Kim purchased a dress that was originally $35. It was on sale for 30% off. She also bought a pair of shoes for 1/2 off the origi

nal price of $17. If the store added a 4% sales tax, how much would she pay for both items?

Answer:  $34.32

Step-by-step explanation: We first calculate the price of the dress that was on sale. 30% of 35 is 35/10 x3. This is equal to 3.5x3 which is 7+3.5 = 10.5 We subtract this from 35 to get $24.5. So, the dress cost $24.5. Next 1/2 of 17 is 8.5. In total, the items cost $24.5+$8.5 = $33. Then, there is a 4% sales tax we have to add on to 33. 1% of 33 is 33/100 which is 0.33. This time 4 is 1.32. 33+1.32 is 34.32.

Which of the following is the equation of a line perpendicular to the line y=-3/2x+4, passing through the point (3, 9)?
Anastaziya [24]

Answer: -2x+3y = 21 which is choice C

============================================

Work Shown:

The slope of the original line is -3/2. The perpendicular slope is 2/3. We flip the fraction and flip the sign. Multiplying the original slope (-3/2) and the perpendicular slope (2/3) will result in -1. Let's use this perpendicular slope and the point to find the equation of the perpendicular line in slope intercept form.

y = m+b

y = (2/3)x+b .... plug in the perpendicular slope

9 = (2/3)(3)+b .... plug in the point (x,y) = (3,9)

9 = 2+b

9-2 = 2+b-2 ... subtract 2 from both sides

b = 7

So y = (2/3)x+b turns into y = (2/3)x+7.

This equation is in slope intercept form.

---------------------------

Let's convert to standard form

y = (2/3)x+7

3*y = 3*((2/3)x+7) ... multiply both sides by 3 to clear out the fraction

3*y = 3*(2/3)x+3*7 ... distribute

3y = 2x+21

-2x+3y = 21 .... get the x term to the other side (subtract 2x from both sides)
