write the equation of the line, with the given properties, in slope-intercept form.Slope=-6, through (-8,8)
The given slope is:
[tex]m=-6[/tex]And the point:
[tex](-8,8)[/tex]we label the coordinates as follows:
[tex]\begin{gathered} x_1=-8 \\ y_1=8 \end{gathered}[/tex]And now, we use the slope-point formula, which is:
[tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex]substituting the known values of slope m and the point:
[tex]y-8=-6(x-(-8))[/tex]We need to solve this for y to find the slope intercept form (which is y=mx+b):
[tex]\begin{gathered} y-8=-6(x+8) \\ y-8=-6x-48 \\ y=-6x-48+8 \\ y=-6x-40 \end{gathered}[/tex]The slope-intercept form is:
y = -6x - 40
A card is selected from a standard deck of cards. What is the probability of selecting a King or an even card?
Given:
A card is selected from a standard deck of cards.
Required:
We need to find the probability of selecting a King or an even card.
Explanation:
The sample space =the total number of cards = 52.
[tex]n(S)=52[/tex]Let A be an event of selection a king.
The number of cards that is king = 4.
The favourable outcomes =The number of the card king
[tex]n(A)=4[/tex]The probability of selecting a king
[tex]P(A)=\frac{n(A)}{n(S)}=\frac{4}{52}[/tex]Let B be an event of selection an even card.
There are 5 even values (2,4,6,8,10) and 4 of each in the deck.
The number of cards that is even card=20.
The favourable outcomes =The number of the even card
[tex]n(B)=20[/tex]The probability of selecting an even card
[tex]P(B)=\frac{n(B)}{n(S)}=\frac{20}{52}[/tex]
The probability of selecting a King or an even card is
[tex]=P(A)+P(B)[/tex][tex]=\frac{4}{52}+\frac{20}{52}=\frac{24}{52}[/tex][tex]=\frac{6}{13}[/tex]Final answer:
The probability of selecting a King or an even card 6/13.

A job placement agency advertised that last year its clients, on average, had a starting salary of $39,500. Assuming that average refers to the mean, which of the following claims must be true based on this information?Note: More than one statement could be true. If none of the statements is true, mark the appropriate box.Last year some of their clients had a starting salary of at least $39,500 .Two years ago some of their clients had a starting salary of at least $39,500 .Last year, the number of their clients who had a starting salary of more than $39,500 was equal to the number of their clients who had a starting salary of less than $39,500.Last year at least one of their clients had a starting salary of more than $42,000.Last year at least one of their clients had a starting salary of exactly $39,500.None of the above statements are true.
In the question, it is given that the average salary is $39,500.
In consideration of the first statement
(a) , last year, some of their clients had a starting of atleast $39500 ...this is true
(b) they have mentioned the case of last two years, this is also incorrect.
( c )if the client has lesser than $39,500 salary, and the average salary is $39,500 , then average will be less than $39,500, then statement a is not true..
(d) Last year at least one of their clients had a starting salary of more than $42,000., this is more than the average , but could be true, but it is false as $42000 will be more than the average of $39,500
(e) Last year at least one of their clients had a starting salary of exactly $39,500. ... this is not true, as exactly would not allow the $39,500 to be any less.
• So correct options would be A

Find the mean and median and determine if the mean or median is the better measure of central tendency.5,0,5,2,0,10,7,8,10,21,5,8,2,5,3,5Select the correct answer below:Mean = 5, Median = 6The median is the better measure of central tendency.Mean = 5, Median = 6The mean is the better measure of central tendency.Mean = 6, Median = 5The median is the better measure of central tendency.Mean = 6, Median = 5The mean is the better measure of central tendency.
Explanation
we will begin by finding the mean and median of the data set
The mean is simply the average of the set, which will be
[tex]mean=\frac{5+0+5+2+0+10+7+8+10+21+5+8+2+5+3+5}{16}=\frac{96}{16}=6[/tex]The median is
[tex]\begin{gathered} \mathrm{The\:median\:is\:the\:value\:separating\:the\:higher\:half\:of\:the\:data\:set,\:from\:the\:lower\:half.} \\ \mathrm{If\:the\:number\:of\:terms\:is\:odd,\:then\:the\:median\:is\:the\:middle\:element\:of\:the\:sorted\:set} \\ If\:the\:number\:of\:terms\:\:is\:even,\:then\:the\:median\:is\:the\:arithmetic\:mean\:of\:the\:two\:middle\:elements\:of\:the\:sorted\:set \end{gathered}[/tex]Thus, we have the median as 5
To check which is a better measure, we will have to check the skewness
The skew value is 1.51
This means it is positively skewed
Thus
If the distribution is positively skewed then the mean is greater than the median which is in turn greater than the mode.
Therefore, the answer is

Jalen measured a bookcase to be 8.4 ft the actual measurement is 5.6 ft what is Gary percent error
We start by calculating the difference between the expected measured value and the value measured by Gary:
8.4 ft - 5.6 ft = 2.8 ft
Now we estimate what 2.8 ft is of the actual measurement 8.4 ft. That is:
2.8 / 8.4 = 0.33333... this is written in percent form as: 33.33%
This is the percent error.

Given the function:
[tex]f(x)=5x^2-7(4x+3)[/tex]we can find f(3) by making x = 3 and solving for the term f. In this case, we have the following:
[tex]\begin{gathered} f(3)=5(3)^2-7(4(3)+3) \\ =5(9)-7(12+3)=45-7(15)=45-105=-60 \\ \Rightarrow f(3)=-60 \end{gathered}[/tex]therefore, f(3) = -60
[tex]x + y = - 2 \\ 3x - y = - 2[/tex]draw each line and estimate the solution.
We can draw each line by assuming that x = 0 and y = 0 and solve each case.
In the first equation, we have the following:
[tex]\begin{gathered} x+y=-2 \\ x=0\Rightarrow y=-2 \\ y=0\Rightarrow x=-2 \end{gathered}[/tex]notice that we have a pair of coordinate points (0,-2) and (-2,0). These two points will be useful when we draw the line.
Next, for the second equation we have:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 3x-y=-2 \\ x=0\Rightarrow-y=-2\Rightarrow y=2 \\ y=0\Rightarrow3x=-2\Rightarrow x=-\frac{2}{3} \end{gathered}[/tex]in this case we have the points (0,2) and (-2/3,0). Now, if we draw both lines on the coordinate plane we get the following:
notice that both lines intersect on the point (-1,-1). Thus, the solution of the system of equations is the point (-1,-1)
The cost of a pound of nails increased from $2.03 to $2.19. What is the percent of increase to the nearest whole-number percent?(Type an integer
Hello there. To solve this question, we'll have to remember some properties about percents.
We start with percent of increase: it is the difference between how much a thing is from another and 100%.
Now, to calculate this amount, we take the ratio of the numbers. In this case, the cost of a pound of nails.
Knowing it increased from $2.03 to $2.19, we calculate:
2.19/2.03 = 1.079
Multiply by 100% to find its amount in percent
1.079 * 100% = 107.9%
Now, we simply take the difference:
107.9% - 100% = 7.9%
Rounding this percent to the nearest whole-number percent, we get:
8%

Answer:
1 1/2 quarts of water
Explanation:
If she drinks 1/4 quart of water for every mile, in 6 miles, she will drink 6 times 1/4 quart of water, so
[tex]6\times\frac{1}{4}=\frac{6}{1}\times\frac{1}{4}=\frac{6\times1}{1\times4}=\frac{6}{4}[/tex]Now, we can simplify the fraction dividing the numerator and denominator by 2
[tex]\frac{6}{4}=\frac{6\div2}{4\div2}=\frac{3}{2}[/tex]Now to convert 3/2 to a mixed number, let's divide 3 by 2
Since 1 is the quotient and 1 is the remainder, the mixed number is
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{3}{2}=\text{Quotient}\frac{\text{ Remainder}}{2} \\ \frac{3}{2}=1\frac{1}{2} \end{gathered}[/tex]So, the answer is;
1 1/2 quarts of water.

a cube has 6 faces that are red, yellow, or blue. maggie rolls the cube 20 times and records the color facing up.
From the information given, the number of outcomes from 20 trials are
Red = 7
Yellow = 6
Blue = 7
From the outcomes, since the number of outcomes for red and blue are equal, it means that the number of red and blue faces would be the same. The only option where they are the same is the last option. Since the total number of faces is 6, the remaining face which is yellow is possibly 2. Thus, the correct option is
The cube has 2 red faces, 2 blue faces and 2 yellow faces

We want to solve the following system of equations.x^2 + y^2 = 1y = 2x + 2One of the solutions to this system is (-1,0).Find the other solution.
Answer:
(-3/5, 4/5)
Explanation:
Given the system of equations:
[tex]\begin{gathered} x^2+y^2=1 \\ y=2x+2 \end{gathered}[/tex]First, we substitute y=2x+2 into the first equation to obtain:
[tex]\begin{gathered} x^2+(2x+2)^2=1 \\ x^2+(2x+2)(2x+2)=1 \\ x^2+4x^2+4x+4x+4=1 \\ 5x^2+8x+4-1=0 \\ 5x^2+8x+3=0 \end{gathered}[/tex]We solve the derived quadratic equation for x,
[tex]\begin{gathered} 5x^2+8x+3=0 \\ 5x^2+5x+3x+3=0 \\ 5x(x+1)+3(x+1)=0 \\ (5x+3)(x+1)=0 \\ 5x+3=0\text{ or }x+1=0 \\ x=-\frac{3}{5}\text{ or -1} \end{gathered}[/tex]We then solve for the corresponding values of y using any of the equations.
[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{When x=-1} \\ y=2x+2 \\ y=2(-1)+2 \\ y=0 \\ When\text{ }x=-\frac{3}{5} \\ y=2(-\frac{3}{5})+2 \\ =\frac{4}{5} \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, the solutions o this system are:
(-1,0) and (-3/5, 4/5).
The other solution is (-3/5, 4/5).
Suppose you ride your bicycle to the library traveling at .50 km/min. It takes you 25minutes to get to the library. How far did you travel
Answer:
50km
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that every minute we travel .5 km....
[tex]\frac{1 min}{.50 km}[/tex]
But we want to know how far we traveled in 25 mins
[tex]\frac{25 mins}{? km}[/tex]
So we go and do....
[tex]\frac{1 min}{.50 km} * \frac{25 mins}{? km}[/tex]
Then we have to divide 25 by .50
[tex]\frac{25 mins}{.50 km}[/tex]
Which Gives us
50 so he traveled 50km
Answer:
12.5km
Step-by-step explanation:
Hey! Let's help you with your question here!
We can begin by figuring out what we know!
Known InformationBicycle traveling at .50km/min (0.50km/min)It takes 25 minutes to get to the library.What we don't know and solving for itWhat we don't know is the distance traveled based on the given time. Now, what do we do? Well, we already know that the bicycle is traveling at a distance of .50km per minute and it takes us 25 minutes to get to the library. All we need to do here is take the distance per minute and multiply it by the total amount of minutes it takes to reach the destination. It would look something like this:
[tex]=(0.50km/s)*25[/tex]
[tex]=0.50*25[/tex]
[tex]=12.5[/tex]
Therefore, we can see that if we travel at a distance of .50km/min for 25 total minutes, we get a final distance of 12.5km.
