Answer:

Option (b) is correct.

The slope of line shown in given graph is $\frac{9}{7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A graph with an equation of line having two points (1,6) and (-6, -3)

We have to find the slope of the given line in graph and choose the correct from the given options.

Consider the two points (1,6) and (-6, -3).

Slope between two points can be calculated using the formula as,

$\mathrm{Slope}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Here, $\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(1,\:6\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(-6,\:-3\right)$

Thus, Slope is

$m=\frac{-3-6}{-6-1}=\frac{9}{7}$

Thus, The slope of line shown in given graph is $\frac{9}{7}$

The slope is positive 9/7 bc you go up 9 from the first point and 7 to the right

Roland bought a dresser for k dollars. After restoring it, he sold it for 3.1k dollars. Which is another way to describe the cha

xxMikexx [17]

Answer: 210 percent increase

Step-by-step explanation: So w know the starting value is k so we can replace it with 1 dollar

now we know he bought the dresser for 1 dollar and sold it for 3.10 dollars

First we have to subtract the starting value 3.1 - the original value

3.1 - 1 = 2.1

then we have to divide that number by the starting value

2.1 divided by 1 = 2.1

Lastly multiply times 100 to get the percent increase

2.1 x 100 = 210 % increase

A lottery ticket which pays $1 million dollars will only cost you $1 dollar. To win a person must match 5 numbers from a total o

slavikrds [6]

The total combinations of 5 numbers that can be made from 59 numbers is:

59C5 = 5,006,386

So the probability of winning is:

P = 1 / 5,006,386

P = 1.997 x 10^-7

So the expected payoff is:

P = $1,000,000 (1.997 x 10^-7) - $1 (1 - 1.997 x 10^-7)

Joe wants to buy a skateboard but he doesn't know if he has enough money. The price of the skateboard is $85 and the sales tax i

Orlov [11]

Answer:

<h2> The skateboard has a total cost of $90.10</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

The skateboard costs $85.
The sales tax is 6%.

The total cost of the skateboard would be $85 plus the sales tax, like the following expression shows

$85+0.06(85)=85+5.1=90.1$

Therefore, the skateboard has a total cost of $90.10, which includes sales tax.
