Find the equation of a line that passes through the point (-2,1) and has a gradient of -3.
zavuch27 [327]

A straight line passing through the point (-2,1) and having a gradient of -3 yields the equation y = -3x - 5.

We know that a straight line is an infinitely long line with no curves on it. A straight line's equation is

y = mx + c...(1), where m is the gradient of the straight line and c is a constant.

Given that the gradient of the given straight line = m = -3.

Putting this value in (1), we get

y = -3x + c ...(2)

Again, the given straight line passes through the point (-2,1). So, we can put x = -2 and y = 1 to get the value of the constant c.

So, 1 = (-3)(-2) + c

i.e. 6 + c = 1

i.e. c = 1 - 6 = -5

(2) can be written as

y = -3x - 5

Therefore the equation of the given straight line is

y = -3x - 5

Korolek [52]

Answer:

469.25

Step-by-step explanation:

peter=x

david=x+1.50

x+(x+1.50)=940

x=940-x-1.50

2x=940-1.50

2x=938.5

x=938.5/2

x=469.25

Answer:

The second answer, and possibly the first answer as also true.

She did run a test that would indicate its an unbalanced dice, but this wasn't tried out with a different person throwing the dice.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because from the computer generator results we see 11 of the 25 values are estimating at 1/5 when we know dice are 1/6 and more than 1/2 show just under 1/5 which balances this to be 1/6

But there are 9/25 tests that showed values under 10 throws found a 6 in 9/25 events = 1/3 approx out of 1/10 of the throws, and 1/3 is still a higher value than 1/6 of the multiple throws so indicates 100 throws would not be enough to tell as we cannot possibly assume her results are comparable with a computer generator.As the computer generator completed 25 x 100 throws and have just compared only x10 in relation to 1/10 of the events of the generated computer.  This showing 9 of the 25 (100) throw events in relation scores 1/3 of the results a 6. The answer is she would need to throw somewhere between 1000 and 3000 to compare to the computers results.
