How do you work out this problem, step by step please I am so lost. Year Average Household Income (before taxes) Food Housing Tr

Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

(a)Food-12%

9b)Transportation-17%

Step-by-step explanation:

In the Year 2000

Average Household Income (before taxes)=$44,649
Amount Spent on Food =$5,158
Amount Spent on Transportation=$7,417

Therefore:

(a)Percentage of the average household income in 2000 was spent on food

$=\dfrac{5158}{44649} \times 100\\\\=11.55\%\\\\\approx 12\% $(to the nearest percent.)$

(b)Percentage of the average household income in 2000 was spent on transportation

$=\dfrac{7,417}{44649} \times 100\\\\=16.6\%\\\\\approx 17\% $(to the nearest percent.)$

I have this point: (-1,2) and my slope is undefined. How would I write my equation in point-slope form: y - y^1 = m (x -x^1)? Th

tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the point, (-1, 2), and that the slope is undefined.

The standard linear equation of vertical lines is x = a, where the x-intercept is (a, 0), and the slope is undefined because all points on the line have the same x-coordinate. Attempting to solve for the slope of a vertical line using the slope formula, m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁), will result in a mathematical operation of division by zero (which is an undefined operation).

Since the slope is undefined, then it is not possible to create a linear equation in either the slope-intercept form, or point-slope form.

Therefore, the equation of a vertical line given the point, (-1, 2) is x = -1.
