Answer:

On a number line, -6 is greater than -14.

Here's how to show it: (o is a point if you were to draw it out you would color the o in)

-14 - 13 -12 -11 -10 -9 -8 -7 -6 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 0

<--o------------------------------------------------o------------------------------->

-6 is closer to 0

Consider the line 7x+9y=5

alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

The slope of a line parallel to this line will be: -7/9

The slope of the perpendicular line will be:

$\frac{-1}{\frac{-7}{9}}=\frac{9}{7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the slope-intercept form

$y=mx+b$

Here,

m is the slope

b is the y-intercept

Given the equation

$7x+9y=5$

simplifying to write in the lope-intercept form

$y=-\frac{7}{9}x+\frac{5}{9}$

Thus, the slope of the line is: -7/9

The slope of a line parallel to the line:

We have already determined that the slope of the line is: -7/9

We know that the parallel lines have the same slope.

Thus, the slope of a line parallel to this line will be: -7/9

The slope of a line perpendicular to the line:

We have already determined that the slope of the line is: -7/9

As we know that the slope of the perpendicular line is basically the negative reciprocal of the slope of the line.

Thus, the slope of the perpendicular line will be:

$\frac{-1}{\frac{-7}{9}}=\frac{9}{7}$

Elena-2011 [213]

Answer: $100,000

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Land + Stocks + Bonds + Savings = 100%

$\dfrac{1}{2}x$ + 0.1x + $\dfrac{1}{20}x$ + 35,000 = 1.00x

= 0.5x + 0.1x + 0.05x + 35,000 = 1.00x

= 0.65x + 35,000 = 1.00x

35,000 = 0.35x

$\dfrac{35,000}{0.35}=\dfrac{0.35x}{0.35}$

100,000 = x

Two bicyclists were racing toward each other when they were 98 miles apart. Three hours later they did not meet yet and the dist

lesya [120]

Let, speed of 1st bicyclist is x.

So, speed of 2nd bicyclist is x-3 .

We know, relative speed when two objects moves towards each other :

$v = x + ( x-3 )\\\\v = 2x - 3$

Now, distance travelled in 3 hours is (98-2) miles .

So,

$2x-3 = \dfrac{96}{3}\\\\2x - 3 = 32\\\\2x = 35\\\\x = 17.5\ mph$

Therefore, speed of bikes are 17.5 mph and 14.5 mph.

Hence, this is the required solution.
