Answer:

53.85%

Step-by-step explanation:

75-48.75= 26.25

26.25/48.75x100= 53.8461538462 Round 53.85%

Check Answer:

48.75 x 53.85%=26.251875 Round 26.25

48.75 + 26.25=75

Hence, the correct answer is 53.85%.

Write an equation of the line that is perpendicular to 2x + 4y = 6 and passes through the point (6, 4) ). es A ) y = 2x + 4 B) y

netineya [11]

Answer:

B - y = 2x - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: find slope

2x + 4y = 6

4y = -2x + 6

Make y the subject of the formula

y =( -2x + 6)/4

We can separate to get the slope

y = -2x/4 + 6/4

y = -x/2 + 3/2

Slope m = -1/2

Step 2: using a point slope form equation

y - y1 = m ( x - x1)

Note: if two lines are perpendicular to the other, it is always a negative reciprocal of each other

ie m = 2

Substitute m into the equation

y - y1 = 2(x - x1)

Step 3: sub the point

( 6 , 4)

x1 = 6

y1 = 4

y - 4 = 2( x - 6)

Step 4 : using a slope intercept form equation

Open the bracket

y - 4 = 2x - 12

y = 2x - 12 + 4

y = 2x - 8

The equation of a line is

y = 2x - 8

Which point on the number line best represents√57?

Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sqrt{57} =\sqrt{3 * 19}$

Since this cannot be further simplified, we will calculate the square root of 57 with our calculators.

We find that the square root of 57 is 7.549834435, and since the tenths place is a 5, we will round up to the next whole number. So, the point on the number line that best represents the square root of 57 is 8.

Hope this helps!

4(3x^2y^4)^3 / (2x^3y^5)^4

tatyana61 [14]

Solving the expressions $\frac{4(3x^2y^4)^3}{(2x^3y^5)^4}$ we get $\frac{27}{4x^{6}y^{8}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to Solve the expression: $\frac{4(3x^2y^4)^3}{(2x^3y^5)^4}$

Solving:

$\frac{4(3x^2y^4)^3}{(2x^3y^5)^4}$

$=\frac{4(3^3x^6y^{12})}{(2^4x^{12}y^{20})}\\=\frac{4(27x^6y^{12})}{(16x^{12}y^{20})}\\=\frac{108x^6y^{12}}{16x^{12}y^{20}}$

Applying exponent rule: $\frac{x^a}{x^b}=x^{a-b}$

$=\frac{108x^{6-12}y^{12-20}}{16}\\=\frac{27x^{-6}y^{-8}}{4}$

Another exponent rule says: $x^{-a}=\frac{1}{x^a}=$

$=\frac{27}{4x^{6}y^{8}}$

So, solving the expressions $\frac{4(3x^2y^4)^3}{(2x^3y^5)^4}$ we get $\frac{27}{4x^{6}y^{8}}$
