Answer:

C) 7

===========================================

Work Shown:

Use the slope formula

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

Plug in the given slope we want m = -5/3 and also the coordinates of the points. Then isolate r

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

-5/3 = (2-r)/(r-4)

-5(r-4) = 3(2-r) .... cross multiplying

-5r+20 = 6-3r

-5r+20+5r = 6-3r+5r .... adding 5 to both sides

20 = 6+2r

20-6 = 6+2r-6 ....subtracting 6 from both sides

14 = 2r

2r = 14

2r/2 = 14/2 .... dividing both sides by 2

r = 7

The slope of the line through (4,7) and (7,2) should be -5/3, let's check that

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (2-7)/(7-4)

m = -5/3

The answer is confirmed

The percentage of published studies that supported the tested hypothesis has changed from _____ to _____ over the past 25 years.
Katen [24]

The percentage of published studies that supported the tested hypothesis has changed from 70 to 85% over the past 25 years.

Hypothesis testing:

A hypothesis testing means investigates a proposed mathematical model to determine whether there is sufficient evidence from a sample of data to reject the defined null hypothesis.

Given,

The percentage of published studies that supported the tested hypothesis has changed from _____ to _____ over the past 25 years.

Here we need to find the change in the percentage for the past 25 years.

Based on the details, the percentage of published studies that supported the tested hypothesis has changed from 70 to 85% over the past 25 years.

Please help!! <br><br> (Could you please show how you get the answer!)
Anna [14]

Step-by-step explanation:

when a line intersects with 2 (or more) parallel lines. then, of course, the intersection angle is the same with every of the intersected lines. otherwise they would not be parallel.

so,

7x - 10 = 60

7x = 70

x = 10
