Answer:

Weight gain = 84 lb 5 oz

Average weight gain = 6 lb 5 oz

Step-by-step explanation:

lb means pounds

16 oz = 1 pound

Convert the weight to pounds

Weight when she was born = 8 lb. 13 oz

= 8 pounds + 0.8125 pounds

= 8.8125 pounds

Present weight = 93 lb. 5

oz

= 93 pounds + 0.3125 pounds

= 93.3125 pounds

How much has she gained since birth

Weight gain = Present weight - Weight when she was born

= 93.3125 pounds - 8.8125 pounds

= 84.5 pounds

= 84 lb 5 oz

Weight gain = 84 lb 5 oz

what has been her average weight for each year if she is 13 year old

Average weight gain = Weight gain / 13

= 84.5 pounds / 13

= 6.5 pounds

= 6 lb 5 oz

Average weight gain = 6 lb 5 oz

Write the equation of a line that is perpendicular to y=-2x/7+9 and that passes through the point (4,−6)
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

  y = (7/2)x -20

Step-by-step explanation:

The given line is in slope-intercept form, so you can read its slope from the equation.

  y = mx + b . . . . . m is the slope; b is the y-intercept

  y = -(2/7)x + 9 . . . . . . has slope -2/7

The perpendicular line will have a slope that is the negative reciprocal of this, so will be ...

  m = -1/(-2/7) = 7/2

We can use this and the given point to write the equation in point-slope form.

  y = m(x -h) +k . . . . . . line with slope m through point (h, k)

We have m = 7/2, (h, k) = (4, -6) so the equation is ...

  y = (7/2)(x -4) -6

  y = (7/2)x -20

Determine whether the representation is proportional.y= -9x
valina [46]

Answer:

Yes it is

Step-by-step explanation:

y=-9x means that for every x value, the y value decreases by 9, so it is proportional because the value of y decreases the same amount each time. For example, if x=1, y=-9. If x=5, y=-45, and so on.
