Answer:

Yes because they have the same slope of 3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of PQ is ...

(10 -7)/(2 -0) = 3/2

The slope of RS is ...

(8 -5)/(0 -(-2)) = 3/2

The slopes are the same (3/2), so the lines are parallel.

0.8) 498 what is the answer

Lina20 [59]

Step 1: We make the assumption that 498 is 100% since it is our output value.

Step 2: We next represent the value we seek with $x$x.

Step 3: From step 1, it follows that $100\%=498$100%=498.

Step 4: In the same vein, $x\%=4$x%=4.

Step 5: This gives us a pair of simple equations:

$100\%=498(1)$100%=498(1).

$x\%=4(2)$x%=4(2).

Step 6: By simply dividing equation 1 by equation 2 and taking note of the fact that both the LHS

(left hand side) of both equations have the same unit (%); we have

$\frac{100\%}{x\%}=\frac{498}{4}$

100%

x%=

498

Step 7: Taking the inverse (or reciprocal) of both sides yields

$\frac{x\%}{100\%}=\frac{4}{498}$

100%=

498

$\Rightarrow x=0.8\%$⇒x=0.8%

Therefore, $4$4 is $0.8\%$0.8% of $498$498.

there arre 221 students on a fiel trip five students ride in a van the rest of the students fill the 6 buses enter an equation t

iren2701 [21]

According to the question statement, the total sum of students is 221, which includes the students that ride on bus and the students that ride in a van.

The students that ride in a van are five, the students that ride on bus are 6 times s which is the product of the number of buses and the number of students that are on each bus.

Write all this information into an equation, this way:
