Answer:
y = 3x -8
Step-by-step explanation:
I find it convenient to start with a version of the point-slope form of the equation for a line. That is, for point (h, k) and slope m, ...
y = m(x -h) +k
For your m=3 and (h, k) = (3, 1), this equation becomes ...
y = 3(x -3) +1
Eliminating parentheses puts this in the form you desire:
y = 3x -8
Answer:
1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
To find slope, we use the formula rise over run (y2-y1 over x2-x1)
So first, our y's: 7-5=2
And our x's: 12-4=8
2/8 simplifies to 1/4
Answer:
try your best
Step-by-step explanation:
Firstly, we have to find out what 10% of $25000 is. To do this, multiply $25000 by 0.1 (10% in decimal form):
. <em>$2500 is the 10% raise.</em>
Next, to find your first new salary, add $25000 and $2500 together:
. <u>$27500 is your new salary after the 10% raise.</u>
Next, we need to find 10% of $27500. It's a similar process as to finding 10% of $25000.
. <em>$2750 is your 10% cut.</em>
Next, since this is a cut, subtract $2750 from $27500.
. <u>$24750 is your new salary after the 10% cut.</u>
Next, to find the percentage change, firstly divide $24750 by $25000.
. Now this shows that your current salary is 99% of what you used to make. It is <em>not</em> how much less you make. To find how much less it is, subtract 99% from 100%:
. <u>Your current salary is 1% less than what you used to make.</u>
