Answer:The Collatz conjecture is a conjecture in mathematics that concerns a sequence defined as follows: start with any positive integer n. Then each term is obtained from the previous term as follows: if the previous term is even, the next term is one half the previous term. If the previous term is odd, the next term is 3 times the previous term plus 1.
Step-by-step explanation :an opinion or conclusion formed on the basis of incomplete information.
(-7)*(2/5 + (-3/7))
= -14/5 + 3

He doesn't know where x is
Answer:
4) y = 9
5) x = -1
6) y = -5x − 9
Step-by-step explanation:
4) x = 3 is a vertical line with an x-intercept of (3, 0). It has an undefined slope.
A perpendicular line to that will be y = a, which is a horizontal line with a y-intercept of (0, a) and a slope of 0. Since this line passes through (3, 9), the equation of the line must be y = 9.
5) The y-axis is x = 0. A parallel line that includes the point (-1, -2) is x = -1.
6) Parallel lines have the same slope, so:
y = -5x + b
To find the value of b (the y-intercept), plug in the point (-2, 1):
1 = -5(-2) + b
1 = 10 + b
b = -9
y = -5x − 9
