Suppose the original price to be x.
62%x=296.4
Divide both sides by 62% to get x=478, which is the original price.
If the CAT operates with a constant speed of 53 mph (which means it beats 53 miles in one hour) and makes a trip in about 2 and 1/2 hours, we just have to multiply 53 by 2 1/2 to find out the overall distance it's beating in that time:
53 * 2 1/2 =
= 53 * 2.5 =
= 132.5
Answer: City A is about <u>132.5 miles</u> from city B.
Two lines are perpendicular if and only if the product of their slopes is - 1.
So, you just need to find the slope of each line and find out the product of their slopes.
I will do one example for you.
L1: y = 3x + 5
L2: y = - 3x + 14
L3: y = -x/3 + 14
The slope of a line is the coefficient of the x.
So the slopes are:
L1: slope 3
L2: slope -3
L3: slope -1/3
So now multiply the slopes of each pair of lines:
L1 and L2: 3 * (-3) = - 9 => No, they are not perpendicular
L2 and L3: (-3) * (-1/3) = 1 => No, they are not perpendicular
L1 and L3: (3) * (-1/3) = -1 => Yes, they are penpendicular.
