Answer:

154.34%

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to determine what percentage of 357 is 551.

Let us assume that x% of 357 is 551.

So, \frac{357 \times x}{100} = 551

⇒ \frac{x}{100} = \frac{551}{357}

⇒ x = \frac{551}{357} \times 100 ......... (1)

⇒ x = 154.34%

So, it is clear from the step (1) that when we take the basic ratio then multiply with 100, then we will get the percentage. (Answer)

Today an exercise equipment store took 15% off the price of a treadmill, and for the next 2 days, it will take 15% off the previ
padilas [110]
To find the price of the treadmill, you can calculate the amount you will pay after each day and then multiply by the percentage that you will pay for each additional day.

You should use 85% (100% - 15%) as the part you will pay for a quicker calculation.

$4000 x 0.85 = $3400 (after the first day)
$3400 x 0.85 = $2890 (after the second day)
$2890 x 0.85 = $2456.50 (after third day)

<span>If the price of the treadmill yesterday was $4000, what will be the price of the treadmill 2 days from now?  I interpreted this as the discount would be applied for 3 days.</span>

identify an equation in point slope form for the line perpendicular to the y=-1/2x+11 that passes through (4,-8). a. y+8=1/2(x-4
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

d. y+8=2(x-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 2 important parts to this question. First, understanding which slopes are perpendicular. The negative reciprocal of a number will be perpendicular to it. So, since the original slope is -1/2 the new slope should be 2.

Then, remember what the point-slope formula is. The point-slope formula is: y-y_{2}=m(x-x_{2}). So if you plug in the point and slope the new equation looks like, y--8=2(x-4). Then, simplify for the final answer of y+8=2(x-4).
