Answer: 7/20 of the laundry still needs to be washed

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Find the gcf (greatest common factor) of 2/5 and 1/4, the greatest common factor of both 5, and 4, is 20.

2. Now, we have to use the 20, and rewrite the numbers. The 2/5 can be written as 8/20, and the 1/4 can be written as 5/20.

3. if Ms. Jones has washed 8/20 of the laundry, and her son has washed 5/20 of it, together they have washed 13/20 of it.

4. 20-13=7, so 7/20 of the laundry still needs to be washed.

Answer:

The equation of the line is y = -2x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets study how to make an equation of the line from two point

- If the line passes through points (x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2)

- The form of the equation is y = mx + c, where m is the slope of the

 line and c is the y-intercept

- The rule of the slope is m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

- The y-intercept means the line intersect the y-axis at point (0 ,c)

* Now lets solve the problem

∵ The line passes through points (-3 , 13) and (4 , -1)

- Let (-3 , 13) is (x1 , y1) and (4 , -1) is (x2 , y2)

∵ m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

∴ m = (-1 - 13)/(4 - -3)

∴ m = (-14)/7 = -2

- Lets write the form of the equation

∵ y = mx + c ⇒ substitute the value of m

∴ y = -2x + c

- To find the value of c use one of the two points to substitute the

  values of x and y in the equation

∵ The line passes through (4 , -1)

∴ -1 = -2(4) + c

∴ -1 = -8 + c ⇒ add 8 to both sides

∴ -1 + 8 = -8 + 8 + c

∴ 7 = c

∴ y = -2x + 7

* The equation of the line is y = -2x + 7

Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

\frac{6}{20}  =  \frac{3}{10?}

Step-by-step explanation:

total amount of acts = 4+10+6 = 20

amount of dancers = 6

probability of picking a dancer = number of dancers / total number of talents = 6/20 = 3/10
