Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
Because it is a random sample
27 inches ......... 3/8
x inches .............8/8
<h3>x = (27×8/8)/(3/8) = 27×8/3 = 216/3 = 72 inches (father)</h3>
Negative reciprocal means
-1/4 times x=-1 solve for x
multiply both sides by -4/1
x=-4
so slope=-4
y=mx+b
m=slope, b=y intercpet
y=-4x+b
input 3 for x and -5 for y
-5=-4(3)+b
-5=-12+b
add 12 to both sides
7=b
the equation in slope intercept form is y=-4x+7
that is my standard form
another standard form is
y+4x=7
I would add 24 and 36, to make 60, then I would tack on 13 and get 73.
