Answer:

$255

Step-by-step explanation:

To find amount that is subtracted off of the original price, you would need to multiply 300 by 15% as a decimal

The decimal form of 15% is 0.15, meaning that you would have to multiply 300 and 0.15

Once you do this, you will get 45

To find the sale price, you need to subtract the amount that is discounted, 45, from 300

Once you do this, you will get 255

This means that the sale price of the item is $255

sineoko [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For plane A,

Equation that represents the relationship between time 'x' and distance 'y' is,

y = 470x

By comparing this equation with the slope-intercept form of the equation,

y = mx + b

m = slope = 470

b = 0

Here, slope represents the speed of plane A.

Therefore, speed of plane A = 470 mi per hour

For plane B,

From the given table,

Slope of the graph = $\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

= $\frac{960-480}{2-1}$

= 480

Speed of plane B = 480 miles per hour

Since, speed of plane B is more than plane A,

Plane B is flying faster.
