Answer:

12.5 % decrease

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the percent loss

Take the original amount and subtract the new amount

2.4 -2.1 = .3

Divide by the original amount

.3/2.4 = .125

Multiply by 100 to change to a percent

12.5 %

This is the percent decrease

Jing spent 1/3 of her money on a pack of pens, 1/2 of her money on a pack of markers, and 1/8 of her money on a pack of pencils.
Reika [66]

As per the problem

Jing spent \frac{1}{3} of her money on a pack of pens.

\frac{1}{2} of her money on a pack of markers.

and \frac{1}{8} of her money on a pack of pencils.

Total fraction of money spent cab be given as below

Fraction of Money Spent =\frac{1}{3} +\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{8}

Take the LCD of denominator, we get LCD of (3,2,8)=24

Fraction of Money Spent =\frac{8+12+3}{24} =\frac{23}{24} \\\\

\\ \text{Hence fraction of Money Spent }=\frac{23}{24} \\ \\ \text{Fraction of Money left}=1-\frac{23}{24} \\ \\ \text{Simplify, we get}\\ \\ \text{Fraction of Money left}=\frac{24-23}{24} \\  \\ \text{Fraction of Money left}=\frac{1}{24}

What is the slope of a line that is perpendicular to the line whose equation is 7x−3y=10?
Sonja [21]

Since this equation is already in standard form, there is no need to convert it. Standard form is Ax + By = C. In this equation, 7 = A, 3 = B, and 10 = C. From standard form, Ax + By = C equals negative A over B.

7x + 3y = 10

↓

\displaystyle\ m= \frac{-7}{-3}

Then you'd simplify.

\displaystyle\ m=\frac{7}{3}

The slope cannot be simplified any more, so this would be the final answer.
