A line passes through the point (4,-2) and has a slope of 1/2 what is the value of a if the point (-4,a) is also on the line

 The value of a is -6.

Step-by-step explanation:

To do this we need to find the y-intercept first.

-2= 4(1/2) + b

-2=2+ b

-2  -2

b= -4  so now the y-intercept is -4  so we will now have the equation y= 1/2x -4

so now put -4 into the equation for x and solve for y.

y= 1/2(-4) -4

y = -6

step-by-step explanation:

3/10 times, the 5 year old will get a tablet. 5/10 times, the 13 yer old will get a tablet. multiply both fractions to get 15/100 times, both would have a tablet.

14.3

step-by-step explanation:

add all the numbers together.

9 + 12 + 15 + 16 + 17 + 17 = 86

now, divide 86 by how many numbers we have: 6.

86 / 6 = 14.3
