Answer:
13 pizzas he bought
Step-by-step explanation:
315.50 - 127 = 188.50 then do 188.50 divided by 14.50 = 13
Hope this helps :)
The probability that you will guess the first answer correctly = 1/2 = 0.5
The probability that you will guess the second answer correctly = 1/2 = 0.5
The probability that you will guess the third answer correctly = 1/2 = 0.5
The probability that you will guess all three answers correctly is
(0.5) x (0.5) x (0.5) = 0.125 = 12.5% .

Number of possible ways to score 0 right out of 3 questions: 1 way
Number of possible ways to score 1 right out of 3 questions: 3 ways

Statistically, if your answers are all pure guesses,
then on the average, the score you expect is
(0 + 33-1/3 + 33-1/3 + 33-1/3 + 66-2/3 + 66-2/3 + 66-2/3 + 100) / 8
= 400 / 8
= 50% .
If you're happy with that score, great !
Go to the movies the night before the test,

Answer:
y = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
The standard form of equation of a line is y = mx+b
m is the slope
b is the y intercept
Get the coordinate of the point of interception of the line 2x - y = 9 and 3x - 7y = 19
Make y the subject of the formula in both expressions
For 2x - y = 9
- y = 9- 2x
y = 2x - 9
Similarly for 3x - 7y = 19
-7y = 19 - 3x
7y = 3x - 19
y = 3/7 x - 19/7
Equating both expressions
2x - 9 = 3/7 x - 19/7
Multiply through ny 7
14x - 63 = 3x - 19
14x - 3x = -19 + 63
11x = 44
x = 44/11
x = 4
Since y =2x - 9
y = 2(4) - 9
y = 8-9
y = -1
Hence the coordinate of intersection is at (4, -1)
Get the equation of the line passing through (-3, -1) and (4, -1)
Slope m = -1+1/4+3
m = 0/7
m = 0
Get the intercept
Substitute m = 0 and (-3, -1) into y = mx+b
-1 = 0(-3) + b
-1 = b
b = -1
Get the required equation
Recall that y = mx + b
y = 0x + (-1)
y = -1
Hence the required equation is y = -1
