Here are some formulas...
percent increase = (new number - original number) / original number...* 100
percent decrease = (original number - new number) / original number...* 100
============
a student raises her grade from a 75 to a 90....since it is going from a smaller number to a larger number, u have an increase
percent increase = (90 - 75) / 70....* 100
= 15/70 * 100
= 0.2142 * 100
= 21.42 rounds to 21.4% increase
-------------------------
36.50 on sale for 32.12...since it goes from a larger number to a smaller number, u have a decrease
percent decrease = (original number - new number) / original * 100
= (36.50 - 32.12) / 32.12...* 100
= 4.38 / 32.12...* 100
= 0.1363...* 100
= 13.63 rounds to 13.6% decrease
------------------------------
23.5 to 21.2......this is a decrease
percent decrease = (original number - new number) / original...* 100
= (23.5 - 21.2) / 23.5....* 100
= 2.3 / 23.5....* 100
= 0.0979 * 100
= 9.79 rounds to 9.8% decrease
0.6 miles.
Since there is 0.8 miles to hike in total, she hiked 0.2 miles.
To solve, we just easily subtract the amount that Liz hiked from the amount that needs to be hiked.
She hiked 0.2 miles, which means we need to subtract 0.2 from 0.8.
8 - 2 = 6
The answer is 0.6 miles.
Answer:
1.(1,5) and (2,6) , 6-5/2-1=1/1 m=1 ,y=1x+b
5=1(1)+b 4=b
y=x+4
2.(1,1) and (3,-8) -8-1/3-1=-9/2 m=-9/2 ,y=-9/2x+b
1=-9/2(1)+b b=11/2
y=-9/x+11/2
3.(2.-3) and (5,-2) m=1/3 ,y=1/3x+b
-3=1/3(2)+b -3=2/3+b
-3-2/3=b
b=-11/3
y=1/3x-11/3
4.(2,5)and (4,3) m=-1 y=-1x+b
5=-1(2)+b 5=-2+b
5+2=b
b=7
y=-1x+7
6.(-3,-5) and (-1,-3) m=2/2=1 y=1x+b
-5=1(-3)+b -5=-3+b
-5+3=b
-2=b
y=1x-2
Step-by-step explanation:
First, let's convert each line to slope-intercept form to better see the slopes.
Isolate the y variable for each equation.
2x + 6y = -12
Subtract 2x from both sides.
6y = -12 - 2x
Divide both sides by 6.
y = -2 - 1/3x
Rearrange.
y = -1/3x - 2
Line b:
2y = 3x - 10
Divide both sides by 2.
y = 1.5x - 5
Line c:
3x - 2y = -4
Add 2y to both sides.
3x = -4 + 2y
Add 4 to both sides.
2y = 3x + 4
Divide both sides by 2.
y = 1.5x + 2
Now, let's compare our new equations:
Line a: y = -1/3x - 2
Line b: y = 1.5x - 5
Line c: y = 1.5x + 2
Now, the rule for parallel and perpendicular lines is as follows:
For two lines to be parallel, they must have equal slopes.
For two lines to be perpendicular, one must have the negative reciprocal of the other.
In this case, line b and c are parallel, and they have the same slope, but different y-intercepts.
However, none of the lines are perpendicular, as -1/3x is not the negative reciprocal of 1.5x, or 3/2x.
<h3><u>B and C are parallel, no perpendicular lines.</u></h3>
