Answer:
40
Step-by-step explanation:
We know there are 16 oz in a pound
We can use ratios
15 x
----- = ----------
6 oz 16 oz
Using cross products
15 * 16 = 6x
240 = 6x
divide by 6
240/6 = 6x/6
40 =x
Answer:
y= -(1/3)x -r
Step-by-step explanation:
a perpendicular line has the slope of the line that it's perpendicular but its the negative reciprocal of it. So for ex: line 1 = 2x then the line perpendicular to it is -1/2x.
In this case, the slope is 3x. The line perpendicular to it therefore, should be -1/3x.
The problem states the line has the same y-intercept so it has to still be -r.
So the equation of the line perpendicular to y=3x-r with the same y-intercept is y=-(1/3)x -r
First: 0
Second: 0
Third: -5
Fourth: y=4x
