Answer:

The answer is that r = 7/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given point: (7, 5)

Given slope: m = 6

Use the point slope form of the equation:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 5 = 6(x - 7)

y - 5 = 6x - 7

y = 6x + 2

Now, find r for the point (r, 9) by substitution:

9 = 6x + 2

6x + 2 = 9

6x = 7

x = 7/6

Proof:

y = 6x + 2

f(x) = 6x + 2

f(7/6) = 6(7/6) + 2

= 42/6 + 2

= 7 + 2 = 9, giving (7/6, 9). r = 7/6

Hope this helps! Have a great day!

There are 12 pieces of candy in a bowl. 6 are mints, 4 are Butterscotch, and 2 are Cinnamon.

Alecsey [184]

Answer:

6/12

Step-by-step explanation:

I think that's right because once you put that mint back it's not decreasing in value so it would stay as 6/12

What is the equation for

WARRIOR [948]

The equation of a line that is perpendicular to the given line is y = –4x – 16.

Solution:

The equation of a line given is y = 0.25x – 7

Slope of the given line( $m_1$ ) = 0.25

Let $m_2$ be the slope of the perpendicular line.

Passes through the point (–6, 8).

<em>If two lines are perpendicular then the product of the slopes equal to –1.</em>

$\Rightarrow m_1 \cdot m_2=-1$

$\Rightarrow 0.25\cdot m_2=-1$

$\Rightarrow m_2=\frac{-1}{0.25}$

$\Rightarrow m_2=-4$

Point-slope intercept formula:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

$x_1=-6, y_1=8$ and $m=-4$

Substitute these in the formula, we get

$y-8=-4(x-(-6))$

$y-8=-4(x+6)$

$y-8=-4x-24$

Add 8 on both sides of the equation.

$y-8+8=-4x-24+8$

$y=-4x-16$

Hence the equation of a line that is perpendicular to the given line is

y = –4x – 16

What is the answer to this

OleMash [197]

2x+3+132=180
2x+135=180
subtract 135 from both sides
2x=45
divide both sides by 2
x=22.5
