To convert a decimal to a percent, multiply the decimal by 100, then add on the % symbol. An easy way to multiply a decimal by 100 is to move the decimal point two places to the right.
Answer:
a = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 2x + 1 ......(1)
Going through y - y1 = m(x - x1)
m is slope and it is 2
y1 = 9 and x1 = a
y - 9 = 2(x - a)
y - 9 = 2x - 2a
y = 2x - 2a + 9 ........(2)
Equating (1) and (2)
2x + 1 = 2x - 2a + 9
Collecting like terms
2x - 2x + 2a = 9 - 1
2a = 8
a = 8/2
a = 4
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
3 squared is 9. 5 squared is 25. 25 + 9 = 34. 5 + 3 = 8. So the smaller number is 3.
