(not sure if I'm right) Using this Formula Part/Whole = %/100
$350/Original Price = 10%/100
cross multiply
10w = 35,000
divide by 10 on both sides
W = $3,500
(seems real high so I'm not sure)
Answer:
2 Gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
1 Gallon = 4 quarts
There are 8 quarts, and 8 divided by 4 is 2.
2 Gallons.
35 cm
using the formula a=1/2(b)(h), we can plug in 14 for b and 5 for h. This gives us 70, and when we multiply by 1/2 it leaves 35 cm.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If the bricklayer can construct the wall in its entirety in 3 hours, then he can get 1/3 of the job done in an hour.
If the apprentice can get the whole job done in 5 hours, then he can get 1/5 of the job done in an hour. If they both work together on said job, the equation is
and now we solve for x. Multiply everything by the LCM to get rid of the fractions. That would be 15x:
and doing that gives us
5x + 3x = 15 and
8x = 15 so
x = 1.875 hours which is 1 7/8 hours which is also 1 hour and 52 1/2 minutes.
Answer:
B. y = 1/3x
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of the given line is -3, so the slope of the perpendicular line will be the negative reciprocal of that: -1/(-3) = 1/3. This eliminates choices A and C.
We can find the y-intercept (b) if we use the given point values in the equation ...
y = 1/3x +b
we get ...
-2 = (1/3)(-6) +b
-2 = -2 +b . . . simplify
0 = b . . . . . . . add 2
So, the equation of the perpendicular line through the given point is ...
y = 1/3x . . . . matches choice B
_____
<em>Alternate solution method</em>
You can try the given point in the given equations. You will find that only the equation of choice B will work.
