Answer:

232 students are enrolled this year.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 15% of the enrollment of the previous year is gone, you must take 15% of the total number of students and subtract that from the total number of students.

280*0.15=42

This tells us that the 15% decrease means there are 42 fewer students enrolled this year. Now you would just subtract 42 from 280.

280 - 42 = 232

Answer: 238

Step-by-step explanation: 10% of 280 is 28. 1% of 280 is 2.8. Multiply 2.8 times 5 and you get 14. Add 10% and 5% (28+14) and you get 15% which is 42. Subtract 42 from 280 and you get 238.

In science class, a student is measuring the temperature of a solution in science experiment. The solution
Radda [10]

Answer:

-11.8

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

-3.4 to 12.4        increased  (difference = 15.8)

12.4 to 20.4      decreased (difference = 8)

20.4 to 3.2        increased  (difference = 17.2)

<u>To find:</u>

Final temperature.

Solution:

As we noticed, this is a pattern of increase, decrease, increase... (and so on and so forth). From this alone, we have gotten the clue that the temperature is going to decrease. But here is the thing, How far will it decrease?

Use the difference of the starting result to find the ending result.

3.2 - 15

= -11.8

Therefore, the final temperature is -11.8.

Find the equation of the line perpendicular to y=−2 that passes through the point (4, −2).
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

y = - 2 is the equation of a horizontal line parallel to the x- axis.

A perpendicular line is therefore a vertical line parallel to the y- axis with equation

x = c

where c is the value of the x- coordinates the line passes through.

The line passes through (4, - 2 ) with x- coordinate 4 , thus

x = 4 ← equation of perpendicular line

Write the equation of the line that passes through the given point and is perpendicular to the given line
Bumek [7]

Answer:

  • y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>The line x = 3 is parallel to y- axis, the perpendicular line is going to be parallel to x- axis and will have an equation:</u>

  • y = a

<u>Since it passes through the point (-2, 5), it will have a = 5:</u>

  • y = 5 is the line we need
