he formula of a distance between a point (a, b)
and a line Ax + By + C = 0:
We have the point A(-1, 7) → a = -1, b = 7
and the line y = 3x → 3x - y = 0 → A = 3, B = -1, C = 0.
Substitute:
<h3>Answer: d = √10</h3>
Answer:
8:39
Step-by-step explanation:
because when simplified, all the rest are 1:5
Answer:-35
Step-by-step explanation:
To find 55 more a number equal to 20
We get
Let the number b y
55 more than the number
We be
y+55=20
y=20-55
y=-35
N% x 1.60 = 6 (I turned it from English to math)
Can't move n% back two places to make it a decimal so I will move the number I am multiplying by n% back two places instead.
Here is a sample to show you why it works. .34 x 57 = 34 x .57
So
.016n = 6 (.016 is 1.60 decimal moved back two places)
Now divide both sides by .016
<u>.016</u>n = <u>6
</u><u />.016 .016 n = 375%
Why is the percent over 100% you might ask?
What % of 1.60 is 1.60 (Answer - all of it or 100%)
So What % of 1.60 is 6 - the number 6 being much bigger than 1.60, it is not surprising that the percent is more than 100.
What % of 1.60 is 1.60 - 100%
What % of 1.60 is 3.20 - 200% (notice that 3.20 is twice 1.60)
What % of 1.6 is 4.80 - 300% (notice that 4.80 is three times 1.60)
What % of 1.6 is 6.40 - 400% (notice that 6.40 is four times 1.60)
6 (the number in the problem) is just a bit less than 6.40 so 375% makes a lot a sense.
Hope you found this helpful.
