Answer:

x = 60.9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number

x - 54%x = 28

x - 0.54x = 28

0.46x = 28

Divide both sides by 0.46(coefficient of x)

x = 28/0.46

x = 60.86

to the nearest tenth

x = 60.9

Which equations below represent lines that are perpendicular to the line that contains (1, -2) and (3, 4)? (CHECK PICS FOR ANSWE
Gala2k [10]

First, let's find the slope of the line from the points given.

m = (4 - - 2) / (3 - 1)

m = 6 / 2

m = 3

Secondly, we know that a line perpendicular to the original must have a slope that is the opposite reciprocal of the original. For the given points, the opposite reciprocal slope would be -1/3.

Now, we can put all of the equations below into slope intercept form and find the ones that have a slope of -1/3.

Equation 1: Correct

y = -1/3x - 5

Equation 2: Incorrect

y = 3x - 3

Equation 3: Incorrect

y - 2 = 3(x + 1)

y - 2 = 3x + 1

y = 3x + 2

Equation 4: Correct

x + 3y = 9

3y = -x + 9

y = -1/3x + 3

Equation 5: Incorrect

3x + y = -5

y = -3x - 5

Hope this helps!! :)
