The correct answer is:
How to find X if P percent of it is Y. Use the percentage formula Y/P% = X
Convert the problem to an equation using the percentage formula: Y/P% = X
Y is 26,400, P% is 16%, so the equation is 26,400/16% = X
Convert the percentage to a decimal by dividing by 100.
Converting 16% to a decimal: 16/100 = 0.16
Substitute 0.16 for 16% in the equation: 26,400/0.16 = X
Do the math: 26,400/0.16 = X
X = 165,000
So $ 165,000 is the price of the home.
I hope this helps you!!
240 is 240% of 576
240% x 240 = x
(240 x 240) divide by 100
57,600 divide by 100 = 576
x = 576
All of the statements except the first are true whether p ║ q or not.

The "corresponding angles postulate" tells you that the lines are parallel if the corresponding angles are equal.
First find the slope of the given line:
4x +2y = 1
Subtract 4x from each side:
2y = -4x + 1
Divide both sides by 2:
y = -2x +1/2
The slope is -2.
Now use the slope to find the y-intercept. Because the line is perpendicular, you need to use the negative inverse of the slope.
The negative inverse of -2 is 1/2
Now using the point-slope form y - y1 = m(x-x1)
Use the inverse slope for m, and the given point(-4,3) to get:
y - 3 = 1/2(x+4)
Simplify:
y - 3 = x/2 +2
Add 3 to each side:
y = x/2 + 5
Reorder the terms to get y = 1/2x +5
