Solution:

Step-1: Find the slope of the line.

Formula: Rise/Run = y₂ - y₁/x₂ - x₁

y₂ - y₁/x₂ - x₁ = Slope
=> -2 - (-1)/4 - 0 = Slope
=> -2 + 1/4 - 0 = Slope
=> -1/4 = Slope

Step-2: Find the y-intercept of the line.

The y-intercept of the line is the point that intersects the y-axis.

=> y-intercept = -1

Step-3: Create the equation.

=> y = (m)x + (b)
=> $y = -\frac{1}{4} x - 1$

Y=1/4x - 1 since the y intercept is at -1

Number of people who speak Spanish:
Spanish = 8 + 4 = 12
Number of people who speak Chinese:
Chinese = 5 + 6 = 11
Number of people who speak both languages:
Both = 3 + 2 = 5
Adding we have:
12 + 11 + 5 = 28
Answer:
28

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{width=12cm}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$l-length\\w-width\\P-perimeter$

The formula of perimeter of the rectangle:

$P=2l+2w=2(l+w)$

Substitute:

$l=6w\\\\P=168cm$

$168=2(6w+w)\\168=2(7w)\\168=14w\qquad|\text{divide both sides by 14}\\\\\dfrac{168}{14}=\dfrac{14w}{14}\\\\12=w\Rightarrow w=12(cm)$

Nastasia [14]

Answer:

b. continuous random variable

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed is a common continuous variable and the value is always random.

It is continuous because there is always another speed value between two speed values. For example, a car travelling at the rate of 50 mils per hour will either increase or decrease its speed at a continuous rate. No speed can drop suddenly form 50mph to 20mph.

It is random because although there might be speed limit, the speed recorded by the Highway patrol officer willl always be random in value.
