Answer:

y=-x-6

Step-by-step explanation:

Plug this into the equation y-y1=m(x-x1) where m is the slope. We know that it passes through (-8,2) so y1=2 and x1=-8. We also know that the slope is -1 so we can now fill in the equation. y-2=-1(x--8). We can change x--8 to x+8 so y-2=-1(x+8). Simplify this to get y-2=-x-8. You want to isolate y so you have to add 2 on both sides. y=-x-6. Therefore, the equation is y=-x-6.

denpristay [2]

Answer:

12.76

Step-by-step explanation:

This is much easier to solve if you draw it out on a graph. The perimeter is the sum of all the sides. I used the Pythagorean theorem to find the hypotenuse.

${a}^{2} + {b}^{2} = {c}^{2} \\ c = \sqrt{ {a}^{2} + {b}^{2} }$

$dc = \sqrt{ {3}^{2} + {1}^{2} } = \sqrt{10} \\ cf = 1 \\ fe = \sqrt{ {4}^{2} + {2}^{2} } = \sqrt{20} \\ de = \sqrt{ {1}^{2} + {4}^{2} } = \sqrt{17} \\ \sqrt{10} + 1 + \sqrt{20} + \sqrt{17} = 12.76$

If it took you (one person) 3 days to build a doghouse, then it should take 2 people to build it in half the time. So all we have to do is split 3 days in 2.

3/2 = 1.5
So it would take 1 1/2 days or 36 hours for 2 people to complete the doghouse.

At a certain fast-food restaurant, 69 % of customers order a chicken sandwich, 46 % of customers order french fries, and 36 % of

Leviafan [203]

We have events:

A - <span>customer orders a chicken sandwich
</span>B - <span>customer orders french fries

and probabilities:

$P(A)=0.69\\\\P(B)=0.46\\\\P(A\cap B)=0.36$

so:

$P(A\cup B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A\cap B)=0.69+0.46-0.36=\boxed{0.79}$
