Answer:

y = -1/5x + 2.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Put the equation into slope intercept form:

5x - y = 12

-y = -5x + 12

y = 5x - 12

The slope of a perpendicular line will be the opposite reciprocal.

So, the slope of the new line will be -1/5

Then, plug this slope and the given point into the equation y = mx + b to find b

y = mx + b

3 = -1/5(-2) + b

3 = 0.4 + b

2.6 = b

So, the equation will be y = -1/5x + 2.6

<h3>Answer:</h3>

  7)  0.76 is a rational number

  8)  The list of favorable outcomes is {orange pop #1, orange pop #2}.

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

7) The product 0.4 × 1.9 is 0.76. This is not an integer, whole number, or natural number. It is a decimal fraction of finite length, so is a rational number.

___

8) Often, a problem of this sort will ask for the probability of an orange pop outcome. This problem doesn't ask that. Rather it asks what the possible orange pop outcomes are. Drawing one orange pop from the box will give you one of ...

  • orange pop #1
  • orange pop #2

These are the possible outcomes.

Find the solution of the system of equations.<br> 10x+10y=40 <br> 5x+3y=8
ddd [48]

Answer:

x = -2 & y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

10x+10y=40

10x+10y+ -10y=40+-10y

10x=-10y+40

\frac{10x}{10} =\frac{-10y+40}{10}

x=-y+4

5x+3y=8

5(-y+4)+3y=8

-2y+20=8

-2y+20+-20=8+-20

-2y=-12

\div2

y=6

x=-y+4

x=-6+4

x=-2

Hope this helps.
