Answer:
-1/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Perpendicular lines have slopes that are the opposite reciprocal of one another.
The slope of line t is the opposite reciprocal of the slope of line s:
slope of t = -1/(slope of s)
slope of t = -1/5
Answer:
14
Step-by-step explanation:
The least common multiple is a number that both numbers can multiply something to get to, and the smallest possible common one.
Let's try listing out the multiples of 2:
2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20
And the multiples of 7:
7, 14, 21, 28, 35, 42, 49, 56, 63, 70
Notice that both have the number 14 in common, and it is the first number that they do so. There are lots of other multiples that they have in common too, but 14 is the least.
Answer:
There are 78 female members of the House of Representatives and 14 female members of the Senate.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let h equal the amount of female members of the House of Representatives and s equal the amount of female members in the Senate.
Since the amount of female officials in Congress is 92, and is made up of the House of Representatives and the Senate, we can represent this as the equation h+s=92
Since there are 64 more female members in the House of Representatives than female Senators, the senators would need 64 more female members to have the same amount as the House of Representatives. We can represent this as h=s+64.
Substituting, we get s+64+s=92, which simplifies to 2s+64=92. Subtracting 64 from both sides, we get 2s=28, which equals to s=14. There are 14 female senators. Substituting back into h+s=92, 14+s=92, and s=78. Therefore, there are 78 female members of the House of Representatives and 14 female members of the Senate.
The CPI increased from 29.6 to 82.4.
The rate of increase, is:
82.4/29.6 = 2.78
Now multiply this rate to the $0.14 price of grapes from 1960.
$0.14 x 2.78 = $0.39
Now to get the amount of increase subtract the new price from the original price:
$0.39 - $0.14 = $0.25 increase.
The correct answer is one solution
