<h2>Answer:    slope = - 95</h2><h2> </h2>

Step-by-step explanation:    

      The question gives us two points, (87, 91) and (88, -4), from which we can find the slope and later the equation of the line.

<u> </u>

<u>Finding the Slope</u>  

The slope of the line (m) = (y₂ - y₁) ÷ (x₂ - x₁)      

                                        =  (91 - (- 4)) ÷ (87 - 88)    

                                        =  - 95

<em><u /></em>

<em><u /></em>

<em><u>Checking my answer:</u></em>

<em>Finding the Equation</em>  

We can now use the point-slope form (y - y₁) = m(x - x₁)) to write the equation for this line:  

                                ⇒  y - (-4) =  - 95 (x - 88)

                                       y + 4 =  - 95 (x - 88)

<em>To test my answer, I have included a Desmos Graph that I graphed using the information provided in the question and my answer.</em>

Answer: b^2+h^2=x^2

Step-by-step explanation: The line labeled x here is called the hypotenuse. There are a few ways to calculate the hypotenuse, but the most common way is by using this equation: b^2+h^2=x^2.

I hope this helped! ;) Good luck on your test or quiz or whatever you have to do in order to pass!

A CD has a 5% chance of being a smash hit and profiting $5.2 million, a 50% chance of being a modest success and profiting $0.9
Zinaida [17]
The probability of profiting $5.2 million is 5% = 0.05

The probability of profiting $0.9 million is 50% = 0.5

The probability of breaking even, meaning no profit gain, is 45% = 0.45

Expected profit values of the CD is given by
(0.05×5.2) + (0.5×0.9) + (0.45×0) = 0.26+0.45+0 = 0.71 million
