Answer:

The equation representing the new path is;

y = \dfrac{1}{3} \cdot x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the first walking park across the park is y = -3·x - 3

By comparison to the equation of a straight line, y = m·x + c, where m = the slope of the line, the slope of the line y = -3·x - 3  is -3

The park's new walking path direction = Perpendicular to first walking path

A line perpendicular to a line of  (as example) y = m₁·x + c has a slope of -1/m

∴ The park's new walking path slope = -1/(Slope of first path) = -1/(-3) = 1/3

The point the paths will intersect = (-3, 6)

The equation of the line is found by recalling that Slope, \, m_1 =\dfrac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

Where:

y₂ and x₂ are coordinates of a point on the new walking path

y₁ and x₁ are coordinates of a point on the new walking path intersecting the first walking path

Given that (-3, 6) is the intersection of the two walking paths, therefore, it is a point on the new walking path and we can say x₁ = -3, y₁ = 6

Therefore, we have;

Slope, \, m_1 =\dfrac{y_{2}-6}{x_{2}-(-3)} = \dfrac{y_{2}-6}{x_{2}+3} =\dfrac{1}{3}

Which gives;

(y₂ - 6) × 3 = x₂ + 3

y₂ - 6 = (x₂ + 3)/3

y₂ = (x₂ + 3)/3 + 6  = 1/3·x₂ + 1 + 6 = 1/3·x₂ + 7

Which gives the equation representing the new path as y = \dfrac{1}{3} \cdot x + 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

25% of anything means a quarter of that thing. (ie.1/4 of $60 which is $15).

OR

(25/100)*$60

0.25*60=$15

Charlie purchased a home for $300,000. The mortgage company requires a 10% down payment and Charlie chooses to finance the prope
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:  Charlie's down payment to purchase home is $30,000.


Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :- Charlie purchased a home for price = $300,000

Mortage company requires a down payment of =10% of price of home

Therefore, Charlie's down payment = 10% of price for home

⇒Charlie's down payment =10% of  $300,000

⇒Charlie's down payment =0.1 × $300,000

⇒Charlie's down payment =$30,000.

Thus, Charlie's down payment to purchase home is $30,000.

You go to dinner and decide to leave a 15% tip for your server you had 45 when you came to the restaurant. How much money would
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

$24.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Tip:

15% of 18 = 0.15 x 18 = 2.7

Cost of Dinner:

Tip + Cost of meal = total price

2.7 + 18 = 20.7

Money Remaining:

Starting value - Cost of Dinner = Amount remaining

45 - 20.7 = 24.3
