Answer:

$525

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the original price by using the formula x - 0.36x = 336, where x is the original price, 0.36 is the discount percentage (converted to decimal form), and 336 is the total amount paid after the discount is applied:

x-0.36x=336\\0.64x=336\\x=525

To check and further understand why the formula works, we can simply apply the discount to the original price and subtract the number from the original price:

525 * 0.36 = 189

525 - 189 = 336

Modeling the first formula gives us:

525 - (0.36 * 525) = 336

525 - 189 = 336

The table represents a liner function. What is the slope of the function?
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

The slope is 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's use the slope formula to calculate the slope of this function. Remember, slope equals rise over run, or the difference between y coordinates divided by the difference between x coordinates of 2 points on the graph.

Let's use the last 2 points in the table: (1, 7) and (2, 10)

\frac{y_{2} - y_{1} }{x_{2} - x_{1} }

= \frac{10 - 7}{2 - 1}

= \frac{3}{1}

The slope of this function is 3!

Hope this helps :) Feel free to ask me any questions!
