Answer:1.20$

Step-by-step explanation:

so with some problems like this what you can do is multiply the numbers you’re given especially with percentages this makes it really easy to solve all you need to do is multiply the 6$ and the 20% by making the 20% into a decimal and for this problem the 20% would be 0.2. and after you’ve done that you multiply the 6$ with 0.2 and you should get your answer

7. Write the equation of a line which passes through the points (-3,5) and (6,23)

faust18 [17]

Answer:

answer to the equation is

$y = 2x + 11$

Step-by-step explanation:

$y = mx + b$

first find the slope of the line using the two points

$slope \: m = \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1} = \frac{23 - 5}{6 - ( - 3)} \\ = \frac{18}{9} \\ slope \: m = 2$

substitute 2 for m and use one of the points for x and y and solve for b

$5 = 2( - 3) + b \\ 5 = - 6 + b \\ 5 + 6 = b \\ b = 11$

Now that you found b, the y-intercept, you can substitute that into the equation for your line

$y = 2x + 11$
