In step 1 the y-intercept should be plotted at (0,-6)
Step-by-step explanation:
Remember that to find the Y intercept in any linear equation you need to use 0 as your X value, this means taking the formula in the y=mx+b form and replacing X with a 0.
Since the formula is y = -3/4x -6
We just insert a 0 insted of the "x"
y = -3/4(0) -6
y=0-6
y=6
So the y-intercept sould be placed in (0,-6)
That's what he did wrong when graphing the equation.

There are twelve shirts in your closet, five blue and seven green. Four of the blue shirts and one of the green shirts fit well.
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

  • P (blue or too big) = 11 / 12

Explanation:

A two way table permits to represent the situation clearly and find the answser is an easy way.

The two way table is that results from the given information is:

Initial information:

                     Blue           Green         Total

Fit well             4                  1                 ?

Too big            ?                   ?                ?

Total               5                   7                12

Now by subtraction and addition you can fill the unknown fields:

                     Blue           Green         Total

Fit well             4                  1                5

Too big            1                   6                7

Total                5                   7                12

Now, you can see that there are 5 blue and 7 too big shirts, but the total number of them is 5 + 7 - 1 (because one of the too big shirts is also blue).

Then, the number of shirts being blue or too big is 5 + 7 - 1 = 11.

And the probability is :

  • P(blue or too big) = number of blue or too big / total number of shirts

  • P (blue or too big) = 11 / 12 ← answer

You can also realize that there is only 1 green shirt that fits well, and that is the only option of not being blue of too big, so 1 /12 is the probability of not being blue or too big, and its complement (being blue or too big) is 1 - 1/12 = 11 / 12.
