Mathematics

Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

y = - 5 is a horizontal line parallel to the x- axis.

A line perpendicular to it will be a vertical line parallel to the y- axis with equation

x = c

Where c is the value of the x- coordinates the line passes through.

The line passes through (2, 7) with an x- coordinate of 2, thus

x = 2 ← is the equation of the perpendicular line

Salutations!

<span>There are 318 fiction books in the class library. The number of non fiction book is 47 less than double the number of fictions book. About how many non fiction books are there in the class library?

Let the number of non fiction books me 'NF'.

Let 'F' be fiction

Double means '2', therefore:

2F - 47 = non fiction (NF)

2(318) - 47 = non fiction 

As you can see brackets indicate multiplication, therefore you will be multiplying 318 and 2

636 - 47 = non fiction (NF)

Subtract 47 from 636

589 = nonfiction (NF)

There are 589 non fiction books in the library. 

Hope I helped (:

Have a great day!</span>

6.4 ounces. 

You can get this by first converting to ounces which is a smaller value. Then you can divide by 10.
