3/5 of 42000 is 25200 so the amount of people who did not vote is 16800 because the beginning amount of 42000 subtracted from 25200 gives you the final answer If that's confusing the answer is 16800 votes didn't pick the winner

Lines m and p are perpendicular. if the slope of line m is -3 what is the slope of line p
ivann1987 [24]
For two lines to be perpendicular, their slopes must be negative reciprocals of one another, mathematically:

m1*m2=-1, in this case our reference line has a slope of -3 so:

-3m=-1  divide both sides by -3

m=-1/-3

m=1/3

So the perpendicular line will have a slope of 1/3

The height of a rectangular prism is 3 feet. The length and width can be expressed as x-1 and x+4. If the volume of the prism is
SashulF [63]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume  = 198 ft

length * width * height = 198

(x - 1) * (x + 4) * 3 = 198

(x - 1) * (x + 4)  = 198/3

(x - 1) * (x + 4) = 66

x*x + x*4 -1*x - 1*4 = 66   {Use FOIL method to multiply}

x² + 4x - x - 4 = 66

x² + 3x - 4 =66

x² + 3x - 4 - 66 = 0

x² + 3x - 70 = 0

Now factorize.

x² + 10x - 7x - 7*10 = 0

x(x +10) - 7(x + 10 ) = 0

(x + 10)(x - 7) = 0

x - 7 = 0 {x + 10 is ignored because measurement cannot be in negative}

x = 7

length = x - 1 = 7 - 1 = 6ft

Width = x + 4 = 7 + 4 = 11 ft
