<span>Two lines are parallel if their slope is the same.
You want to write 8x + 4y = 5 in the form y = mx + b, where m represents the slope and b is the y-intercept.
We need to isolate y in the given equation. The number next to x is the slope.
8x + 4y = 5
4y = -8x + 5

y = (-8x +5)/4
y = -2x + 5/4
The slope of the line we want is -2.
Two lines are perpendicular if the slope of the first line times the slope of the second line produces a product of negative one.
Since our slope is -2, we know that -2 times 1/2 yields -1.
The slope of the line perpendicular is 1/2. </span>

Tiffany buys a basket of watermelons on sale for \$9$9dollar sign, 9 before tax. The sales tax is 9\%9%9, percent.
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

<em>Tiffany pays a total price of $9.81 for the basket of watermelons</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Percentages</u>

To increase a certain amount by a given percentage, we can first calculate the increasing amount and then add it to the original amount.

If the price of the basket of watermelons was $9 before tax, and the sales tax is 9%, we first calculate the tax amount to pay:

$9 * 9 / 100 = $0.81

Now we add it to $9 to get the total price paid by Tiffany:

Total price = $9 + $0.81 = $9.81

Tiffany pays a total price of $9.81 for the basket of watermelons

What is the variable equal to?<br> t • 7 = 63<br> t = 12<br> t = 8<br> t = 9<br> t = 441
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

The variable t is equal to 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given t • 7 = 63.  To solve this for t, we divide both sides of this equation by 7, obtaining:

t = 63/7 = 9

The variable t is equal to 9.
