let length be x

ATQ

\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{2}{8}\times x=28

\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{2x}{8}=28

\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{x}{4}=28

\\ \sf\longmapsto x=4(28)

\\ \sf\longmapsto x=112

Step-by-step explanation:

there is something wrong with your problem description.

the offered answer options do not fit to the solution as it is described.

2/8th of a rope is 28 meters long. how long is the whole rope ?

as the other answer said : 2/8 = 1/4

and 1/4th of the rope x = 28 m

1/4 × x = 28

x (the length of the whole rope) = 4×28 = 112 meters

but - maybe the original problem said that 7/8th (and not 2/8th) of a rope is 28 m.

7/8 × x = 28

1/8 × x = 4

x = 32 m

then A (32) would be the right answer !

What is the slope of a line perpendicular to y = 8 - 2/7x?
Salsk061 [2.6K]
The slope of the current line is -2/7. To find the slope of the line perpendicular to it, find the negative reciprocal of the slope. So it would be 7/2. The y intercept or the b would remain the same so the equation would be y=7/2x+8. Hope this helps.
