The answer is: "1 square inch : 25 square feet" ;

or: " 1: 300 " .
_____________________________________________

5 in² /125 ft² = ?

5/125 = (5÷5)/(125÷5) = 25

So, the answer is: 1 square inch: 25 square feet.
____________________________________________
OR:

Convert: "25 square feet" to "square inches" ;

12 square inches = 1 square ft.

So; "25 square feet" = (25 * 12) square inches = 300 square inches.
__________________________________________________
So, " 1 square inch: 25 square feet" ;

= " 1 square inch: 300 square inches " = " 1 : 300 " ;

________________________________________________
So. The answer is: "1 square inch : 25 square feet" ;

or: " 1: 300 " .

Write the equation of the line that is perpendicular to y=2x-7 and passes through the point (6, 5)

Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given a equation of a line

we want to figure out the equation of the perpendicular line passes through the <u>(</u><u>6</u><u>,</u><u>5</u><u>)</u><u> </u>points

in order to do so

recall that,

$\displaystyle m_{ \text{perpendicular}} = - \frac{1}{m}$

we got from our given equation that m=2

because equation of a line is y=mx+b

thus

$\displaystyle m_{ \text{perpendicular}} = - \frac{1}{2}$

remember that, when we want to figure out perpendicular line or parallel line we should the formula given by

$\displaystyle y - y_{1} = m(x - x_{1})$

since we got our perpendicular m is -½, $x_1=6$ and $y_1=5$ , substitute

$\displaystyle y - 5 = - \frac{1}{2} (x - 6)$

to get the perpendicular equation you should simplify the above equation to y=mx+b form

distribute -½:

$\displaystyle y - 5 = - \frac{1}{2} x + 3$

add 5 to both sides:

$\displaystyle y = - \frac{1}{2} x + 8$

hence,

our answer choice is B
