[Find the changes in the salary]
Increase = 28100 - 25300 = 2800

[the change, divided by the original amount. x100 to give the percentage]
percentage increase = 2800/25300 x 100 = 11.07%

Answer:

Increasing percentage = 11.06%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given  : In 2015, Gary earned $25,300. In 2016, he received a raise and earned $28,100.

To find : what would be a good estimate for the percent increase.

Solution : We have given

In 2005 , Gray earned = $25,300.

In 2016, raise and earned = $28,100.

Increasing percentage = \frac{increase\ value}{orignal\ value}*100.

Increased value = $28,100 -$25,300= $2800.

Increasing percentage = \frac{2800}{25300}*100.

Increasing percentage = \frac{2800}{253}.

Increasing percentage = 11.06%

Therefore,Increasing percentage = 11.06%.

What is the slope of the line shown in the graph?<br> A 3/2<br> B) 2/3<br> C) -3/4<br> D) -2/3
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

D.

Step-by-step explanation:

y-intercept is (0, 3)

x-intercept is (4.5, 0)

formula to find the slope from two points is

slope = m =  \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}  =  \frac{y1 - y2}{x1 - x2}  \\

then the slope of the line that crosses (0, 3) & (4.5, 0) is

m =  \frac{3 - 0}{0 - 4.5}  =  \frac{3}{ - 4.5}  =  -  \frac{3}{ \frac{9}{2} }  =  -  \frac{2}{3}
