Equation of the line is a way to represent the a line in a equation or algebraic from which is the set of the line thorough witch the line passes.

Given information-

The point through which the line passes are (2, 8) and (4, 12).

To find the equation of the line, the standard form of the equation of the line must be obtained.

<h3>Equation of the line</h3>

Equation of the line is a way to represent the a line in a equation or algebraic from which is the set of the line thorough witch the line passes.

The standard form of the equation of the line can be given as,

(y-y_1)=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} (x-x_1)

Where (x_1,y_1) and (x_2,y_2) are the points through which the line passes.

Thus the equation of the line which passes through the points (2, 8) and (4, 12) can be given as,

(y-8) &=\dfrac{12-8}{4-2} (x-2)\\(y-8) &=\dfrac{4}{2} (x-2)\\2y-16 &=4x-8\\2y &=4x-8+16\\

Divide by 2 both the side,

y=2x-4

Thus the equation of the line which passes through the points (2, 8) and (4, 12) is,

y=2x-4

Hence the option 3 is the correct option.

A square has a perimeter of 28 inches. Find the area of the square.
sasho [114]

Answer:

A = 49 in^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a square is found by

P = 4s where s is the side length

28 = 4s

Divide each side by 4

28/4 = 4s/4

7 =s

We want to find the area

A = s^2 where s is the side length

A = 7^2

A = 7^2

A = 49 in^2

the perimeter of a rectangle brownie pan is 50 Inches. the lenght of the pan is 5 less than twice the width. write a system of e
Serga [27]

Answer: The system of equation is,

2 ( x + y ) = 50

x = 2 y - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represents the length of the rectangular brownie and y represents the width of the rectangular brownie.

Thus, the perimeter of the brownie = 2 ( x + y )

But, According to the question,

Perimeter of the brownie = 50,

2 ( x + y ) = 50

The length of the brownie is 5 less than twice the width,

That is, x = 2 y - 5

Thus, the required system of equation is,

2 ( x + y ) = 50 , x = 2 y - 5

A bag contains blue and pink balls. There are 8 more blue balls than pink balls. Identify the expression that represents the pro
8_murik_8 [283]
Let 
b---> the original amount of blue balls in the bag
p---> the original amount of pink balls in the bag

we know that
b=8+p
p=5
so
b=8+5----> b=13

step 1
Find the total of balls originally in the bag
total =13+5-----> 18

step 2
find <span>the probability that a person will pick a blue ball first
</span>Find P(b)
P (b)=13/18

step 3
Find the probability that a person will pick a pink ball second <span>without replacement
the total of balls now is (18-1)-------> 17
P(p)=5/17

step 4
Find </span><span>the probability that a person will pick a blue ball first and then a pink ball without replacement 
</span>(13/18)*(5/17)-----> (13*5)/(18*17)------> 65/306-----> 0.21

the answer is
0.21
