Answer:

Animal books make up (3/20) of all books

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be the total number of books, made up of nonfiction, animal, and all others.

(3/5)X are nonfiction books.

Of the nonfiction books, 1/4 are animal books:  (3/5)*(1/4)X = (3/20)X are animal books

[This means that Nonfiction, less animal books is:  (3/5)X - (3/20)X]

Animal books make up (3/20) of all books.

How to solve for slope? (pre algebra)
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

Ok! When given points, to find the slope, you would use this equation: y2-y1/x2-x1. Let me demonstrate. In this set to find the slope with the coordinates (10,8) and (14,20), the y2 value is 20, and the y1 value is 8, and the x2 value is 14, and the y1 value is 10. So, your equation would look like this: (20-8)/(14-10), which simplifies to 12/4, or 3! So the slope is three, and that's how you do that when using an equation. OR, you could graph them, but that isn't too reliable so I do not recommend trying it, since you may not create the right slope.

18. For the following exercises, use the descriptions of each pair of lines given below to find the slopes of Line 1 and Line
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

The given lines are parallel.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the question, two lines are given as line 1 passes through (0,6) and (3,-24). Whereas, line 2 passes through (-1,19) and (8,-71).

It is required to find the slope of given lines and figure out whether they are perpendicular, parallel or neither.

To solve this question, first find the slope of both lines. Check if their product is equal to -1, then they are perpendicular. If the slopes are equal the lines are parallel

Step 1 of 2

Find the slope of first line.

$$\begin{aligned}&m_{1}=\frac{-24-6}{3-0} \\&m_{1}=\frac{-30}{3} \\&m_{1}=-10\end{aligned}$$

Step 2 of 2

Find the slope of first line.

$$\begin{aligned}&m_{2}=\frac{-71-19}{8-(-1)} \\&m_{2}=\frac{-90}{9} \\&m_{2}=-10\end{aligned}$$

Since, both slopes are equal.

Therefore, the lines are parallel.
