<h2>Answer:</h2>

Step 1: We need to covert the current equation to slope-intercept form*.

$y - \frac{1}{5}x = 7\\\\y = \frac{1}{5}x + 7$

Step 2: Now that we have our equation in slope-intercept form, we can determine the perpendicular slope of the line.

$\frac{1}{5} = \frac{5}{1} = 5 = -5$

Our new slope is now -5.

*Slope-intercept form: y = mx + b

Daniel can by a particular brand of juice in a 6 ounce bottle or a 10 ounce bottle the juice in a 10 ounce bottle contains 150 c

olasank [31]

Answer: There are 90 calories in a 6-ounce bottle.

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume that the quantity of juice in the bottle is directly proportional to the number of calories it contains.

Given: 10 ounces of juice has 150 calories.

i.e. 1 ounce of juice has $\dfrac{150}{10}$ calories.

i.e. 1 ounce of juice has 15 calories.

Now, In 6 ounce of juice, the number if calories = 15 x 6 = 90 calories

Hence, there are 90 calories in a 6-ounce bottle.

Tom [10]

Answer:

1 is x=12

2 is x= 1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

For equation number 1 you just add 10 and 2, which is 12.

For equation number 2 you divide 2 by 10 and simplify it to 1/5. So x = 1/5

The temperature went from -16°F to 7°F. What was the change in temperature?

worty [1.4K]

Answer:

To find this out, we first need to see the change, is it a positive change or a negative change? Well in this case, as the temperature is increasing, we find that the change is positive. The next step we need to do, id that, how much was the change by, we can find this out by finding the absolute value of the difference of -16°F and 7°F

The absolute value means, the operations answer has to be positive, if not then it will become positive.

|-16°F -7°F|

=> |-23°F|

=> 23°F

If my answer helped, kindly mark me as the brainliest!!

Thank You!!
