Answer:
The equation of the perpendicular line would be y = -2/5x - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find this line, we must first find the slope of the original line. We do this by solving for y.
-5x + 2y = -10
2y = 5x - 10
y = 5/2x - 5
This shows us a slope of 5/2. TO find the perpendicular slope, we use the opposite and reciprocal. This means we negative 5/2 to get -5/2 and then we flip it to get -2/5. Now that we have this, we can use the slope and the point in point-slope form to get the equation.
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 1 = -2/5(x + 5)
y - 1 = -2/5x - 2
y = -2/5x - 1
Answer:
40 teabags for 0.96 (this is the most british question I've ever saw)
Step-by-step explanation:
1.62 / 60 = 0.027 (price per teabag)
0.96 / 40= 0.024 (price per teabag)
40 teabags for 0.96 is the better deal
Answer:
$51.70 is the original price
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
Turn 40% into a decimal which makes it 0.40
ex. 50% would be 0.50, 5% would be 0.05 etc.
Step 2:
Put the numbers into this formula: Original Price (x) - Percent Off times Original Price = Sales Price
x - 0.40x = 31.02 this is basically 1x - 0.40x = 31.02 so,
Solving the left side of our equation gives us 1x - 0.40x = 0.60x
so now you have: 0.60x = 31.02
Step 3:
Divide both sides by 0.60 which gets x by itself and gives us the original price which is $51.70
