Answer:

0.125 and 1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

To convert a percentage to a decimal, divide by 100 to move 2 decimal places to the left.

12.50% / 100 = 0.125

To convert a percentage into a fraction, rewrite the decimal number you got and put it over 1. Multiply the numerator and denominator by 1000 to move 3 decimal places to the right and get your fraction.

$\frac{0.125}{1}$ · $\frac{1000}{1000}$ = 125/1000

Divide the numerator and denominator by the GCF, 125, to get your simplified fraction.

125/125 = 1

1000/125 = 8

125/1000 = 1/8

Which sequence of transformations maps pre-image ABC to

matrenka [14]

Triangle ABC was reflected over the y-axis and then translated 2 units up and 2 units to the right

Transformation is the movement of a point from its initial location to a new location. Types of transformation are rotation, reflection, translation and dilation.

Translation is the movement of a point up, down, left or right. If a point A(x, y) is translated b units up and a units to the right, the new point is A'(x + a, y + b).

Reflection is the flipping of a figure. If a point A(x, y) is reflected along the y axis the new point is A'(-x, y).

Triangle ABC is at A(1, 2), B(4, 6) and C(7, 3). If it is reflected over the y-axis, the new point is A*(-1, 2), B*(-4, 6) and C*(-7, 3). If it is then translated 2 units up and 2 units to the right, the new image is:

A'(1, 4), B'(-2, 8) and C'(-5, 5)

Hence, Triangle ABC was reflected over the y-axis and then translated 2 units up and 2 units to the right

What is an equation of the line that passes through the points (-6, -5) and (-3,0)? Put your answer in fully reduced form.

MrMuchimi

Answer:

y = 5/3x +5

Step-by-step explanation:

The two-point form of the equation of a line is useful here.

y = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)(x -x1) +y1

y = (0 -(-5))/(-3 -(-6))(x -(-6)) -5

y = 5/3(x +6) -5

y = 5/3x +5 . . . . slope-intercept form

5x -3y = -15 . . . .standard form

_____

There is no "fully reduced" form of the equation of a line. There are slope-intercept form, point-slope form, two-point form, standard form, general form, intercept form, and some others. We assume that "fully reduced" applies to any fractions in the equation. The "slope-intercept" form has a fraction, so perhaps that's the form that is required.

Cara started working for $9 per hour. She earns a 4% raise every year. What is her

shutvik [7]

Answer:

Caras hourly wage is $10.08 after 3 years

Step-by-step explanation:

4% of 9

0.04 x 9 = 0.36

then you multiply 0.36 by 3 because you are solving for 3 years.

0.36 x 3 = 1.08

then you add 1.08 to 9 because Cara's wage goes up $1.08 in 3 years

1.08 + 9 = 10.08

answer:

Cara's hourly wage is $10.08 after 3 years of working
