It would be: 6 1/4 * 1 5/7
= 25/4 * 12/7
= 300/28 = 150/14 = 75/7
In short, Your Answer would be 75/7 or 10 5/7 Pounds
Hope this helps!
Answer:
D is the answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
You can see if a line is perpendicular by the slope. If the slope is COMPLETELY opposite from another by means of slope, the lines are perpendicular.
-1/4
4/1
...are opposite.
Answer: Choice A
x+3y = 14
======================================================
Explanation:
The general template for standard form is Ax+By = C, where A,B,C are integers.
This immediately rules out choices C and D, since they don't fit the format mentioned.
To see which of A or B we can eliminate or confirm, plug (x,y) coordinates from the graph into each answer choice. The ultimate goal is to get a true statement.
For example, the graph shows that (x,y) = (2,4) is on the line. Plug this into choice A to get...
x+3y = 14
2+3(4) = 14
2+12 = 14
14 = 14 this is true
So far so good. The point (2,4) is on the line x+3y = 14. Repeat those steps for (-1, 5) and you should get another true result. So that would confirm choice A is the answer. You only need a minimum of two points to define a unique line, meaning we only need to verify two points on the line. Anything more is just extra busy work.
---------
If we tried (2,4) with choice B, then,
5x+3y = 14
5(2)+3(4) = 14
10+12 = 14
22 = 14 which is false
This indicates (2,4) is not on the line 5x+3y = 14. We can rule out choice B because of this.
The rate of change is also called the slope
the formula foe the rate of change is (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)
x1 = -3
x2 = 6
y1 = 14
y2 = -1
rate of change = (-1 - 14) / (6- (-3)
= -15 / 9
= -5/3
