Chocolate chip and peanut butter cookies are randomly chosen from a cookie jar and placed onto a plate. The first plate had four

chocolate chip cookies and one peanut butter cookie. A second plate was prepared with 2 chocolate chip cookies and P peanut butter cookies. If the total probability of drawing a chocolate chip cookie from the first plate and then the second plate is 8/25, how many peanut butter cookies, P, are on the second plate? PLEASE HELP THIS IS A FORMATIVE I HAVE TO FINISH THIS TEST AT 12:55, AND IT IS 12:29 RIGHT NOW PLEASE HELP <:(

Answer:

3 peanut cookies

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Plate 1:

Number of chocolate chip = 4

Number of peanut butter cookies = 1

Probability of drawing chocolate chip cookies from plate 1 :

Probability =( number of required outcome / Total possible outcomes)

P(chocolate chip) = 4 / 5

Plate 2:

Number of chocolate chip = 2

Number of peanut butter cookies = p

P(chocolate chip) = 2 / (2 + p)

Probability of drawing chocolate chip from plate 1 and then plate 2 = 8/ 25

(4/5) * 2/(2+p) = 8/ 25

8 / (10 + 5p) = 8/ 25

8(10 + 5p) = 8 * 25

80 + 40p = 200

40p = 200 - 80

40p = 120

p = 3

The slope of a line is 1, and the y-intercept is -1. What is the equation of the line written in slope-intercept form?
Scilla [17]
The slope-intercept form is:
y = mx + b
where m = slope, and b = y-intercept.
You need a slope of 1, so m = 1.
You need a y-intercept of -1, so b = -1.
Replace m with 1 and b with -1 in the slope intercept form to get

y = 1x + (-1)

which simplifies to

y = x - 1

I SHALL REWARD THEE WITH BRAINLIEST Change -2Y - 2X = -6 to the slope intercept form of the equation of a line (I NEED EXPLANATI
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

y = -x + 3    

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, you need to memorize several forms of the equation of a straight line.  Here you have -2y - 2x = -6 in "standard form" and want the equivalent equation in "slope intercept form," y = mx + b.

To get this, solve the first equation for y by dividing all three terms by -2:

y + x = 3.

Then solve this result for y:

y = -x + 3    

This is the desired equation in slope-intercept form.
