Ok since your given two points of (-5,2) and origin which is always (0,0) you can find the slope with this formula of y2-y1/x2-x1 plug them in the formula and you should get 0-2/0-5 which is equal to -2/-5 or 2/5 negative signs cancel out now you found your slope but remember the promblem was asking for perpendicular slope to get this you simply flip or reciprocate the slope and take take the opposite sign in our case the slope is 2/5 but the perpendicular version is -5/2 hope this helps.

Within a computer service company, 20 percent of the male employees and 30 percent of the female employees attend night school.
Maksim231197 [3]

26% of all the employees attend night school

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is:

  • Within a computer service company, 20 percent of the male employees and 30 percent of the female employees attend night school
  • 40 percent of all employees are male

We need to find what percent of all the employees attend night school

Assume that the number of all employees is x

∵ The company has x employees

∵ 40 percent of all employees are male

- Find 40% of x

∵ 40% × x = \frac{40}{100} × x = 0.4 x

∴ The number of the male employees is 0.4 x

- Subtract 0.4 x from x to find the number of the female employees

∵ The number of female employees = x - 0.4 x = 0.6 x

∴ The number of the female employees is 0.6 x

∵ 20 percent of the male employees attend night school

- Multiply 20% by 0.4 x to find the number of male employees

   who attend night school

∴ The number of male who attend night school = 20% × 0.4 x

∴ The number of male who attend night school = \frac{20}{100} × 0.4 x

∴ The number of male who attend night school = 0.08 x

∵ 30 percent of the female employees attend night school

- Multiply 30% by 0.6 x to find the number of female employees

   who attend night school

∴ The number of female who attend night school = 30% × 0.6 x

∴ The number of male who attend night school = \frac{30}{100} × 0.6 x

∴ The number of male who attend night school = 0.18 x

Add the number of male and female who attend night school

∵ 0.08 x + 0.18 x = 0.26 x

∴ The number of male and female who attend night school is 0.26 x

- Find the percentage of 0.26 x of x

∵ \frac{0.26x}{x} × 100% = 26%

∴ 26% of all the employees attend night school

26% of all the employees attend night school
