Hello!

4 dozen is 48 eggs (if you forget the whole bakers dozen thing). If 6 were broken, that is 1/8. To find our percent, we divide.

1/8=0.125

We multiply by 100 to get a percent.

12.5%

Therefore, 12.5% of his money went to waste.

I hope this helps!

he paid = 4*10 = $40

48 eggs = $40

so, waste money would be 6/48 * 100 = 12.5%

Using Slopes of Parallel Lines Quick Check

Semenov [28]

Answer:

The answer is (B) ⇒ Yes. AB is parallel to CD and AD is parallel to BC

Step-by-step explanation:

There is an important fact about the parallel lines:

Parallel lines have equal slopes

The rule of the slope of a line is:

$m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1}}$ , where $(x_{1},y_{1})$ and $(x_{2},y_{2})$ are two points on the line

Let us use the fact and the rule to solve the question

∵ ABCD is a quadrilateral

∵ A = (0, 2) , B = (2, 6), C = (9, 6), D = (7, 2)

∵ The opposite sides are AB, CD and AD, BC

Find the slopes of the four sides to check the parallel sides

∵ $m_{AB}=\frac{6-2}{2-0}=\frac{4}{2}=2$

∵ $m_{CD}=\frac{2-6}{7-9}=\frac{-4}{-2}=2$

∵ The slope of AB = The slope of CD

∴ AB // CD

∵ $m_{AD}=\frac{2-2}{7-0}=\frac{0}{7}=0$

∵ $m_{BC}=\frac{6-6}{9-2}=\frac{0}{7}=0$

∵ The slope of AB = The slope of CD

∴ AD // BC

The correct answer is:

Yes. AB is parallel to CD and AD is parallel to BC ⇒ (B)
