Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

slope of -2 means the slope is -2/1

from (3, - 8) you can find the y intercept by going backwords until x = 0

(2,-6)

(1,-4)

(0,-2)

so the y intercept is -2

y = -2x - 2

There are 375 books sold at Sid's Bookstore. The table below summarizes these books by genre. This info is presented in circle g

loris [4]

When you plot the data in a pie graph, it looks like that shown in the picture. A circle is formed when you draw a point and connect it from end to end forming a complete revolution. One revolution equals 360°. Therefore, each piece of pie for each type of book is a fraction of one revolution. The fraction can be determined by dividing the number for a specific type of book to the total number of books. Specifically, the fraction for the Self Help slice would be 90/375 which is equal to 0.24 or 24%. Then, 24% of 360 is 86.4. Therefore, the central angle formed by the Self Help slice is 86.4°.

A box contains 5 red balls, 6 white balls and 9 black balls. Two balls are drawn at

valina [46]

Answer:

$P(Same)=\frac{61}{190}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Red = 5$

$White = 6$

$Black = 9$

Required

The probability of selecting 2 same colors when the first is not replaced

The total number of ball is:

$Total = 5 + 6 + 9$

$Total = 20$

This is calculated as:

$P(Same)=P(Red\ and\ Red) + P(White\ and\ White) + P(Black\ and\ Black)$

So, we have:

$P(Same)=\frac{n(Red)}{Total} * \frac{n(Red) - 1}{Total - 1} + \frac{n(White)}{Total} * \frac{n(White) - 1}{Total - 1} + \frac{n(Black)}{Total} * \frac{n(Black) - 1}{Total - 1}$
