Well for two positive numbers subtracted to equal a negative number, the first number must have a value that is less than the second number. (Ex. 3-4= -1) In this case, you can conclude that x is less than y! (x<y)

What is this? Please answer with an explanation
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

Slope = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, slope = \frac{\text{Rise}}{\text{Run}}

Rise = -(y-intercept)

Run = (x-intercept)

From the graph attached,

y - intercept = -(4) = -4

x - intercept = 2

Therefore, slope the line given in the graph attached will be,

Slope = \frac{-4}{2} = -2

Slope = -2

The price of a fan is $15. This price is 27% lower than last week.
Goshia [24]

The price of fan was 20 Dollars 55 cents last week.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

The price last week = x

As the price is 27% lower than last week, therefore

(100%-27%) * Price last week = $15

73% * x = 15

Solving the percentage;

\frac{73}{100}*x=15\\ Multiplying\ both\ sides\ by\ 100\\100*\frac{73x}{100} = 15*100\\73x=1500\\Dividing\ both\ sides\ by\ 73\\\frac{73x}{73} = \frac{1500}{73} \\x= 20.55

The price of fan was 20 Dollars 55 cents last week.
