Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(-9,5) and (-1,5)

To find the slope of the line, we use the slope formula: (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)

Plug in these values:

(5 - 5) / (-1 - 9)

Simplify the parentheses.

= (0 ) / (-10)

Simplify the fraction.

0/-10

= 0

This is your slope.

This is also a horizontal line, which will have a slope of 0.

Slope = change in Y / change in x:

Slope = (5- 5) / (-1 - -9)

Slope = 0/8

Because the change in Y = 0, the slope = 0

Slope = 0

Find the percent of increase from 40 gallons to 89 gallons. Round to the nearest tenth of a percent if necessary.

fredd [130]

Solution

- 89 gallons contains 40 gallons twice such that:

$89=40+40+9$

- This means that we can find at least 200% of 40 gallons in 89 gallons. This gives us what to expect.

- To get the percentage we are looking for, we should use the formula:

$\frac{\text{new}}{\text{old}}\times100\text{ \%}$

New, in this case, is 89 gallons, Old is 40 gallons.

- Thus, we can calculate the percentage as follows:

$\begin{gathered} \frac{89}{40}\times100 \\ =2.225\times100 \\ =222.5\text{ \%} \end{gathered}$

Thus, the answer is 222.5%

Hannah buys 2/3 pound of roast beef. She uses 1/4 pound to make sandwiches for lunch. How much roast beef does she have left?

Vanyuwa [196]

First we need to make both fractions equal to each other, and that means having to have the denominators the same.

What both 3 and 12 easily go into is 12.

So we need to make both fractions have a denominator of 12, so we multiply.

2/3 * 4/4 = 8 / 12

1/4 * 3/3 = 3 / 12

Now, we know that she has 8 / 12 pounds, and she uses 3 / 12 of it, so now we subtract to find how much she has left.

8 - 3 = 5

Out of the 12 pounds of roast beef, she now has 5 / 12 left.
