Answer:

y = 4x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

first use the slope equation (y2-y1/x2-x1)

so 7 - 3 = 4 and 3 - 2 = 1 so the slope is 4

so we know the m is 4 so we can just plug one of the points into the slope intercept form (y = mx+b) so let's use the point (2,3). just plug in the values

3 = 4(2)+ b. 4 * 2 = 8 subtract 8 to the other side b = -5

so the answer is y = 4x - 5

hope this helps!

Answer:

Part A:

To find the total length of the two sides you want to add them together:

(3x^2-2x-1)+(9x+2x^2-2)= you want to combine all like terms

3x^2+2x^2=5x^2, you add your coefficients and keep the exponents the same

-2x+9x=7x, you would combine like terms

-1-2=-3, you would subtract according to Keep, Change, Change

You now have:

5x^2+7x-3= Sides A+B

5x^2+7x-3

Part B:

To find the length of the third side you want to take the perimeter of the triangle and subtract it from our answer in part A

(5x^3+4x^2-x-3)-(5x^2+7x-3)

When subtraction polynomials we want to change the subtraction sign to addition and change the signs of the other number to the opposite sign to prevent making mistakes from subtraction, so you're new equation will look like this:

(5x^3+4x^2-x-3)+(-5x^2-7x+3)

Now we add all like terms again

5x^3, doesn't combine with any others so we leave it the same

4x^2-5x^2=-x^2, subtract them but remember to keep the exponents the same

-x-7x=-8x, again subtract terms but keep variable

-3+3=0, they cancel out so we don't have to worry about putting anything for this one

So now we are left with

5x^3-x^2-8x as our length for the third side

Third side equals 5x^3-x^2-8x

Part C:

For part A we added to get the total of sides B and A

For part B we subtracted the total perimeter from the total lengths of B and A, to figure out what C equals

Hope this helps ;)

Use the counting techniques from the last chapter. A bag contains three red marbles, four green ones, one fluorescent pink one,

sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

The probability that she gets all the red ones, given that she gets the fluorescent pink one, is P=0.0035 or 0.35%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Susan grabs four marbles at random.

We have to calculate the probabilities that he picks the 3 red ones, given that she already picked the fluorescent pink.

If it is given that the fluorescent pink is already picked, we are left with three red marbles, four green ones, two yellow ones, and four orange ones. A total of 13 marbles.

The probability that the second marble is red is 3 in 13.

The probability that the third marble is also red is 2 (the red marbles that are left) in 12 (the total amount of marbles left), as there is a picking without replacement.

The probability that the fourth marble is 1 in 11.

Then, the probability that the 3 red marbles are picked, is:

$P=P_1\cdot P_2\cdot P_3=\dfrac{3}{13}\cdot \dfrac{2}{12}\cdot \dfrac{1}{11}=\dfrac{6}{1716}=0.0035$
