What percent of 600 is 12

1 answer:

4 0

We can say that 600 represents 100% and 12 represents x %. Using the proportion: 600 : 12 = 100 : x. That can also be written as: 600/12 =100/x. Then we will multiply across the known corners and then divide by the third number. 600 x = 12 * 100 600 x = 1,200 x = 1,200 : 600, x = 2. Answer: 12 is 2% of 600.

Just by looking at it, 2 seems to be the correct answer. I mean if you think about it, when the triangle is split in two smaller triangles, side LN is longer than LP so that means x needs to be a small number. I could either be 2 or 1. Well if you look at the big picture, side LM is longer than LN so it’s gonna need to be bigger. If you say x=1 then you are saying 2(1) +4 = 6 (therefore LM is 6) but if you say x=2 then you are saying 2(2) +4 = 8 which makes more sense

If x=2 then you can use the Pythagorean’s theorem

a2 + b2 = c2
4^2 + b^2 = 5^2
16 + b^2 = 25
25-16= 9
b^2= 9
b= 3

Now that we know what NP is we can do Pythagorean’s theorem to figure out what side LP is (we already know it but you can do it again to check lol)

So the answer is 2

Given the following 2 equations, state whether these equations are parallel, perpendicular, or neither.

stiks02 [169]

Answer:

Neither

Explanation:

The slope-intercept form of the equation of a line is generally given as;

$y=mx+b$

where m = the slope of the line

b = the y-intercept of the line

Two lines are said to be parallel if they have the same slope. Looking at the two given equations below, we see that the slope of the 1st one, 5/7, is different from the slope of the 2nd one, 7/5;

$\begin{gathered} y=\frac{5}{7}x+14 \\ y=\frac{7}{5}x-20 \end{gathered}$

Two lines are said to be perpendicular if their slopes are negative reciprocals of each other, let's go ahead and compare their slopes;

$\begin{gathered} m_1=\frac{5}{7} \\ m_2=\frac{7}{5} \\ \therefore m_2=\frac{1}{m_1_{}} \end{gathered}$

So the two lines are not perpendicular to each other. It, therefore, means that the correct answer will be Neither.

True or false. the points on a line can be paired one to one with real mumbers

frosja888 [35]

This is true, because there is an infinite amount of real numbers in both, and they are both countably infinite (so these infinities are equal). Hope this helps!
