Answer:

y = \frac{5}{2} x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}-x_{1}  }

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 2, 0) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (0, 5) ← 2 points on the line

m = \frac{5-0}{0-(-2)} = \frac{5}{0+2} = \frac{5}{2}

The line crosses the y- axis at (0, 5 ) ⇒ c = 5

y = \frac{5}{2} x + 5 ← equation of line

Answer:

y = 2.5x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope intercept form is y = mx + b, where m is the gradient or slope and b is the y-intercept.

To find the gradient/slope (m), we need to do change in y ÷ change in x.

  1. Pick two co-ordinates on the line; (0, 5) and (-2, 0)
  2. Subtract the y co-ordinates; 5 - 0 = 5
  3. Subtract the x-co-ordinates; 0 - -2 = 2
  4. Finally, divide 5 by 2; 5 ÷ 2 = 5/2 or 2.5

Now we have y = 2.5x + b. The y-intercept is simply where the line crosses the y axis (it crosses at 0,5). This means the equation of the line is y = 2.5x + 5.

Hope this helps!

Well, its kind of obivious that 2x + 4 stands out, but I think you are asking why. Whereas all other lines shown are vertical or horizontal, 2x+4 is diagonal.

Five distinct numbers are randomly distributed to players numbers 1 through 5. Whenever two playerscompare their numbers, the on
ad-work [718]

Answer:

Observe that the first and the second player have equal probability to get any of number. Using the principle of that symmetry, we have that  

P(X=0)=\frac{1}{2}

<u>Event X = 1 </u>means that the first player has got greater number than the second player, but not than the third player. So, choose any three numbers out of five of them and say that the minimal number out of these three goes to the second player, mean number to the first one and the largest to the third one. Permute remaining two numbers on remaining two people. Hence

P(X=1)=\frac{1}{6}

<u>Event X = 2</u> means that the first player has got greater number than the second and the third player, but not than the fourth player. So, choose any four numbers out of five of them and say that the minimal number and the next minimal out of these four go to the second and the third player (and permute them), third number to the first one and the largest to the fourth player. Give remaining number to the last person. Hence

P(X=2)=\frac{1}{12}

<u>Event X = 3</u> means that the first player has got greater number than the second, the third, and the forth player, but not than the fifth player. So, permute these five numbers as follows: give the highest to the last person, the second highest to the first, and permute remaining numbers on the remaining people. Hence  

P(X=3)=\frac{1}{20}

<u>Event X = 4</u> means basically the first player has won all the battles i.e, he has got the greatest number. Hence

P(X=4)=\frac{1}{5}

I think it is b because probability of 2 is 1/6 then probability of 4 is 1/6. If you times them together 1/6x1/6 it will equal 1/36 so b
