Mathematics

Answer:

-20%

Step-by-step explanation:

Regular price = $600

Current sale price = $480

To find the percentage decrease in this case, use percentage change formula;

Percentage change = \frac{Current price - Regular price}{Regular price}*100

Next, plug in the numbers into the formula ;

Percentage change = \frac{(480 -600)}{600}*100 \\ \\ =\frac{-120}{600} *100\\ \\ =-0.2*100\\ \\ =-20%

Therefore, the percentage decrease is -20%

1..) 2x +15 = 35 
Masja [62]

Answer:

1) x=10

2) x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

1)

2x+15=35

Subtract 15 from both sides

2x=20

Divide both sides by 2

x=10

2(10)+15=35

20+15=35

35=35

this shows that 10 is the right answer

2)

7x-3=18

Add 3 to both sides

7x=21

Divide both sides by 7

x=3

7(3)-3=18

21-3=18

18=18

this shows that 3 is the right answer

Hope this helps

Select all points that are on the line through 0,5
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

Options (1), (3), and (4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, slope of a line passing through two points (x_1,y_1) and (x_2,y_2) is given by,

m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Therefore, slope of a line passing through (0, 5) and (2, 8) will be,

m = \frac{8-5}{2-0} = 1.5

Equation of line passing through (x', y') and slope 'm' is,

y - y' = m(x - x')

Therefore, equation of a line passing through (0, 5) and slope = 1.5,

y - 5 = 1.5(x - 0)

y = 1.5x + 5

Since, all the points which lie on this line will satisfy this equation.

For (4, 11),

11 = 1.5(4) + 5

11 = 11

Point (4, 11) lies on this line.

Point (5, 10)

10 = 1.5(5) + 5

10 = 7.5 + 5

10 = 12.5

But 10 ≠ 12.5

Therefore, (5, 10) doesn't line on the line.

Point (6, 14)

14 = 1.5(6) + 5

14 = 14

True.

Therefore, (6, 14) lies on the line.

Point (30, 50)

50 = 1.5(30) + 5

50 = 50

True.

Therefore, (30, 50) lies on the line.

Point (40, 60)

60 = 1.5(40) + 5

60 = 65

But 60 ≠ 65

Therefore, (40, 60) doesn't lie on the line.

Options (1), (3) and (4) and the correct options.
