Answer:</h2>
By process of elimination, we can eliminate:
- <em>A:</em> <em>y = 3x - 1</em>
- <em>C: y = 3x + 1</em>
- <em>B: y = -3x</em>
<em>A and C</em> don't work because the given line has it's y-intercept at the origin, therefore, no y-intercept is written. <em>B </em>is not it either because the line <em>does not</em> go <em>down</em> from <em>left to right</em>, therefore, the slope is <em>not</em> negative.
The answer is <em>D: y = 3x</em> because since the line goes <em>up</em> from <em>left to right</em>, the slope is positive, and the y-intercept is the origin, so the equation will have no b.
Step-by-step explanation:
Nachelle goes out to lunch. The bill, before tax and tip, was $8.10. A sales tax of 4% was added on. Nachelle tipped 17% on the amount after the sales tax was added. How much was the sales tax? Round to the nearest cent.
Okay. For these types of problems, you must do order of operations (PEMDAS). Parenthesis, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction. Mind you that you do these steps from left to right, and multiplication and division is done from left to right. Same thing with addition and subtraction. With that being said, here are your answers if you do the expressions correctly.
