According to the 2010 u. s. census, there are approximately 8 million people living in virginia. this is 2.8 million less than 4 times the population of nevada. what is the population of nevada? the first step is to on both sides. add 2.8 subtract 2.8 multiply 2.8 divide 2.8 the second step is to on both sides. add 4 subtract 4 multiply 4 divide 4 the population of nevada is million. 1.3 2.7 11.4 43.2

The first step is to add 2.8  on both sides.

The second step is to divide by 4  on both sides.

The population of Nevada is 2.7  million.

c. y = 1/4 x + 5

step-by-step explanation:

first, put the equation of the line on the graph into slope-intercept form

(y = mx + b):   y = -4x + 8

second, a perpendicular line has to have "an opposite/reciprocal slope" to the original slope. so, find the "m" value in your original equation (it's -4, right? )

original slope: m = -4   perpendicular slope: change the sign to its opposite and find the reciprocal ("flip" the number)

new slope is now positive (b/c the original slope was negative 4), and it's 1/4 (not the original slope of 4 or 4/1)

ratio is 2 : 9

the answer is three

13.5 : 3
