Answer:

$677.18

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Bill’s nominal income in 1990 = $1,009 per month

CPI value in the year 1990 = 149

CPI value in the year 2017 = 192

Now,

The Consumer price index ( CPI ) is given as :

CPI = \frac{\textup{Cost of basket in the current year}}{\textup{Cost of basket in the base year}}\times100

thus,

for the given case of year 1990

149 = \frac{\textup{1,009}}{\textup{Real income in the year 1990}}\times100

or

Real income in 1990 = \frac{\textup{1,009}}{\textup{149}}\times100

or

Real income in 1990 = $677.18

Use similarity property:

14 / (14+6) = 21 / (21 + (x+4))

14/20 = 21/(x+25)       cross multiplication property

14*(x+25) = 20*21

14x + 350 = 420

14x = 70

x = 70/14 = 5.

A line passes through the point (–2, 7) and has a slope of –5. A coordinate plane. What is the value of a if the point (a, 2) is
Nana76 [90]

Y = mx + c

7= (-5)(-2)+ c

7= 10 +c

7-10=c

-3=c

Equation of the line: y = -5x-3

Sub in (a, 2)

2= - 5(a)-3

2+3= -5a

5= - 5a

1= - a

A = -1
