10/75= 1/x
Cross multiply and divide
75 x 1= 75
75 divided by 10 is 7.5
Answer is 7.5 pencils per dollar
This is an example of observational study, because the biologist is not interfering or interacting with the subjects of study but just watching and registering data (recording with cameras).
The biologist is not conducting an experiment because (he is not setting up special conditions to register different responses to drive conclusions), and the biologist is not making any survey (questionnaires for example).
Answer: observational study
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The value of a is 3
Step-by-step explanation:
First you have to make an equation based on the point and slope that you were given. The formula for this is y-(y cordinate of point)=slope(x-x cordinate of slope)
y--2=-3(x-6), which simplifies to y+2=-3(x-6)
In (a,7), 7 is the y coordinate. We have to plug 7 in for the y in our equation.
7+2=-3(x-6),
Combine like terms on the left side to get to 9=-3(x-6)
Multiply out on the left to get 9=-3x+18
Subtract 18 from the left side to get -9=-3x
Divide both sides by negative 3 to get 3=x (remember x is a)
