Keith bought a pair of jeans at a discounted price of $91.00. The original price of the pair of jeans was $130.00. If Keith got
the same discount on a t-shirt that originally cost $23.00, what is the discounted price of the t-shirt?
2 answers:
So first step would be to find the percent Keith got off for his jeans. To do that subtract 130-91 to get a difference of 39, then multiply 39 by 100 which is 3,900 and then divide by 130 which will give you 30. Which means Keith got 30% off his jeans. So, to find how much his shirt cost if he got 30% off you would multiply the original price, 23 by 0.3 or 30 percent and you get 6.9 then subtract 23-6.9 to get 16.1. So Keith bought his shirt for $16.10.

Option C
<u> Answer: </u>
The equation in slope intercept form is
The slope is and y-intercept is
<u>Solution: </u>
The slope - intercept form equation of line is given as
y = mx + c ---- eqn(1)
Where m is the slope of the line. The coefficient of “x” is the value of slope of the line.
c is the y – intercept which is the value of y at the point where the line crosses the y-axis
From question, given that -5x - 12y = 11 --- eqn (2)
On converting equation (2) in slope – intercept form, that is adding 5x on both sides,
-5x - 12y + 5x = 5x + 11
-12y = 5x + 11
Now on dividing -12 on both sides,
---- eqn (3)
Comparing the given equation (3) with equation (1), we get
and
Hence Option C is correct.
