Step-by-step explanation:
For lines to be parallels the slopes must be equal, for the lines to be perpendicular the lines have to be inverse reciprocals meaning if you have a slope of 1/2X then the perpendicular line must be -2X
Answer: 9
Step-by-step explanation:
An elf ate 15 of your muffins and that was 5/8 of all of them. To get the number of muffins left goes thus:
We can first calculate the total number of muffins the person had. Let the total number of muffins be y. That means the elf ate 5/8 of y.
5/8 of y = 15
5/8 × y = 15
0.625 × y = 15
0.625y = 15
Divide both side by 0.625
0.625y/0.625 = 15/0.625
y = 24
The total amount of muffins is 24. Since the elf has eaten 15, the amount left will be: 24-15 = 9
