.002 is 1/10 of what

1 answer:

3 0

This uses the concept of proportions.

.002 converted to a fraction is 2/1000, or 1/500.

We set up the proportion like so:
10/100 = .002/x
Solve for x.

Cross-multiply.
10 * x = .002 * 100
10 * x = .2
x = .2 / 10
x = .02

The answer is .02

Nataly [62]

To find this you would do 800 + 15x where x is the amount of years.

For 9 years it would be 800 + 15(9) which is 800 + 135.

At the end of 9 years, the apartment's rent would be $935. I hope that's utilities included because... yikes...

Is the line through points P(2, –5) and Q(–5, –1) parallel to the line through points R(5, 4) and S(–2, 5)? Explain.

Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

the answer is No

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the first line has a slope of -4/7 and the other line has a slope of -1/7. This can be shown in point slope form y-y1=m(x-x1) where m=∆y/∆x.

Through points P and Q, the point slope is represented as -1-(-5)=m(-5-2) ; 4 = -7m ; m = 4/-7. The next two points R and S can be shown in point slope as 5-4=m(-2-5) ; 1 = -7m ; m =1/-7. With the fact that parallel lines must have equal slopes, these two lines cannot be parallel because -4/7≠-1/7
