Answer:

The answer is 3 and the explanation is below:

Step-by-step explanation:

The simplified form of $\frac{3abc}{abc}$ is 3, when abc does not equal zero.

We can write $\frac{3abc}{abc}$ as $3*\frac{a}{a} *\frac{b}{b} *\frac{c}{c}$

This becomes $3*\frac{1}{1} *\frac{1}{1} *\frac{1}{1}$

= $3*1*1*1=3$

3abc / abc
= 3 ( abc ) / abc
= 3

because the real numbers did not have zero. the real number are starting from positive 1 to positive infinity number.
If we suppose a = 1, b = 2, c = 3
abc / abc = 1.

I hope that i helped you :)

Determine which of the lines are parallel and which of the lines are perpendicular. Select all of the statements that are true.

Answers:

Line A is parallel to line D.

Line A is perpendicular to line C.

Line C is perpendicular to line D.

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

Explanation:

Let's use the slope formula to calculate the slope of the line through (-1,-17) and (3,11)

$(x_1,y_1) = (-1,-17) \text{ and } (x_2,y_2) = (3,11)\\\\m = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}}\\\\m = \frac{11 - (-17)}{3 - (-1)}\\\\m = \frac{11 + 17}{3 + 1}\\\\m = \frac{28}{4}\\\\m = 7\\\\$

The slope of line A is 7

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

Now let's find the slope of line B.

$(x_1,y_1) = (0,4) \text{ and } (x_2,y_2) = (7,-5)\\\\m = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}}\\\\m = \frac{-5 - 4}{7 - 0}\\\\m = -\frac{9}{7}\\\\$

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

Now onto line C.

$(x_1,y_1) = (7,1) \text{ and } (x_2,y_2) = (0,2)\\\\m = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}}\\\\m = \frac{2 - 1}{0 - 7}\\\\m = \frac{1}{-7}\\\\m = -\frac{1}{7}\\\\$

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

Lastly we have line D.

$(x_1,y_1) = (-1,-6) \text{ and } (x_2,y_2) = (1,8)\\\\m = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}}\\\\m = \frac{8 - (-6)}{1 - (-1)}\\\\m = \frac{8 + 6}{1 + 1}\\\\m = \frac{14}{2}\\\\m = 7\\\\$

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

Here's a summary of the slopes we found

$\begin{array}{|c|c|} \cline{1-2}\text{Line} & \text{Slope}\\\cline{1-2}\text{A} & 7\\\cline{1-2}\text{B} & -9/7\\\cline{1-2}\text{C} & -1/7\\\cline{1-2}\text{D} & 7\\\cline{1-2}\end{array}$

Recall that parallel lines have equal slopes, but different y intercepts. This fact makes Line A parallel to line D.

Lines A and C are perpendicular to one another, because the slopes 7 and -1/7 multiply to -1. In other words, -1/7 is the negative reciprocal of 7, and vice versa. These two lines form a 90 degree angle.

Lines C and D are perpendicular for the same reasoning as the previous paragraph.

Line B unfortunately is neither parallel nor perpendicular to any of the other lines mentioned.

You can use a graphing tool like Desmos or GeoGebra to verify these answers.

the initial cost to set up a website is $48. it cost $44 per month to maintain the website . how many months will you be able to

Delicious77 [7]

We would start with 400 - 48, to cover the initial cost. We would be left with 352 dollars to spare for the monthly bill. 352 divided by 44, which is the monthly cost, would be 8. The website could be set up and held for 8 or 9 months, depending on if the initial cost is paid at the same time or before the first monthly one.

A college has a 30% completion rate, meaning that 30% of all students who start at the college complete the goal they set. The p

RSB [31]

Answer:

45%

Step-by-step explanation:

For simplicity, let use assume there are 100 students in the school.

No. of students to complete college = (30/100) x 100 = 30 Students

President wants to increase by 50% = (50/100) x 30 = 15 Students

New set goal = 30 + 15 = 45 students.

Total number of students = 100 students

Therefore;

Rate goal % = (45/100) x 100% = 45%
