Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this by drawing it out

Family B has part of their north-south direction negated by going 1 degree north of east, because they are going south and then going north. Family A does not do this, and as a result, with all else equal, they go further away.

Complete the point-slope equation of the line through (-8,-8) and (-7,9)
denis23 [38]

Step-by-step explanation:

point slope formula: y-y1=m(x-x1)

m= y2-y1/x2-x1

input numbers

so slope:

m=(9--8)/(-7--8)

(-)×(-)=+

(+)×(-)=(-)

so m=17/1

m=17

now point slope

y--8=17(x--8)

y+8=17x+136

to get y alone we have to use opposite operations

y and 8 are adding so we need to subtract on both sides

y+8-8=17x+136-8

y=17x+128

How much profit will a store make on the sale of a flat screen TV that is marked up by 30% and then sold at a 20% discount if th
notsponge [240]

The flat screen TV that is marked up by 30% and 20% discount had a profit of $60 after being sold.

The mark up percentage is given by:

Mark up percentage = (selling price - cost price)/cost price

Since the original price is $1500, hence:

30% = (selling price - 1500)/1500

0.3 = (selling price - 1500)/1500

(selling price - 1500) = 450

Selling price = $1950

It was again sold at a discount of 20%:

Final selling price= 1950 - 20% of 1950 = 1560

Profit = 1560 - 1500 = $60

Hence $60 profit was made by the store for the sale of a flat screen TV.

How you know a fraction is less than 1/2
nikitadnepr [17]

The fraction will continue to be the same numerator "1". However the denominator will be a greater number. Such as 4. Then you will know it is broken into more peices (as being a greater number). These pieces will automatically be a smaller fraction.

So, in order to know if a fraction is less then 1/2, it will have a greater denominator.

hope this helps :)
