Answer:
a perfect square because 17 x 17 = 289
It's not a perfect cube
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel have same slope
Perpendicular have opposite reciprocal slopes. Ex. 2/3 is slope of one line so the perpendicular line would have slope of -3/2.
Find slopes of these lines.
-4x-5y=-4
-4x+4 =5y
Divide by 5
Y= -4x/5 +4/5
Second line: 10x-8y=-1
10x+1=8y
Divide by 8
10x/8 +1/8 =y
Y= 5x/4 +1/8
So if you look at slope of line 1= -4/5 and line 2 it’s 5/4 so these both are perpendicular.
To get the solution, we are looking for, we need to point out what we know.
1. We assume, that the number 45.5 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task.
2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for.
3. If 45.5 is 100%, so we can write it down as 45.5=100%.
4. We know, that x is 6.81% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=6.81%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 45.5=100%
2) x=6.81%
where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:
45.5/x=100%/6.81%
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.
7. Solution for what is 6.81% of 45.5
45.5/x=100/6.81
(45.5/x)*x=(100/6.81)*x - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
45.5=14.684287812041*x - we divide both sides of the equation by (14.684287812041) to get x
45.5/14.684287812041=x
3.09855=x
x=3.09855
now we have:
6.81% of 45.5=3.09855
Hope this helps!
