Caves are formed by the dissolution of limestone. Rainwater picks up carbon dioxide from the air and as it percolates through the soil, which turns into a weak acid. This slowly dissolves out the limestone along the joints, bedding planes and fractures, some of which become enlarged enough to form caves.
For perpendicular lines, the slopes are negative reciprocals of one another. Therefore, the slope of QC = 3/2
Using this into the formula of slope:
3/2 = (y + 6) / (-1 + 3)
y = -9
If the slope of CD is 2/3, then y works out to be -3.
If the top is $48 and it is 60% off you will multiply the cost by the decimal form of the sale percentage: 48*0.60= $28.80. This is the amount she will save and I think is the answer you are looking for.
If there is a follow up question asking for the final cost of the top you would find that by subtracting the amount saved from the original cost: 48.00-28.80=$19.20.
The tens digit is 3; the units digit is 3-1 = 2; and the number itself is 32.
<em>Lets simplify the problem,</em>
Let assume the "tens" digit be x
Then the "units" difference = (x-1), according to the condition.
Hence, the number itself is N = 10x + (x-1).
Then the number N+8 is 10x + (x-1) + 8 = 10x + x + 7 = 11x + 7.
From the last statement of the problem, we have this equation
Simplify and find "x"
.
Thus the tens digit is 3; the units digit is 3-1 = 2; and the number itself is 32.
