It would then cost $90 because 25% of $120 is $30
Set up a ratio:
You drove 72 minutes and 100 km = 72/100
You want the number of minutes (x) to drive 150 km = x/150
Set the ratios to equal each other and solve for x:
72/100 = x/150
Cross multiply:
(72 * 150) = 100 * x)
Simplify:
10,800/100x
Divide both sides by 100:
x = 10800/100 = 108
This means it would take 108 minutes to drive 150 km.
Now subtract the time you have already driven to fin how much more you need:
180 - 72 = 36 more minutes.
Answer:
D. x = 21
Step-by-step explanation:
x - 4= 17
Step 1: Add 4 to both sides
x - 4= 17
<u> +4 +4</u>
x = 21
The resulting number would be 120
Hey there!
First, let's look at what perpendicular means. Imagine a cross, where there's all 90 degree angles. That's exactly what we're talking about when we say perpendicular. The given equation is in slope-intercept form, where we have:
y = mx + b
where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
When we're writing an equation with a perpendicular slope, we use the negative reciprocal of the given slope. Thus, we can make 0.3 1/3, and take the reciprocal to make 3, and make it negative 3 as it's the negative reciprocal. Now, we know we have a line with the slope of -3 and goes through (-3, 8). We can use the x and y values in this set of points, along with the slope, to create an equation to solve for b. That gives us:
8 = -3(-3) + b
8 = -9 + b
17 = b
Now, since we have slope and y-intercept, we can write our equation as:
y = -3x + 17
Hope this helps!
