Hi there! So 39,300 copies of a book were sold on debut month of release, and that represents 6.3% of all copies sold to date. To find the total amount of copies sold, we can write and solve a proportion. Set it up like this:
39,300/x = 6.3/100
We set it up like this because 39,300 is part of the total amount, and it represents 6.3% of the total book sales. Percents are parts of 100, which is why 6.3 is above 100. Let's cross multiply the values. 39,300 * 100 is 3,930,000. 6.3 * x is 6.3x. that makes 3,930,000 = 6.3x. Divide each side by 6.3 to isolate the x. 6.3x/6.3 cancels out. 3,930,000/6.3 is 623,809.5238 or 623,810 when rounded to the nearest whole number. There. The total amount of copies sold to date is about 623,810.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The equation for the monthly charge has the following format

In which y(x) is the cost in function of the number of kilowatt-hours used(x), a is the price of each killowatt hour and b is the fixed(base) charge.
Base charge of $17.32 per month.
This means that 
charge of 7.32 cents per kilowatt-hour
Our answer is in dollars. Each dollar is 100 cents. So 7.32 cents is 
Write an equation for the monthly charge y in terms of x, the number of kilowatt-hours used.


Answer:
y = 6x + 9
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- interceot form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Rearrange 2x + 12y = - 1 into this form
Subtract 2x from both sides
12y = - 2x - 1 ( divide all terms by 12 )
y = -
x -
← in slope- intercept form
with slope m = - 
Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is
= -
= -
= 6
Note the line passes through (0, 9) on the y- axis ⇒ c = 9
y = 6x + 9 ← equation of perpendicular line
5 is a whole number so keep it as 5 then 4 is in the tenths place so that means have ten for the denominator so 5 and 4/10 is the mixed number then simplified to 5 and 2/5
