Answer:

The slope will be 1/2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sine the lines are perpendicular, the slope of the green line will be the negative reciprocal of the slope of the red line. To find the negative reciprocal of -2, first change the sign. Since the slope is negative, make it positive 2. Then to find it's reciprocal, divide 1 by your answer. 1 divided by 2 is one half, s that is your answer.

A ramp slopes from a warehouse door down to the street. The height of the ramp is 5 feet, and the ramp ends 10 feet from the bas
Tomtit [17]
If you graph this, your first point will be at (0,5), as the ramp is at the warehouse door but 5 feet up. The second point is (10,0) as it is touching the ground but it's 10 feet away from the warehouse.
To find slope, you do (y2-y1)/(x2-x1).
When substituting in the variables, you get (0-5)/(10-0), which is -5/10, which is simplified to -1/2. Of course, that is when the warehouse is Quadrant II. If you look at it from another point of view, the slope will be positive so your answer is A) 1/2.

Caroline wants to buy a pair of shoes that has an original price of $40.00. She has a coupon for a 30% discount off of the origi
fredd [130]
Answer:
$26.32

step-by-step explanation:
it originally was $40.00
she has a coupon for 30%
30% of 40.00 is 12
40 • 0.30 = 12
40 - 12
$28
it is now $28 after the coupon
her state charges an 6% sales tax on the discounted price
6% of 28 is 1.68
28 • 0.06 = 1.68
28 - 1.68 = 26.32
