The first and seconds answer would be correct, the other answers do not solve for x explicitly (by itself) or they solve for x incorrectly

3. URGENT HELP!!

Equation of a line formula: y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
x₁ and y₁ are coordinates of one point on the line
m is the gradient of the line
m = Δy/Δx = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)
If we say:
(x₁, y₁) = (0, -1)
(x₂, y₂) = (2, 3)
then:
m = (3 - -1)/(2 - 0)
= 4/2
= 2
So, the equation of the line is (using the formula):
y - -1 = 2(x - 0)
y + 1 = 2x
y = 2x - 1

3b)
Any two given lines will always intersect unless they have the same gradient, i.e. they are parallel;
So, to determine if the two lines will intersect all we have to do is work out the gradient of the second line and see if it is the same as the the gradient of the first (which we worked out to be 2) or not;
So, for the second line:
(x₁, y₁) = (-3, 3)
(x₂, y₂) = (-2, 4)
And so:
m = (4 - 3)/(-2 - -3)
= 1/1
= 1
1 ≠ 2;
The gradients of the two lines are not the same;
They are not parallel;
They will intersect at some point.

                 ||   Male   ||   Female
0 ≤ x ≤ 1   ||     66     ||        2
2 ≤ x ≤ 7   ||    583    ||      160
8 ≤ x         ||     89     ||       42
Total               738            204
x = number of times a day hand are washed

4b)
66/738 × 100 = 8.94..... ⇒ 9%
9% of males wash their hands once or less per day
2/204 × 100 = 0.980..... ⇒ 1%
1% of females wash their hands once or less per day

89/738 × 100 = 12.0..... ⇒ 12%
12% of males wash their hands 8 or more times per day
42/204 × 100 = 20.5..... ⇒ 21%
21% of females wash their hands 8 or more times per day

On average, it appears that females tend to wash their hands more frequently;
However, the fact that significantly less women reported could mean the data is not suitable to be used to compare the number of hand washes between males and females. <span />

Ok this is kinda difficult so if i confuse you im so sorry.
x/5=10
to get rid of the 5 you have to multiply the 5 by itself and the 10 by 5. that looks like this=> x/5(5)=10(5)
then you end up with x=50 because you got rid of the 5 by multiplying it with the ten. Anyways to sum it up x=10
