We need to convert this equation to slope-intercept form first.

We can do that by solving for y.

x - 5y = 15

<em><u>Add 5y to both sides.</u></em>

x = 5y + 15

<em><u>Subtract 15 from both sides.</u></em>

x - 15 = 5y

<em><u>Divide both sides by 5.</u></em>

y = 1/5x - 3

We now know the slope is 1/5.

The slope of the line perpendicular to the line with a slope of 1/5 is -5.

The slope of a perpendicular line is the negative reciprocal of the original slope.

Using a graphing calculator, we know the y-intercept of the line that is perpendicular to the original line must have a y-intercept of -6 to run through the points (-2, 5).

The equation of the new line is y = -5x - 6.

Answer:

$4

Step-by-step explanation:

2 Bracelets + 3 rings = $26

2 rings = $12

3 rings = x

To get the cost of 1 ring you divide 12 by 2 and the answer you get is 6.

The total cost of the 3 rings is $18( $6*3)

Then you subtract the cost of both 2 bracelets and 3 rings($26) from the cost of 3 rings($18). The answer is $8. ( THIS IS THE COST OF 2 BRACELETS)

<u>1 BRACELET= $4( $8/2)</u>

olchik [2.2K]
Probability he doesn't make a free shot = 10/10 - 7/10 = 3/10
Doesn't first time, does second time, so...
3/10 x 7/10 = 21/100

Answer:

Total crackers on the plate are 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Manuel ate crackers = \frac{1}{3}

His brother ate crackers = \frac{1}{4}

Crackers left on the plate = 5

We need to find how many crackers were there on the plate.

Let x be the total crackers on the plate

So, we can write the equation

x-\frac{1}{3}x-\frac{1}{4}x=5

Because 1/3 and 1/4 crackers are eaten and 5 are left so, we subtract 1/3x and 1/4x from x and equal it to 5

\frac{12x-4x-3x}{12}=5\\\frac{12x-7x}{12}=5\\\frac{5x}{12}=5\\x=\frac{5*12}{5}\\x=12

So, we get x = 12

Therefore, total crackers on the plate are 12

Contact [7]

Answer:

Extrapolation

Step-by-step explanation:

Extrapolation is a type of estimation, beyond the original observation range. In this case, the observation range is from 4.5 to 7.5 years. Marco's mom is extrapolating the regression line to estimate Marco's height at 14 years old. This sort of estimation assumes that Marco's height will continue changing at the same rate until he is 14 years old.
