Slope of parallel line to this would be -1/3x
3(5j+4)
15j+12
final answer 15j+12
Answer: y =
x + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we will find the slope. The slope of perpendicular lines are negative reciprocals.
In this case, the first slope is 2. The negative of 2 is -2, and the reciprocal of -2 is
.
Now, we will plug in this new slope, the point given, and solve for the <em>b</em>, or the y-intercept.
y = <em>m</em>x + <em>b</em>
(-1) = (
)(4) + <em>b</em>
-1 = -2 + <em>b</em>
1 = <em>b</em>
Lastly, we will write our equation.
y = <em>m</em>x + <em>b</em>
y =
x + 1
The line is y =
x + 1, or y = 1 -
.
First we need to find what 3% of 700 is. We know 10% is 70, 5% is 35, so we need to find out what 3% is. If you don't know how to calculate percentages of a number, I recommend starting with 10%. This way you know 10% of the number is 70, so you will also know that 1% of the number is 7. 7 x 3 = 21. So 3% of 700 is 21. Since it was over 6 years, we multiply 21 x 6. That gives us 126. She will be paid $126 in interest in the first six years.
