Using proportions, it is found that the actual cost of each pineapple is of $2.12

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount.

In this problem, considering that the waste factor is of 15%, the<em> </em>total price<em> </em>should be of:

P = 0.85 x $14.95 = $12.7075.

For a case of 6 pineapples, hence the price of each is given by:

Pp = $12.7075/6 = $2.12.

The actual cost of each pineapple with a waste factor of 15% is $12.71

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

The cost of one case of fresh pineapples is $14.95 and the calculated waste factor is 15 percent. Hence:

Actual cost = 14.95 - 15% of 14.95 = $12.71

The actual cost of each pineapple with a waste factor of 15% is $12.71

Write the equation of the line that is perpendicular to y=2x-7 and passes through the point (6, 5)

Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given a equation of a line

we want to figure out the equation of the perpendicular line passes through the <u>(</u><u>6</u><u>,</u><u>5</u><u>)</u><u> </u>points

in order to do so

recall that,

$\displaystyle m_{ \text{perpendicular}} = - \frac{1}{m}$

we got from our given equation that m=2

because equation of a line is y=mx+b

thus

$\displaystyle m_{ \text{perpendicular}} = - \frac{1}{2}$

remember that, when we want to figure out perpendicular line or parallel line we should the formula given by

$\displaystyle y - y_{1} = m(x - x_{1})$

since we got our perpendicular m is -½, $x_1=6$ and $y_1=5$ , substitute

$\displaystyle y - 5 = - \frac{1}{2} (x - 6)$

to get the perpendicular equation you should simplify the above equation to y=mx+b form

distribute -½:

$\displaystyle y - 5 = - \frac{1}{2} x + 3$

add 5 to both sides:

$\displaystyle y = - \frac{1}{2} x + 8$

hence,

our answer choice is B

The vertex of the parabola below is at the point (2, 4), and the point (3, 6) is on the parabola. what is the equation of the pa

Paraphin [41]

Given:

Vertex ===> (h, k) (2, 4)

The parabola passes through the point: (x, y) ==> (3, 6)

Let's find the equation of a parabola.

To find the equation, use the general equation of a parabola with vertex (h, k):

$y=a(x-h)^2+k_{}$

Where:

(h, k) ==> (2, 4)

(x, y) ==> (3, 6)

Substitute values into the general equation:

$\begin{gathered} 6=a(3-2)^2+4 \\ \\ 6=a(1)^2+4 \\ \\ 6=a+4 \end{gathered}$

Subtract 4 from both sides:

$\begin{gathered} 6-4=a+4-4 \\ \\ 2=a \\ \\ a=2 \end{gathered}$

Substitute 2 for a, and input the values of the vertex (h, k) in the general vertex equation:

$y=2(x-2)^2+4$

Therefore, the equation of the parabola is:

$y=2(x-2)^2+4$

ANSWER:

$y=2(x-2)^2+4$
