We need to find out how much 17 percent of 2,500 is, and then subtract that amount by 2,500. We can use proportions to use this. We can set up a fraction with x/2500 and another fraction with 17/100. Then, we need to cross multiply. This gives us 42,500. Next, we can divide by 100. This gives us 425. We know that they will save $425 if they decrease their energy use by 17%. We now need to subtract $425 from $2,500. This gives us $2,075. If the company is successful in decreasing their energy use by 17%, their bill would be $2,075.

The least common denominator is 5y, and can be obtained by multiplying 
-1/y by 5/5 to get -5/5y. 

If we add the numbers using the least common denominator, we get:
-5/5y + 2/5y = -3/5y

Which statement is true? I know it’s not the first one.

2nd one: AB = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Because PQ is 4 (Pythagorean triples), you can prove that triangle PBQ is congruent to PAQ by HL. You can then say AQ is equal to 3 becasue of CPCTC. AQ+QB=AB, or 3+3=6. AB=6

What is the gradient between (0,3) and (1,8).
trasher [3.6K]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

(x1 , y1) = ( 0 , 3)

(x2 , y2) = ( 1 , 8)

Now

Gradient =

\frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}

=  \frac{8 - 3}{1 - 0}  \\  =  \frac{5}{1}  \\  = 5

Hope it will help :)
