Answer:

33% discount

Step-by-step explanation:

15$ is the amount that was taken off so now we just need to convert it to a % of 45

45/100 = 30/?

if you do cross multiplication and multiply 30 * 100 then divide the result (3000) by 45 you get 66

This means that 30$ is 66% of 45. To find the discount you just subtract 66% (this represents your 30$ new price) from 100% (this represents the 45% original price) and you get 33%.

Find the equation of the line that passes through (-1,3) and is perpendicular to 2y=x−1. Leave your answer in the form y=mx +c A
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

y = -2x + 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

2y = x - 1

y = 1/2y - 1/2

If line X is perpendicular to line Y (the line where y = 1/2y - 1/2), the slope will be the negative reciprocal of line Y. That means that there will be a negative sign instead of positive, and the 1/2 will be flipped to become 2/1, which is 2.

So, the slope will be -2.

We now have y = -2x + c.

To find c, simply put in -1 for x and 3 for y.

3 = -2 * -1 + c

c + 2 * 1 = 3

c + 2 = 3

c = 1

So, the equation of the line is y = -2x + 1.

Hope this helps!

F of x equals four divided by x. <br> and g of x equals four divided by x
nikdorinn [45]
F(x)=8/x, g(x)=8/x
f(g(x)) = f(8/x)=8/<span>8/x=x,
</span>g(f(x)) =g(8/x) =8/<span>8/x=x,
so </span>f(g(x)) = g(f(x)) = x. if <span>f of x equals eight divided by x and g of x equals eight divided by x
