1. divide each number by 6 and you get 4:3 answer c
2. 1x+4x=45 (the ratios give you how many of each you have)
5x=45 so x=9 that is the smallest number
3. percent means out of 100 so 490/100 4.9
4 percent means out of 100 so .5/100 5/1000 = .005
A postulate isn't required to be proven
Answer:
1
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of this line is -1 or -1/1, and to find the perpendicular slope you find the opposite of the reciprocal, which in this case would be 1/1 which simplifies to 1.

<h3>Answer: Choice D</h3>
=======================================================
Explanation:
The long way to do this is to multiply all the fractions out by hand, or use a calculator to make shorter work of this.
The shortest way is to simply count how many negative signs each expression has.
The rule is: if there are an even number of negative signs, then the product will be positive. Otherwise, the product is negative.
For choice A, we have 3 negative signs. The result (whatever number it is) is negative. Choice B is a similar story. Choice C is also negative because we have 1 negative sign. Choices A through C have an odd number of negative signs.
Only choice D has an even number of negative signs. The two negatives multiply to cancel to a positive. The negative is like undoing the positive. So two negatives just undo each other. This is why the multiplied version of choice D will be some positive number.
Or you can think of it as opposites. If you are looking up (positive direction) and say "do the opposite" then you must look down (negative direction). Then if you say "do the opposite", then you must look back up in the positive direction.
