Let the function be y = ax + c.
For (-1,8), 8 = a(-1) + c → 8 = - a + c
For (5,6), 6 = a(5) + c → 6 = 5a + c
Subtract one from abother,
2 = - 6a => - 1/3 = a
Hence, 8 = - 1/3 + c → 23/3 = c
Relation is:
y = (-1/3)x + (23/3)
3y = - x + 23
3y = 23 - x
Answer:
25%
Step-by-step explanation:
% Change = Change ÷ Original × 100
% Change = 19 ÷ 76 × 100
% Change = .25 × 100
% Change = 25
The answer is always negative because if you multiply like signs, the answer is positive, unlike signs are always negative
