The altitude's slope must be perpendicular to that of the line.
The slope of segment BC is 2/5. The slope of the altitude must be perpendicular to 2/5. Since the negative reciprocal of 2/5 is -5/2, then the slope of the altitude is -5/2.
Since the sweater is now 30% off, that means it is selling for 70% of it's original price ( 100% - 30% = 70%).
Multiply the original price by 70%:
52 x 0.70 = 36.40
The sale price is $36.40
The current value of the precious metal is $144/oz
-First, you'd want to determine the original value per ounce since that's what the final unit being asked for is.
- Since the original value of the half ounce piece is given, this first step is fairly simple. You just double ninety.
- We now know that the metal was worth $180/oz when the museum first received it.
- We need to determine the current price of the metal now that is has had a twenty percent loss of value.
- My favorite way to factor in 20% is simply to divide by five since it's a lot more simple than finding the ratio of x$/1%
- $180/5=$36
- Thirty-six dollars is the price drop over the course of the museum possessing the precious metal.
- You now take $180-$36=$144
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
Labor productivity is is measured per hours.
Hence, the work he does [amount of claims] will be distributed amongst the amount of hours he works. The amount of dollar he uses <em>doesn't matter for labor productivity.</em>
<em />
Thus, his work is 6 claims. He does that is 8 hours. So claim/hr is:
6/8 = 0.75 claims per hour
Answer choice D is right.
