Answer:

<h2>          x + 3y = 7            </h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line which passes through <em>(x₁, y₁)</em> and with slope of <em>m</em> in point-slope form:

                                y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

m = -¹/₃

(1, 2)    ⇒   x₁ = 1,  y₁ = 2

Therefore,  the equation of the line which passes through (1, 2) and with slope of −1/3 in point-slope form:

y - 2 = -¹/₃(x - 1)

y - 2 = -¹/₃x + ¹/₃                     {add ¹/₃x to both sides}

¹/₃x + y - 2 = ¹/₃                     {add 2 to both sides}

¹/₃x + y = 2¹/₃                       {multiply both sides by 3}

x + 3y = 7

A turtle is 20 5/6 inches below the surface of a pond. It dives to a depth of 32 1/4 inches. What is the change in the turtle’s
Naddik [55]
Change=new-original
change=32 and 1/4-20 and 5/6
32 and 1/4-20 and 5/6=
32+1/4-(20+5/6)=
32+1/4-20-5/6=
32-20+1/4-5/6=
1/4 and 5/6
LCD=12
1/4 times 3/3=3/12
5/6 times 2/2=10/12

32-10+3/12-10/12=
12-7/12=
11+12/12-7/12=
11+5/12
the turtle went down so the change is negative

the change is -11 and 5/12 inches

BRAINLIEST, MEDAL, STARS!!! PLEASE HELP MAEEE! TRIANGLE INEQUALITY THEORM! which collection of three side lengths can be used to
mestny [16]
C.  The Triangle Inequality Theorem States that any two sides of a triangle must be greater than the third side. It cannot be A because 35+40= 75, which is not greater than 75. It cannot be B because 40+30= 70, which is not greater than 75. It cannot be D because 35+40= 75, which is not greater than 80. It is C because 40+30= 70, which is greater than 65.
