Answer:

The options are not shown, so i will answer in a general way.

First, for a line of the form:

y = a*x + b

All the perpendicular lines will have a slope of -(1/a), then we can write a general perpendicular line as:

y = -(1/a)*x + c.

In this problem we have the perpendicular lines:

y=(s/t)*x+10

y = (q/r)*x - 4

Because those lines are perpendicular, we must have that:

(q/r) = -(1/(s/t)) = -(t/s)

q/r = -t/s

and we knew that s, t, q and r are integers (where t and r can not be equal to zero), and because of this relation, where we can see that in the denominator at the right we have the integer s, we can conclude that s can not be zero (we can not divide by zero).

And we know that t and s are both different than zero, then:

-t/s ≠ 0.

This means that:

q/r ≠ 0

And from this, we can conclude that q is different than zero.

A book club has 200 members
nikklg [1K]
So these are decmials of the accutal total so

.32=32%
what makes this question easy is that there are 200 members so to convert the percents into accutall numbers so like .32=32%=64 people (since 200 is 2 times of 100)

A. fiction of 31-40 compared to 21-30
fiction 31-40=.38=38%=76 readers
fiction 21-30=.32=32%=64 readers
76-64=12
A is FALSE

B. so we want to know how many people are 31-40 and prefer fiction
so .38=38% and 38% of 200=76
B is FALSE

C 43 members are 21-30
so we look at the total row for the 21-30 people and see that .43 or 43% or 86 people are in the 21-30 age group
C is FALSE

D. 140 members prefer fiction
look at the total column for fiction and see that .70 like fiction .70=70%=140 people
D is TRUE

so A,B,C are FALSE
D is TRUE
