To answer this (specifically the first one) you have to count how many spaces each point moves. (How many spaces up/down does it go? Left/right?) then you put rise (up/down) over run (left/right) and you should get the slope!
Answer:
Gotta multiply them
Step-by-step explanation:
The increase is $5000-$4000=$1000. The ratio of this increase to the original price is
$1000
-------- = 1/4 (no units of measurement here)
$4000
Hello there! Given there are 70 employees after downsizing by 30%, let x equal the number of employees prior to the layoffs:
70 would have to be 70% of x.
To find what 70 is 70% of, we can multiply by 100 because 100 is the base denominator:
70 • 100 = 7,000
Given this equation, we can now divide our result by 70 to get what the amount of employees before the layoffs is:
7,000 divided by 70 gives us 100.
x = 100
Now, we can plug our answer in to see if it makes sense.
Does 70/100 represent 70%?
Yes, it does. 70/100 reduces to 7/10, and by adding 3/10 to our 70%, we get the initial amount of employees.
Your final answer: There were 100 employees prior to the layoffs. If you have any extra questions, let me know and I will gladly assist you.
Answer:
An equation has an equal sign between two expressions, while an inequality has a ≤ or ≥ sign.
