Answer:

Percentage of Discount :---

$\frac{(30 - 20)}{30} \times 100 = \frac{10}{30} \times 100=\boxed{33.33\%}$

Find the amount of the discount and divide by the original price:

30-20 = 10

10/30 = 0. 333

Multiply by 100 for percent:

0.333 x 100 = 33.3333%

Round the answer as needed.

find the equation of a straight line passing through the point (3,3) which is perpendicular to the line y=-1/2x-4

Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

y = 2x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = - $\frac{1}{2}$ x - 4 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - $\frac{1}{2}$

Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

$m_{perpendicular}$ = - $\frac{1}{m}$ = - $\frac{1}{-\frac{1}{2} }$ = 2, thus

y = 2x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (3, 3) into the partial equation

3 = 6 + c ⇒ c = 3 - 6 = - 3

y = 2x - 3 ← equation of perpendicular line

Please help me with these 5 questions!

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

Part 2) Option D. yes; k = 1/4 and y = 1/4x

Part 6) Option D. y = 1/5x-1

Part 8) Option C. line b

Part 11) Option D. -1/5

Part 15) Option A. line a

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 2) we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a directly variation if it can be expressed in the form $y=kx$

In a proportional relationship the constant of proportionality k is equal to the slope m of the line and the line passes through the origin

In this problem the line passes through the origin

therefore

Yes. y varies directly with x

Let

A(4,1)

The constant k is equal to

$k=y/x$

substitute

$k=1/4$

the equation is equal to

$y=(1/4)x$

Part 6) we know that

The y-intercept of the trend line is -1 (For x=0)

The slope of the trend line is positive

The x-intercept of the trend line is 5 (For y=0)

therefore

the equation is equal to

$y=(1/5)x-1$

Part 8) we have

$y+4=-\frac{2}{3}x$

This is the equation of a line into point slope form

The slope is negative $m=-2/3$

Pass through the point (0,-4) ----> y-intercept

The x-intercept is equal to

$0+4=-\frac{2}{3}x$

$x=-4*3/2=-6$

therefore

Is the line b

Part 11)

What is the slope of the line through the points (–2, –1) and (8, –3)?

we know that

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

$m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

substitute the values

$m=\frac{-3+1}{8+2}$

$m=\frac{-2}{10}$

simplify

$m=-\frac{1}{5}$

Part 15) we have

$y=3x-2$

The slope is positive $m=3$

The y-intercept is -2 (For x=0)

The x-intercept is (For y=0)

$0=3x-2$

$3x=2$

$x=2/3$

therefore the line is a
