Answer: option C is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a straight line can be represented in the slope intercept form as

y = mx + c

Where

c represents the y intercept

m = slope = (change in the value of y in the y axis) / (change in the value of x in the x axis)

Slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

Slope = (8 - 5)/(4 - 0) = 3/4

If two lines are parallel, it means that they have the same slope. Therefore, the slope of the line passing through (- 3, 9) is 3/4

To determine the y intercept, we would substitute m = 3/4, x = - 3 and y = 9 into y = mx + c. It becomes

9 = 3/4 × - 3 + c

9 = - 9/4 + c

c = 9 + 9/4

c = 45/4

The equation becomes

y = 3x/4 + 45/4

The price of a pair of shoes increases from $65 to $81. What is the percent increase to the
andriy [413]

Answer:

Percent increase = 25%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Old price of shoes = $65

New price of shoes = $81

Difference = 81 - 65

Difference = 16

Percent increase = \frac{Difference}{Old\ price}*100

Percent increase = \frac{16}{65}*100

Percent increase = 0.246 * 100

Percent increase = 24.6%

Rounding off to nearest whole number

Increase = 25%

Hence,

Percent increase = 25%
