Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
You used Pythagorean theroem which is correct as this does form a right triangle however 50 is the hypotenuse as the ladder is propped up against the wall. 30 would then be the height of the triangle and the base is unknown so...

50 squared minus thirty squared gives 1600 so:

Therefore x is the square root of 1600 which is 40
To get that percentage you just need to divide 1550 by 200p:
1550/2000 = 0.775
Which means that only 77.5% of the students voted

Answer:
1.) Amount of potting soil purchased last week.
2) 2p + 4 = 28
3.) 12 lbs
Step-by-step explanation:
1.) The unknown information is what we intend to find out using the information given, which is the amount of potting soil Emmanuel bought last week.
2.)
Let amount of potting soil bought last week = p
Amount bought this week = 2p + 4
Since amount bought this week = 28
Hence, we have ;
28 = 2p + 4
28 - 4 = 2p
24 = 2p
p = 24 / 2
p = 12

Answer:
y = -5/3x + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
First lets turn the equation from standard form to slope intercept form.
3x - 5y = 1
~Subtract 3x to both sides
-5y = 1 - 3x
~Divide -5 to everything
y = -1/5 + 3/5x
~Reorder
y = 3/5x - 1/5
Now that we have the equation in slope intercept form, we can find the new equation. A perpendicular line will have the opposite reciprocal of the original slope.
3/5x -> -5/3x
Now that we have the slope, we can use the given point to find the y-intercept.
y = -5/3x + b
8 = -5/3(-3) + b
8 = 5 + b
3 = b
Put all the information we solved for into a final equation.
y = -5/3x + 3
Best of Luck!
