Consider the equation y = -2x + b. Find the value of b if the line passes through (-5, 4). Select one:
a. b = -3
b. b = 4
c. b = 2
d. b = -6

b = -6 (Answer d)

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept equation is y = -2x + b, and we know that the line passes through (-5, 4).  Substitute -5 for x and 4 for y, to obtain:

4 = -2(-5) + b, or

4 = 10 + b, or

b = -6 (Answer d)

0.16 or 16%

step-by-step explanation:

lets take a coin for example.

if you toss it twice, it has a 1/4 chance of landing on heads both times because 1/2 * 1/2 is 1/4.

with the cards, the chance of picking dog is 0.4. having two people pick one is like picking a card twice in a row. so 0.4 * 0.4 is 0.16, or 16%
