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.

A class consists of 12 boys and 12 girls. The teacher picks five students to present their work to the rest of the class
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

0.01863, yes preference

Step-by-step explanation:

given that a class consists of 12 boys and 12 girls. The teacher picks five students to present their work to the rest of the class  and says that the five students are being selected at random

Here selecting any 5 students from the group of total 24 students is combination because order does not matter.

Total no of ways of selecting any 5 from total 24 = 24C5\\=42504

No of ways of selecting only 5 girls = No of ways of selecting random 5 girls from total 12 girls

= 12C5\\=792

a) the probability be that all five students

selected are girls=\frac{792}{42504} \\=0.01863

b) Since the probability for selecting all girls is very small and near to 0, it is unusual to select all girls if done at random.  Hence the teacher had a preference for girls.

For what value of q is in the question -13(q+4)=7q+16​
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

q=-3 2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

First multiply -13 with (q+4)

-13q-52=7q+16

Now you have to change the order before = the numbers with q and after = the numbers without anything

-13q-7q=52+16

Remember that when you change positions the symbol too

Then solve it

-20q=68

Now u have to divide as i do

q=68/-20

you can simplify it

q=3 8/-20

Now divide by the greater divisor in this case is 4

q=3 2/-5

And organize it

q=-3 2/5

Never forget to do q=(answer)

Hopefully it helps.

A couch and coffee table cost a total of $1080. The cost of the couch is two times the cost of the coffee table. Find the cost o
Alborosie

Answer:

$720

$360

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of couch be A and that of coffee table be B

Given couch and coffee table cost $1080

That’s

A + B = $1080

Also, the cost of couch A is 2 times the cost of coffeee table B.

That’s

A = 2B

We now have two equations

A + B = 1080

A = 2B

Now ,substitute 2B for A in the first equation .

We have

A + B = 1080

2B + B = 1080

3B = 1080

Divide both sides by 3

3B/3 = 1080/3

B = 360

The coffee table cost $360

Remember A = 2B

Therefore

A = 2 x $360

A = $720

The couch cost $720 while the coffee table cost $360
