Answer:

r=4

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the slope of the line is -1.

We also know that the line passes through (-9, 3) and (-10, r).

We want to find the value of r.

First, let's figure out the equation of our line. We can use the point-slope form:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

Where m is the slope and (x₁, y₁) is a point.

So, let's substitute -1 for m. Since we know the point (-9, 3), let's use this for (x₁, y₁).

Substitute:

y-(3)=-1(x-(-9))

Simplify:

y-3=-(x+9)

Distribute:

y-3=-x-9

Add 3 to both sides. So, our equation is:

y=-x-6

It passes through (-10, r) and we want to find the value of r. So, let's substitute -10 for x and r for y, since -10 is our x and r is our y. So:

r=-(-10)-6

Evaluate for r. Distribute:

r=10-6

Subtract:

r=4

So, the value of r is 4.

And we're done!

Thx u if u get the answer

So the man's age is divisible by 3, 5, and 7 but not by 2, 4, 6, or 8.

3 * 5 * 7 = 105
105 is not divisible by 2, 4, 6, or 8.
Not sure if any lower ages are there, but since the man is 105 years old, you would receive $105.
