Answer:

21.4% or 21%

Step-by-step explanation:

70 - 55 = $15

(15 / 70) × 100 = %

0.214 × 100 = 21.4%

Answer: 21.43%

Step-by-step explanation: X/100 * 70 = 55

70X/100 = 55

7X/10 =55

7X = 55 * 10

7X = 550

Divide both sides by 7

7X/7 = 550/7

X = 78.57%

Hence, 100% - 78.57% = 21.43%

A house is built on coordinates (2,9). There is a water pipeline that runs along the line y = 2 3 x – 1. What is the approximate

Basile [38]

Answer:

7.21 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The shortest length needed to connect the house to the existing pipeline is the perpendicular distance between the location of the house (2,9) and the line y = 2/3x - 1.

The perpendicular distance (d) between a point ( $x_1,y_1$ ) and the line Ax + By + C = 0 is given as:

$d=\frac{|Ax_1+By_1+C|}{\sqrt{A^2+B^2} }$

The line is given by y = 2/3 x - 1; 2/3x - y - 1 = 0. The point = (2, 9)

hence A = 2/3, B = -1, C = -1, $x_1=2,y_1=9\\$ . Therefore:

$d=\frac{|\frac{2}{3}(2)+(-1)(9)+(-1) |}{\sqrt{\frac{2}{3}^2+(-1)^2 } } \\\\d=7.21$
