<u>→ Chapter : </u><span><u>Equation of A Straight Line </u></span><u>←</u>
<em>≡ General equation of a straight line:</em>
⇔ y = mx+c

<em>≡ Solution:</em>
⇔ To know the slope in the equation, we just need to see the variable of x
y=-7x
∴ So, the slope of this equation is \boxed{-7}

Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

y = - \frac{4}{5} x + \frac{2}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Rearrange 4y = 5x + 3 into this form by dividing the 3 terms by 4

y = \frac{5}{4} x + \frac{3}{4} ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = \frac{5}{4}

Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

m_{perpendicular} = - \frac{1}{m} = - \frac{1}{\frac{5}{4} } = - \frac{4}{5} , thus

y = - \frac{4}{5} x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (3, - 2) into the partial equation

- 2 = - \frac{12}{5} + c ⇒ c = - 2 + \frac{12}{5} = \frac{2}{5}

y = - \frac{4}{5} x + \frac{2}{5} ← equation of perpendicular line

The low temperature in degrees Fahrenheit for 5 days was – 5, – 7, – 2, 2, and – 3. What was the average low temperature for tho
sammy [17]

Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the average of different numbers, first you add them all up. So -5+-7+-2+2+-3+=-15. Then, you divide the sum of all the numbers by the amount of numbers there were. So in this case, there were 5 numbers so we would divide the sum of all of them by 5. So now we do -15/5=-3.

Another example of finding the average of numbers is 15+4+10+9+3+1. So first we add them up and we get 42, then again, we divide by the amount of numbers there are. So we do 40/6 and we get 7, so the average is 7.

I hope this helped.

Alinara [238K]

Answer:

<h2>A) 32</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

From 1 to 10 we have 4 numbers which are {2,4,6,8}

From 10 to 20 we have 4 numbers which are {12,14,16,18}

.

.

.

From 70 to 78 we have 4 numbers which are {72,747,6,78}

<em><u>conclusion:</u></em> we 4×8 number = 32
