Divide the sale price by the original price:
56 / 89 = 0.7
Multiply by 100:
0.7 x 100 = 70%
The sale price is 70% of the original price, so the discount would be 30% (100-70= 30)
Answer:
y = -1/3x + 8
Step-by-step explanation:
If two lines are perpendicular, the signs of the slope must be opposite and the slopes are reciprocals.
(basically if one is say -2/3, the other is 3/2. just flip it upside down)
So this slope is 3, so the new slope should be -1/3
The equation is now y = -1/3x + b
To find b, substitute (-9,5) in the equation
y = -1/3x + b
5 = -1/3(9) + b
5 = -3 + b
8 = b
So the equation is y = -1/3x + b
Answer:
3, 6, 9, 12, and so on, basically any number that can be divided by 3
Basically we want to know how many times 5/8 goes into 5 1/4.
5 1/4 ÷ 5/8 = 21/4 ÷ 5/8 = 21/4 × 8/5 = 42/5 = 8.4 bags
Since we cannot have a fraction of a bag, he can fill 8 bags completely.
answer: 8 bags
