maria brought a blouse on sale for 20% off. the sale price was $21.76. what was the original price? round to the nearest hundred

Degger [83]

Answer: $27.20

Step-by-step explanation:

She bought a blouse for 20% off so it means that she paid 80% of the original price.We can then set up the equation

80% of x = 21.76 where x is the original price so solve for x

0.8x = 21.76

x = 27.20

Which means the original price is $27.20

write an equation in slope intercept form for the line that passes through the point, and is perpendicular to the line y=-1/3x+9

aleksklad [387]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y=-1/3x+9

This is written in the format y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b the y-intercept (the value of y when x=0).

Perpendicular lines have a slope that is the negative inverse of the slope of the reference line, in this case -(1/3). The new slope is 3. equation is:

y = 3x + b

To find b, enter the given point, (-6,-2) and solve for b:

y = 3x + b

-2 = 3(-6) + b

-2 = -18 + b

b = 16

The full equation is y=3x + 18
