6/7 of 1 3/4......turn the mixed number to an improper fraction...and " of " means multiply
6/7 * 7/4 = 42/28 = 1 1/2...so a compact car weighs 1 1/2 tons or 1.5 tons

Rewrite 20 = 8x + 4r
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

20 = 8x + 4r can be rewritten in multiple ways.

1.  Reduce the coefficients:  5 = 2x + r

or

2.  Solve for r:  r = 5 - 2x

or

                                 5 - r

3.  Solve for x:  x = -----------

                                    2

Explain how you would find 47×7/9 mentally
erastova [34]
So you move left to right like PEMDAS when it comes to adding or subtracting either or could go first and same thing applies with multiplying and dividing so for instance in this case

47*7=329

329/9=36.5

Write an equation of the line through the point (5, 3) that is perpendicular to the line –3x+7y=5.
Fed [463]

Answer:

7x + 3y = 44

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 - 3x + 7y = 5 into this form by adding 3x to both sides

7y = 3x + 5 ( divide all terms by 7 )

y = \frac{3}{7} x + \frac{5}{7} ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = \frac{3}{7}

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

m_{perpendicular} = - \frac{1}{m} = - \frac{1}{\frac{3}{7} } = - \frac{7}{3} , thus

y = - \frac{7}{3} x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (5, 3) into the partial equation

3 = - \frac{35}{3} + c ⇒ c = 3 + \frac{35}{3} = \frac{44}{3}

y = - \frac{7}{3} x + \frac{44}{3} ← in slope- intercept form

Multiply through by 3

3y = - 7x + 44 ( add 7x to both sides )

7x + 3y = 44 ← in standard form
