Percentage difference is always relative to one of the items.
I.e. the factors are either 36/96 or 96/36.
If the reference is the 96" width, then difference is 96-36=60, and the percentage difference is 60/96=5/8=0.625 or 62.5%
If the reference is 36" (yes, usually the first mentioned item), the difference is still 60, but the percentage difference is 60/36=5/3=166.7%

96-36= 60
so 60/96* 100% =62.5%

What’s the linear equation in slope intercept form to (-3,7) and (6,-8)?

Aleonysh [2.5K]

Y= -5/3x + 2

To find slope:
-8-7 / 6 - (-3) = -5/3

Plug in x and y from one of the points to the equation to find b

7 = -5/3 (-3) + b

B = 2

Put it all together:

y = -5/3x + 2

Q5:

$\frac{\sqrt{3x^2y^3}}{4\sqrt{5xy^3}}$

$\frac{\sqrt{3}xy\sqrt{y}}{4\sqrt{5}y\sqrt{x}\sqrt{y}}$

Cancel off $\sqrt{x}$ :

$\frac{\sqrt{3}y\sqrt{x}\sqrt{y}}{4\sqrt{5}y\sqrt{y}}$

Cancel off $y:$

$\frac{\sqrt{3}\sqrt{x}\sqrt{y}}{4\sqrt{5}\sqrt{y}}$

Cancel off $\sqrt{y} :$

$\frac{\sqrt{3}\sqrt{x}}{4\sqrt{5}}$

Multiply $\sqrt{5}$ on the numerator and denominator:

$\frac{\sqrt{3}\sqrt{x}\sqrt{5}}{4\sqrt{5}\sqrt{5}}$

$\frac{\sqrt{15}\sqrt{x}}{20}$

To find the length of the ladder, you need to do Pythagorean theorem.
50^2 + 30^2 = x^2
2500 + 900 = x^2
x^2 =3400
x= square root of 3400
58.31 OR 10 root34

To find the angle:
tan theta = opposite/adjacent
50/30 = 5/3
theta = tan inverse of 5/3
= 59.04
