Answer:

  y -2 = -2/3(x +4)

Step-by-step explanation:

There are several different forms of the equation for a line. Each is useful in its own way. Here, the line crosses the y-axis at a point between integer values, so using that intercept point could be problematical. That suggests the "point-slope" form of the equation for a line would be a better choice.

That form is ...

  y -k = m(x -h) . . . . . . . line with slope m through point (h, k)

__

The two marked points are (-4, 2) and (5, -4). All we need is the slope.

The slope is given by the formula ...

  m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1) . . . . . . . . where the given points are (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)

  m = (-4 -2)/(5 -(-4)) = -6/9 = -2/3

Using the first point, the equation for the line can now be written as ...

  y -2 = -2/3(x -(-4))

  y -2 = -2/3(x +4)

Which expression represents the following statement: x is no less than 0. x>0 x≤0 x≥0 x<0
ki77a [65]

Answer: x ≥ 0

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's define the symbols used:

a < x              (this means that a is strictly smaller than x)

a > x              (this means that a is strictly larger than x)

a ≤ x              (this means that a is smaller than or equal to x)

a ≥ x              (this means that a is larger than or equal to x)

Now we have the statement "x is no less than 0"

Then x can be equal to zero, or larger than zero, but never smaller than zero.

Looking at the symbols above, we know that we need to use:

x ≥ 0

(this is equivalent to the statement)

Aakesh has two bags of marbles. The first bag contains 6 red marbles, 4 blue
Orlov [11]

The answer for the 1st bag is option B = 1/3

The answer for the 2nd bag is option C = 5/9

Number of marbles in 1st bag - 15 (6 red, 4 blue & 5 green)

Number of marbles in 2nd bag - 9 (3 red, 1 blue & 5 green)

The formula of probability = Total number of events in the outcome /total number of outcomes.

Now the probability that Aakesh will select a green marble from the 1st bag is 5(green marbles)/15(total number of marbles in 1st bag)

That is 5/15=1/3

Now the probability that Aakesh will select a green marble from the 2nd bag is 5(green marbles)/9(total number of marbles in 1st bag)

That is 5/9

If you roll a number cube two times, what is the probability of rolling an even on the first roll and a four on the second roll?
Bad White [126]

Answer:

1/12

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is a ratio derived as the number of possible outcomes divided by the total outcome.

On a number cube, the even sides are 2, 4 and 6. This means that the possible outcome for rolling an even is 3 while the total outcome is 6. Hence the probability of rolling an even P(E)

= 3/6

The probability of rolling a 4  P(4)

= 1/6 (4 appears on one side)

Hence  the probability of rolling an even on the first roll and a four on the second roll

P(En4) = 3/6 * 1/6

= 3/36

= 1/12
