Answer:

y = 2/5x + 24/5

*View graph to see the lines*

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 2/5x - 1/2

Parrel lines have the same slope

y = mx + b

y = 2/5x + b

2 = 2/5(-7) + b

2 = -14/5 +b

5(2 = -14/5 +b)

10 = -14 + 5b

+14   +14

24 = 5b

/5    /5

24/5 = b

y = 2/5x + 24/5

Hope this helps!

What is the experimental probability that both coins land on the same side on Isidro’s next toss
Musya8 [376]

Answer:

1/2, or 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 4 ways that 2 coins can fall...

Both heads (this satisfies our situation)

1st coin heads, 2nd coin tails

1st coin tails, 2nd coin heads

Both tails (this satisfies our situation)

We have 2 out of 4 ways to satisfy this situation, so our experimental probability is

P = 2/4 which reduces to

 P = 1/2 , or 0.5 as a decimal

Jessica, Lauren and Kimmie were paid a total of $120 for babysitting in a ratio of 2:3:5. How much less did Jessica make than Ki
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

Jessica makes $36 less than Kimmie  

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> amount paid to Jessica

y  ----> amount paid to Lauren

z ----> amount paid to Kimmie

we know that

x+y+z=120 ------> equation A

\frac{x}{y}=\frac{2}{3}

x=\frac{2}{3}y -----> equation B

\frac{y}{z}=\frac{3}{5}

z=\frac{5}{3}y -----> equation C

substitute equation B and equation C in equation A and solve for y

\frac{2}{3}y+y+\frac{5}{3}y=120

\frac{10}{3}y=120

y=120(3)/10

y=36

<em>Find the value of x</em>

x=\frac{2}{3}(36)=24

<em>Find the value of z</em>

z=\frac{5}{3}(36)=60

therefore

The  amount paid to Jessica was $24

The amount paid to Lauren was $36

The amount paid to Kimmie was $60

To find out how much less Jessica did than Kimmie, subtract the amount paid to Jessica from the amount paid to Kimmie.

\$60-\$24=\$36

therefore

Jessica makes $36 less than Kimmie
