Answer:  The correct option is (A) (0, -1).

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to find the co-ordinates of the y-intercept of the function shown in the graph.

From the graph, we see that the line passes through the points (-6, -4) and (-2, -2).

So, the slope of the line is

m=\dfrac{-2-(-4)}{-2-(-6)}=\dfrac{2}{4}=\dfrac{1}{2}.

Since the line passes through the point (-2, -2), so the equation of the line is given by

y-(-2)=m(x-(-2))\\\\\\\Rightarrow y+2=\dfrac{1}{2}(x+2)\\\\\Rightarrow 2y+4=x+2\\\\\Rightarrow x-2y=2~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)

At x = 0, we get from (i) that

0-2y=2\\\\\Rightarrow y=-\dfrac{2}{2}\\\\\Rightarrow y=-1.

Thus, the y-intercept of the given line is (0, -1).

Option (A) is CORRECT.

Ella purchased a game that was on sale for 12% off. The sales tax in her county is 6%. Let y represent the original price of the
klio [65]

Answer:

The expression that can be used to determine the final cost of the game is

1.06(0.88 y) ⇒ (C)

Step-by-step explanation:

  • If the price of an item is discounted, that mean its new price will be less its initial price
  • The taxes on item, makes its new price greater than the initial price because tax is add

Let us solve the problem

∵ Ella purchased a game that was on sale for 12% off

→ That means the new price will (100% - 12%) of the initial price

∵ y represented the initial price of the game

→ Multiply y by (100% - 12%) to get the new price

∴ The new price = y (100% - 12%)

∴ The new price = y (88%)

→ Change 88% to normal number by divide it by 100

∴ The new price = y (\frac{88}{100})

∴ The new price = 0.88 y

∵ The sales tax in her county is 6%

→ That means the final cost will be (100% + 6%) of 0.88 y

∴ The final cost = (100% + 6%) × (0.88 y)

∴ The final cost = 106% × (0.88 y)

→ Change 106% to normal number by divide it by 100

∴ The final cost = \frac{106}{100} × (0.88 y)

∴ The final cost = 1.06(0.88 y)

The expression that can be used to determine the final cost of the game is 1.06(0.88 y)

The answer would be the Last option (D). This because it poses the proportion of 48 in (Amber's height) / 60 in (Lucy's height) and puts it equal to the proportion of x (what is Amber's height in the photo) / 3 (what is Lucy's height in the photo. Hope this helps :)
