Answer:
I just want points hahahaha
The 20% statement is useless
80% of $295 is what?
80%×295=??
.80 × 295 = $236.00 in savings
First, find the probability of each event:
1) the probability that the spinner will land on a 7.
Since the spinner is split 4 equal sections and there is only 1 sector with 7, we can say the probability of getting a 7 is 1/4 as there is only 1 of 7 out of the total of 4 sections.
<em>and</em>
2) the probability that the spinner will land on B.
Since the spinner is split into 3 equal sections, and there is only 1 sector for B, we can say the probability of getting B is 1/3.
To find the probability of 2 events, we need to multiply the two probabilities.
1/4*1/3 = 1/12
So the answer is 1/12.
This problem can be readily solved if we are familiar with the point-slope form of straight lines:
y-y0=m(x-x0) ...................................(1)
where
m=slope of line
(x0,y0) is a point through which the line passes.
We know that the line passes through A(3,-6), B(1,2)
All options have a slope of -4, so that should not be a problem. In fact, if we check the slope=(yb-ya)/(xb-xa), we do find that the slope m=-4.
So we can check which line passes through which point:
a. y+6=-4(x-3)
Rearrange to the form of equation (1) above,
y-(-6)=-4(x-3) means that line passes through A(3,-6) => ok
b. y-1=-4(x-2) means line passes through (2,1), which is neither A nor B
****** this equation is not the line passing through A & B *****
c. y=-4x+6 subtract 2 from both sides (to make the y-coordinate 2)
y-2 = -4x+4, rearrange
y-2 = -4(x-1)
which means that it passes through B(1,2), so ok
d. y-2=-4(x-1)
this is the same as the previous equation, so it passes through B(1,2),
this equation is ok.
Answer: the equation y-1=-4(x-2) does NOT pass through both A and B.
Solution:
<u>Note that:</u>
To find the solution to the proportion, we will need to simplify the equation (4/7 = 10/x)
- 4/7 = 10/x
- => 4x = 70
- => x = 70/4 = 35/2 = 17.5.
Hoped this helped!
