1 2/5 becomes -7/5. To divide fractions, you keep the first fraction, change the division sign to mulitplication and flip the second fraction. Then just multiply across the top and across the bottom. You will get 105/70. Reduce by dividing both numerator and denomination by 35 Result will be 3/2.

The angle measures are represented by algebraic expressions.

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

The value of x is 0.5

The value of y is 0.8

The value of z is 0.9

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to find the values of x , y and z

- From the attached figure

# $l_{1}$ and $l_{2}$ intersect each other at a point

- When two lines intersect each other at a point they formed

congruent vertical opposite angles

∴ The angle of measure (50z + 13)° = the angle of measure (80z - 14)°

because thy are vertical opposite angles

∴ 50z + 13 = 80z - 14

- Add 14 to both sides

∴ 50z + 27 = 80z

- Subtract 50z from both sides

∴ 27 = 30z

- Divide both sides by 30

∴ $z=\frac{27}{30}=\frac{9}{10}=0.9$

* The value of z is 0.9

- From the attached figure

# The angles of measures (50z + 13)° and (45x + 19/2)° have sum

of 90°

∴ 50z + 13 + 45x + 19/2 = 90

∵ z = 0.9

∴ 50(0.9) + 13 + 45x + 19/2 = 90

∴ 45 + 13 + 45x + 9.5 = 90

- Add like term in the left hand side

∴ 67.5 + 45x = 90

- Subtract 67.5 from both sides

∴ 45x = 22.5

- Divide both sides by 45

∴ x = 0.5

* The value of x is 0.5

- From the attached figure

# There is a ray perpendicular to line $l_{1}$

∴ The measure of the angle whose measure (225y/2)° is 90°

∴ $\frac{225y}{2}=90$

- Multiply both sides by 2

∴ 225y = 180

- Divide both sides by 225

∴ $y=\frac{180}{225}=\frac{4}{5}=0.8$

* The value of y is 0.8
