Answer: The answer is 500,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

100% - 30% = 70%

x => 100%

350000 => 70%

x = 350000*100% / 70%

x = 500000

The figure below has a height of 18 inches and a volume of 864 cubic inches. What is the area of the base of the figure? A. 7776

Alik [6]

I think it might be B. 48 due to the fact 18 • 48 = 864. I think it would be easier to figure out if there was a picture to go with it. Don’t take my word for it though. Sorry.

Step-by-step explanation:

We search for red balls (neither yellow or black). There are 6 red balls among all 18 balls. Selecting one ball, there is a chance 6/18 that we pull out a red one. 6/18 is the same as 1/3.

Points (3,1) and (1,4) lie on line k. What is the slope of the line that is perpendicular to k?

denis-greek [22]

First we need to find the slope of line k. Using the slope formula, we fill in accordingly: $m= \frac{4-1}{1-3}$ . The slope is -3/2. The slope of a line that is perpendicular to line k will have the opposite sign (so, positive) and will be the reciprocal of the line k's slope (so, 2/3). You could also say, more "mathematically legal", that the product of the slopes of perpendicular lines is -1, but it's easier to just say that they are opposite reciprocals. The slope you're looking for is 2/3. Choice 3 above.
