To solve for x you do these steps
x=number

1. do this following multiplication problem to get 0.9%
36/x*100%= 0.9%

2. now do the opposite of what you did before to get x
36 divided by 0.9%= x

36 divided by 0.9%= 40

x = 40

Which proportion can be used to show that the slope of JL is equal to the slope of MP

Ilya [14]

Answer:

See below and attached

Step-by-step explanation:

As per the graph we have:

Coordinates of JL are J(-7, 4), L(-4, 0)

Coordinates of MP are M(-10, 8), P(-1, -4)

Slope formula is:

m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

Slope of JL:

(0 - 4)/(-4-(-7)) = - 4 / 3

Slope of MP:

(-4 -8)/(-1- (-10)) = -12 / 9 = - 4/3
