4 0

Answer:

Pete, Lisa, Tony, Max

Step-by-step explanation:

Lisa is 4 ahead Tony, putting Tony 4 behind Lisa

Pete is 8 ahead Max, putting Max 8 behind Pete

Lisa is also 6 ahead Max, putting Max 6 behind Lisa

So, Pete is 8 ahead Max, but lisa is 6 ahead Max, so Pete is ahead of Lisa by 2

Then lisa is 4 ahead Tony, so tony is 4 behind lisa and 6 behind Pete

Therefore (I know its confusing) The order is Pete, Lisa, Tony, Max

#23-6: The pool concession stand made $5,800 in June and $6,300 in July. What is the percent of increase in sales? Round the ans
katrin [286]

Answer:

8.6%

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the percent change, you will need to compute the positive difference and then divide the difference by the original (the older amount).

So the positive difference will be obtain by doing larger minus smaller:

 6300

- 5800

-----------

   500

The older amount was 5800.

So 500/5800 is the answer as a un-reduced fraction.

I'm going to reduce it by dividing top and bottom by 100:

500/5800  = 5/58

5/58 is the answer as a reduced fraction.

5 divided by 58 gives=0.086206897  in the calculator .

Approximately 0.0862 is the answer as a decimal.

To convert this to a percentage, multiply it by a 100:

8.62%

Rounded to the nearest tenths is 8.6%

-------------

So 5800+5800(.0862) should be pretty close to 6300 (not exactly though since we rounded).

5800+5800(.0862)=6299.96 using the calculator.

consider the line y= 2/3x-0. Find the equation of the line that is parallel to this line and passes through the point (8, 4).
tresset_1 [31]
Point-slope form of a line: we need a point (x₀,y₀) and the slope "m".
y-y₀=m(x-x₀)

slope intercept form :
y=m+b

m=slope

If the line is parallel to y=2/3 x-0, the line will have the same slope, therefore the slope will be: 2/3.

Data:
(8,4)
m=2/3

y-y₀=m(x-x₀)
y-4=2/3(x-8)
y-4=2/3 x-16/3
y=2/3 x-16/3+4
y=2/3 x-4/3  (slope intercept form)

Answer: The equation of the line would be: y=2/3 x-4/3.


if we have the next slope "m",then the perendicular slope will be:
m´=-1/m

We have this equation: y=2/3 x+0; the slope is: m=2/3.

The perpendicular slope will be: m`=-1/(2/3)=-3/2

And the equation of the perpendicular line to : y=2/3 x+0, given the point (8,4) will be:

y-y₀=m(x-x₀)
y-4=-3/2 (x-8)
y-4=-3/2 x+12
y=-3/2x + 12+4
y=-3/2x+16

answer: the perpendicular line to y=2/3 x+0 , given the point (8,4) will be:
y=-3/2 x+16

Answer: x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

firstly you solve the barracks first by multipy 2 into ( x+8) after that you collect like terms on one side of the equation or make x become the subject of the equation and solve for x

What set of reflections would carry rectangle ABCD onto itself?
Furkat [3]
Answer: option <span>D) y=x, x-axis, y=x, y-axis</span>.

I first thought it was the option C) and I tried with it but it was wrong. This is how I dit it.

Option C step by step:

<span>1) Reflection over the x - axis => point with coordinates (a,b) is transformed into point with coordinates (a, -b)

2) Reflection over the line y = x  => point with coordinates (a, -b) is transformed into point with coordinates (-b,a)

3) New feflection over the x - axis => (-b,a) transforms into (-b, -a)

4) New reflection over the line y = x => (-b,-a) transforms into (-a,-b)

Which shows it is not the option C).

Then I probed with option D. Step by step:

1) Reflection over the line y = x => (a,b) → (b,a)

2) Reflection over the x-axis => (b,a) → (b,-a)

3) Reflection over the line y = x => (b,-a) → (-a,b)

4) Reflection over the y-axis => (-a,b) → (a,b).

So, this set of reflections, given by the option D) transforms any point into itself, which proofs that the option D) is the right answer.
