Answer:

y = 1/2x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have the same slope.

Therefore the new equation will have a slope(m) = 1/2

Substitute m = 1/2 and point (-2, 6) into y = mx + b to solve for "b"

y = mx + b

6 = 1/2(-2) + b

6 = -1 + b

7 = b

The new equation: y = mx + b

y = 1/2x + 7

The probability that a randomly selected student from the class has brown eyes , given they are male

$P(\frac{B}{M} ) = 0.3030$

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation:-

Given data

Brown Blue Hazel Green

Females 13 4 6 9

Males 10 2 9 12

Let 'B' be the event of brown eyes

Total number of males n(M) = 33

Let B/M be the event of randomly selected student from the class has brown eyes given they are male

The probability that a randomly selected student from the class has brown eyes , given they are male

$P(\frac{B}{M} ) = \frac{n(B)}{n(M)}$

From table the brown eyes from males = 10

$P(\frac{B}{M} ) = \frac{10}{33}$

$P(\frac{B}{M} ) = 0.3030$

Final answer:-

The probability that a randomly selected student from the class has brown eyes , given they are male

$P(\frac{B}{M} ) = 0.3030$
