Answer:
50 and 30.94
Step-by-step explanation:
The coat cost 46.5 pounds after a 7 percent reduction
so we can write:
- 46.5⇒ (100-7)⇒ 93 percent
- x(the initial price) ⇒ 100 percent
using the proprtionality relation:
x= (100*46.5)/93 = 50
so the initial price of the coat is 50 pounds
The jumper costs 32.8 pounds after an increase of 6 percent
so:
- 32.8⇒(100+6)⇒ 106 percent
- x (the initial price)⇒ 100 percent
using proportionality:
x= (100*32.8)/106 = 30.94
the initial price is 30.94 pounds
So, we just need to figure out what number means what.
So, the flat fee is $16. This is going to be charged even for "zero" hours of work. So, this will be the Y-intercept (also known as the B-Value)
$23 per hour means that as time progresses, you will be charged more. 23 will be our slope since it's price is dependent on time spent. The slope is also known as the M value.
So, we just plug in our numbers and get
Y = 23x + 16
