Answer:

y = 0.88x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Discount = 20\%

Sales\ Tax = 8\%

Required

Determine the final price

First, we need to determine the sales price after the discount.

Discount = 20\% * x

Discount = 0.20 * x

Discount = 0.20x

Sales\ Price = x - Discount

Sales\ Price = x - 0.20x

Sales\ Price = 0.80x

Next, is to determine the sales tax.

Sales\ Tax = 8\% * x

Sales\ Tax = 0.08 * x

Sales\ Tax = 0.08x

Final Price, y is then calculated as thus:

y = Sales\ Price + Sales\ Tax

y = 0.80x + 0.08x

y = 0.88x

Write the equation of the line with the given slope and y- intercept. 1.Slope is -2 and a y-intercept of 5.
Monica [59]

Since the slope is -2, then m=-2. Since the y-intercept is 5, b=5. Then, we can create the equation: y=-2x+5


Since the slope is \frac{3}{4}, then m=\frac{3}{4}. Since the y-intercept is -3, b=-3.

Then, we can create the equation: y=\frac{3}{4}x-3

Give brainliest! Right triangle ABC is on a coordinate plane. Segment AB is on the line y = 2 and is 3 units long. Point C is on
Anastasy [175]

Answer: y coordinate is 6

Step-by-step explanation:

6=1/2(3)(h)

If you solve for H then

h=4

So, add 4 to the line y=2

y=2+4

2+4= 6

Hence, the possible y coordinate of point C is 6

Hope this helped!

I would really appreciate if marked brainlest !

Thank you !
