Answer:
Part 1) The rate of change is 
Part 2) The initial value is 
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The linear equation in slope intercept form is equal to

where
m is the slope or rate of change
b is the y-intercept or initial value
step 1
Find the slope or rate of change
The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

we have the points
(5,12)and (2,6)
substitute the values in the formula



therefore
The rate of change is 
step 2
Find the initial value
we have


substitute in the equation 

solve for b

---> initial value
The linear equation is equal to

The y-intercept or initial value is 2
Answer: x=12
Step-by-step explanation:
1/3 x -4
1/3x=4 <---- First add 4 to each side of the equation (moves the "-4")
1/3x(3)=4(3) <---- Muliply each side by "3" to get rid of the fraction
x=12
6
x^2 + 6x since 4x + 2x = 6x
Original price of the radio is $64.30
Sale price - $51.44
Discount rate - 20%
This means that $51.44 is the discounted price or is equivalent to 80% of the original price, since the 20% equivalent is deducted from the original price.
To get the original price, divide $51.44 by its corresponding percentage, 80%.
$51.44 / 80% = $64.30
To get the discount, multiply the original price by its discount rate
$64.30 x 20% = $12.86
To get the sales price, deduct the discount from the original price.
$64.30 - $12.86 = $51.44
100% - 20% = 80%
