-16 = 8x/5......8x/5 is the same as 8/5(x)
-16 = (8/5)x...divide both sides by 8/5
-16 / (8/5) = x
-16 * 5/8 = x
-80/8 = x
-10 = x <===
The rule to remember about generating the perpendicular family to a line is we swap the coefficients on and x and y, remembering to negate one of them. Then the constant is set directly from the intersecting point.
So we have
y = 3x + 2
-3x + 1y = 2
Swapping and negating gets the perpendiculars; the constant is as yet undetermined.
1x + 3y = constant
Since we want to go through (0,2), we could have just written
x + 3y = 0 + 3(2) = 6
3y = -x + 6
y = (-1/3) x + 2
Third choice
A certain allergen affects approximately 7 people per 10,000 in the United States. Assuming the U.S. population is approximately 324 million people, how many people suffer from this allergen?

Answer:
So do you already have the answer? Also 1/20 looks right.
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
x >= 7
Discussion:
x + 5 >= 12 => add -5 to both sides
x + 5 -5 >= 12 - 5 => as 5-5 = 0 and 12 =5 = 7
x >= 7
Thank you,
MrB
