Answer:

  3x -7y = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have the same slope.

Changing the constant in a linear equation like this only changes the y-intercept. It has no effect on the slope of the line. So, we can change the constant from 4 to 0 and we will have a line with the same slope, parallel to the original, but with a different y-intercept.

The "standard form" of the equation of a line has the leading coefficient positive. We can make that be the case by using the multiplication property of equality, multiplying both sides of the equation by -1.

Parallel line:

  -3x +7y = 0

In standard form:

  3x -7y = 0

Madison bought a dress priced at $98.25. The dress was 20% off. If she purchases the dress, what would the discounted price be?
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

C. $19.65

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to find 20% of $98.25

This is equal to,

20% * $98.25                Because of usually means multiplication

= .20 * 98.25                 Because .20 = 20%

= 19.65!

Mina asked four friends to explain how each one solved the expression . Here are their explanations:
Fed [463]

Ok let me answer this question by finding it's solution first.

The two numbers are 15.75 and 176.3

First we will compare the numbers.

1. A=176.3

2. B=15.75

one's place of A is greater than once place of B.

tens place of A is greater than tens place of B.

Hundred place of A is greater than hundred place of B.

So, A>B

So  we will subtract 15.75 from 176.3.

176.30 -15.75=

176.30     ----A

- 1 5.75     ----B

Hundreths place of A - Hundreths place of B =  0-5=10-5=5

Tenth place of A  - Tenth place of B =12-7=5

ones place of A - ones place of B=5-5=0

Tens place of A - Tens place of B =7-1=6

Leave 1 as it is.

So the solution is 160.55

Now coming back to the Explanation by four friends of Mina

Ivy’s explanation: I lined up the numbers to subtract. [As i have explained above you have to find first which number is bigger , then first you must write bigger number then if the bigger number has  only tenth place value mark hundred place as 0 and then start subtracting from Right to left.]

Hannah’s explanation: I lined up the two decimals according to place value. I put a 0 in the hundredths place to make it easier for me to subtract.   [ As i said above first you have to choose which number is bigger then you can proceed as you have done.]

Jose’s explanation: I lined up the two decimals according to place value   [ Jose you have made same mistake, first find which number is bigger then line up the number according to their place value, write the bigger number first then start subtracting as i have explained above.]

An’s explanation: I counted up from 15.75 to 176.3 to find the difference. I underlined each number I added on each line.   [ Too lengthy and very time consuming. Use the method as i have explined above.]

There are 3 red marbles, 5 green marbles, and 2 blue marbles in a jar. Event A is defined as drawing a red marble from the jar o
Anastaziya [24]

P(B/A) is \frac{5}{9} in the simplest form

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us explain how to solve the problem

  • P(B|A) is called the "Conditional Probability" of B given A
  • Conditional probability is the probability of one event occurring with some relationship to one or more other events that means event A has already happened, now what is the chance of event B
  • The formula for conditional probability is P(B|A) = P(A and B)/P(A), where P(A and B) is P(A) . P(B given A occurred)

∵ There are 3 red marbles, 5 green marbles, and 2 blue

   marbles in the jar

∴ The total number of the marbles in the jar = 3 + 5 + 2 = 10

∵ Two marbles are drawn from the bag, one after the other without

   replacement

- That means red is already occurred when green is happened,

  so it is a "Conditional Probability" of green given red

  P(B/A) = P(A and B)/P(A)

∵ Event A is defined as drawing a red marble from the jar on

   the first draw

∴ P(A) = P(red)

∵ P(red) = \frac{3}{10}

∴ P(A) = \frac{3}{10}

∵ Event B is defined as drawing a green marble on the second draw

∴ P(B) = P(green)

- The number of marbles after the red is chosen is 9

∵ P(green) = \frac{5}{9}

∴ P(B) = \frac{5}{9}

- Find P( A and B)

∴ P(A and B) = ( \frac{3}{10} ) . ( \frac{5}{9} )

∴ P(A and B) = \frac{15}{90}

- Simplify the fraction by divide up and down by 15

∴ P(A and B) = \frac{1}{6}

∵ P(B|A) = P(A and B)/P(A)

- Substitute the values of P(A and B) and P(A) in the rule above

∴ P(B/A) = \frac{\frac{1}{6}}{\frac{3}{10}}

- Simplify the fraction

∵ \frac{1}{6} ÷ \frac{3}{10} = \frac{1}{6} × \frac{10}{3} = \frac{10}{18}

- Divide up and down by 2

∴ P(B/A) = \frac{5}{9}

P(B/A) is \frac{5}{9} in the simplest form
