Answer:

$\large\boxed{\text{The slope}\ m=-\dfrac{3}{2}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of an equation of a line:

$y=mx+b$

m - slope

b - y-intercept

We have the equation of a line in the standard form:

$6x+4y=8$

Convert to the slope-intercept form:

$6x+4y=8$ <em>subtract 6x from both sides</em>

$4y=-6x+8$ <em>divide both sides by 4</em>

$y=-\dfrac{6}{4}x+\dfrac{8}{4}$

$y=-\dfrac{3}{2}x+2$

Lateral faces are all the sides of the prisms EXCEPT the bases, which are the sides on the top and bottom. To find the area of the lateral faces we can use the formula: perimeter x height.

perimeter = 2 (6 + 8) = 2 x 14 = 28
height = 14
area of the lateral faces = perimeter x height = 28 x 14 = 392

Hope this helps!

Answer:

$\approx74796$

Step-by-step explanation:

GIVEN: In the $2009-10$ school year in country A, there were $92,000$ foreign students from country B. This number is $23\%$ more than the number of students from country C.

TO FIND: How many foreign students were from country C.

SOLUTION:

Total foreign students from country B $=92000$

let the foreign students from country C be $x$

As the students from country B is $23\%$ more than the country C

Students from country B

$92000=\frac{123}{100}x$

$x=\frac{9200000}{123}$

$x\approx74796$

Hence the number of students from country C are $74796$
