This is quite easy if you know what you are doing.
Let each number before the decimal represent the whole number in a fraction. In this case, the answer is: 4
The numbers after the decimal you insert a division sign with 100 and simplify.
75/100 = 3/4
Thus, 4.75 is equal to 4 3/4

A square's area is 3 times its perimeter. Find the dimensions of the square.

snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

length = 6

width = 6

height = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the square = 6 * 6

Area of the square = 36

The perimeter = 6 + 6

The perimeter = 12

so 36 is 3 times bigger than 12

A Delivery service charges $25 per pound for making a delivery. If there is an additional 8% sales tax, what is the cost of deli

mafiozo [28]

The cost of delivering an item that weighs 4/5 of a pound?$21.60.

<h3>How to find the delivery cost?</h3>

Let x = the number of pounds

Thus, we can say that;

Cost = 25x * 1.08

Since we want to find the cost of delivering an item that weighs 4/5 of a pound, the we will put 4/5 for x to get;

Cost = (25 * 4/5) * 1.08

Cost = 20 * 1.08

Cost = 21.6

The delivery cost would be $21.60.

Which of the following equations represents the perpendicular bisector of WX graphed below?

kotykmax [81]

The coordinates of the 2 given points are W(-5, 2), and X(5, -4).

First, we find the midpoint M using the midpoint formula:

$\displaystyle{ M_{WX}= (\frac{x_1+x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1+y_2}{2} )= (\frac{-5+5}{2}, \frac{2+(-4)}{2} )=(0, -1).$

Nex, we find the slope of the line containing M, perpendicular to WX. We know that if m and n are the slopes of 2 parallel lines, then mn=-1.

The slope of WX is $\displaystyle{ m= \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}= \frac{2-(-4)}{-5-5}= \frac{6}{-10}= -\frac{3}{5}$ .

Thus, the slope n of the perpendicular line is $\displaystyle{ \frac{5}{3}$ .

The equation of the line with slope $\displaystyle{ n= \frac{5}{3}$ containing the point M(0, -1) is given by:

$\displaystyle{ y-(-1)=\frac{5}{3}(x-0)$

$\displaystyle{ y+1= \frac{5}{3}x$

$\displaystyle{ 3y+3=5x$

$\displaystyle{ 5x-3y-3=0$

Answer: 5x-3y-3=0
