Step-by-step explanation:

let the percent of found balloons be x

given,

total number of balloons= 70

number of found balloons= 28

according to the question,

x% of 70= 28

x/100 × 70 = 28

x=40

hence 40% of the balloons were found

Dovator [93]

Step-by-step explanation:

3 pairs of flip flops = 14.95 x 3 = 44.85

Total amount spent = 44.85 + 21.50 + 9.99 + 15. 44 = 91.78

After adding tax = 91.78 + 7.34 = 99.12

Mrs B spent 99.12 altogether

Budget = 100

Then money left = 100 - 99.12 = 0.88

Can someone please answer this???? ASAP

Answer:

A. $y=-\dfrac{8}{7}x-\dfrac{18}{7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $y=mx+b$ be the equation of the perpendicular line.

Two perpendicular lines have slopes with product equal to -1. The slope of the given line is $\frac{7}{8}$ Hence,

$\dfrac{7}{8}\cdot m=-1\\ \\m=-\dfrac{8}{7}$

is the slope of needed line.

This line passes through the point (-4,2), so its coordinates satisfy the equation:

$2=-\dfrac{8}{7}\cdot (-4)+b\\ \\b=2-\dfrac{32}{7}=-\dfrac{18}{7}$

Therefore, the equation of the line is

$y=-\dfrac{8}{7}x-\dfrac{18}{7}$
