Mathematics

Fittoniya [83]3 years ago

Given:
y = -2x + 4
2y = -6x + 12

2y = -6x + 12
2(-2x + 4) = -6x + 12
-4x + 8 = -6x + 12
-4x + 6x = 12 - 8
2x = 4
x = 4/2
x = 2

y = -2x + 4
y = -2(2) + 4
y = -4 + 4
y = 0

2y = -6x + 12 ; x = 2 ; y = 0
2(0) = -6(2) + 12
0 = -12 + 12
0 = 0

What is slope-intercept form? <br> Why do we write equations using this form?
Brums [2.3K]
Slope intercept form is y=mx+b
m=slope
b=y-intercept

the slope is the rate of change of the graph, basically rise/run (change in y divided by change in x)

the y intercept is where the graph intercepts the y axis





we usually use this form because we can find the slope and find where it hits the y axis.
there are other forms that may be helpful later on, but this one is usually the easiest form to find from a graph

3)There are 9 colorful socks in a drawer: 3 green, 2
Lelu [443]

Answer:

1/24 chance

Step-by-step explanation:

To begin you would need to find the probability of picking a green sock which would be 3/9; and you could simplify this to 1/3.

After that you need to find the probability of picking a purple sock out of the 8 left, which would provide you with 1/8. To find the probability of both you would multiply 1/8 by 1/3 to find the combined probability which would leave you with 1/24.
