Answer:Company Z provides electricity for 8 houses.

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of houses in the neighborhood is 40.

Company X provides electricity to 1/5 of the houses. This means that the number of houses that Company X provides for would be

1/5 × 40 = 8

Company Y provides electricity to 3/5 of the houses. This means that the number of houses that Company Y provides for would be

3/5 × 40 = 24

Company Z provides electricity to the remaining houses. Therefore,

the number of houses that Company Z provides for would be

40 - ( 8 + 24) = 40 - 32 = 8

A box of 42 chocolates contains milk and dark chocolates in the ratio of 3:4. How many chocolates of each type there are?
Elza [17]
<h2>Answer:The number of milk chocolates are 18 and the number of dark chocolates are 24.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of milk chocolates be m.

Let the number of dark chocolates be d.

Given that the box contains the milk and dark chocolates in the ratio 3:4.

So,\frac{m}{d}=\frac{3}{4}               ...(i)

Given that the total number of chocolates are 42.

So,m+d=42.                                   ...(ii)

Using (i) and (ii),

m+\frac{4}{3}m=42

\frac{7}{3}m=42

m=18

d=\frac{4}{3}m=\frac{4}{3}\times 18=24

So,the number of milk chocolates are 18 and the number of dark chocolates are 24.

Please help me with this problem​
Nookie1986 [14]
In order for two lines to be perpendicular, their slopes must multiply together to equal to negative one
So we do negative one divided by 2/5 to get the slope of the red line
Which is -5/2
To check, we do 2/5 multiplied by -5/2 which equals to -1 so our answer is correct
