Let x be the mark he would attain at the fifth exam. Then,

\frac{56+70+61+46+x}{5} \geq 70

\frac{273+x}{5} \geq 70

273 + x ≥ 350

x ≥ 350 - 273

x ≥ 77

So, he should score 77 or more marks in his fifth exam.

A line passes through the point (1,4) and is perpendicular to the line with equations y=-1/5x+2. what's the equation of the line
jekas [21]

To find the slope of the perpendicular line, you can take the negative reciprocal of the slope of the line it is perpendicular to.

Taking the negative reciprocal of -1/5 gives 5.

Now we have y=5x+b, where b is the y-intercept. Since we know that the perpendicular line passes through the point (1,4), we can substitute those values into the equation we have to find b.

y=5x+b

4=5(1)+b

4=5+b

b=-1

Therefore, the equation of the perpendicular line is y=5x-1.
