In order to find "r", you need to isolate it. So in order to isolate it, you do the inverse operation. In this case, it would be division because 0.3 is being multiplied by "r". So you divide by 0.3 on both sides to get 7.

Answers: Choice D, Choice E, Choice F</h3>
============================================================
Explanation:
The inequality 6x - 10y ≥ 9 solves to y ≤ (3/5)x - 9/10 when you isolate y.
Graph the line y = (3/5)x - 9/10 and make this a solid line. The boundary line is solid due to the "or equal to" as part of the inequality sign. We shade below the boundary line because of the "less than" after we isolated for y.
Now graph all of the points given as I've done so in the diagram below. The points in the blue shaded region, or on the boundary line, are part of the solution set. Those points are D, E and F.
We can verify this algebraically. For instance, if we weren't sure point E was a solution or not, we would plug the coordinates into the inequality to get...
6x - 10y ≥ 9
6(5) - 10(2) ≥ 9 .... plug in (x,y) = (5,2)
30 - 20 ≥ 9
10 ≥ 9 ... this is a true statement
Since we end up with a true statement, this verifies point E is one of the solutions. I'll let you check points D and F.

I'll show an example of something that doesn't work. Let's pick on point A.
We'll plug in (x,y) = (-1,1)
6x - 10y ≥ 9
6(-1) - 10(1) ≥ 9
-6 - 10 ≥ 9
-16 ≥ 9
The last inequality is false because -16 is smaller than 9. So this shows point A is not a solution. Choices B and C are non-solutions for similar reasons.
Answer:
The correct answer is 1/49
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find this, we first can eliminate the negative in the exponent by putting the whole this in the denominator.
(-7)^-2 = 1/(-7)^2
Now we can evaluate the denominator
1/(-7)^2 = 1/49
Answer:
nickel and a quarter
