X = shorter piece
y = longer piece = 5x
shorter piece + longer piece = 60
x + 5x = 60
6x = 60
x = 60/6
x = 10 in. <== shorter piece
y = 5x
y = 5(10)
y = 50 in. <== longer piece
Answer:
Slope(m) = 16
Y intercept (c) = 23
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Points : (x1, y1) = (2, 55)
(x2, y2) = (4, 87)
Using two point form to calculate slope:


m = 16
To find y intercept:
Take any one point ans slope :
Using slope point formula:
y = mx + c
87 = 16(4) + c
Solving for c:
c = 23

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Number of drivers Screened = 671
Number Arrested for Driving While Intoxicating = 7
If the W denotes the event of screening a driver and getting someone who is intoxicated.
The Probability of W, 
- The Probability
is the probability of the event of screening a driver and getting someone who is not intoxicated. Simply put, it is the Probability of the Complement of W.
From Probability Theorem,

Answer:
See explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming you want to find the 3rd term of the geometric progression defined explicitly by
, then we have to substitute n=3 to obtain:

This will give us:

We evaluate to obtain:
