20% Subtract starting value minus final value.
Divide that amount by the absolute value of the starting value.
Multiply by 100 to get percent decrease.
If the percentage is negative, it means there was an increase and not an decrease.

2a + 3b = 6
5a + 2b = 4

We multiply the first equation by 5 and the second by 2 and and subtract the second from the first:

10a + 15b = 30
-10a -4b = -8

11b = 22
b = 2

2a + 3(2) = 6
2a = 0
a = 0

Checking,
5(0) + 2(2) = 4
4 = 4, true

10x + 60 = 9x - 30<br><img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=10x%20%2B%2060%20%3D%209%20%5Ctimes%20%20-%2030%20%5C%5C%20" id="TexForm

Answer:

x = - 90

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

10x + 60 = 9x - 30 ( subtract 9x from both sides )

x + 60 = - 30 ( subtract 60 from both sides )

x = - 90

Howard Slater age 44 an actor expected his income to the coin future years he decides to take out a 20-year payment life policy
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

Individuals end to continue paying the premiums of the automobile insurance as a habit. However, serious thoughts and putting in element of strategizing helps to reduce the premium in most cases. At times, there is a sudden like on the part of the insurer even for a flawless driver.

A good look up and research of the insurance websites can be of real help in comparing whether a better deal is offered by the other insurance companies, or whether a certain change in the policy or small adjustments of the term would give benefit to the customer.

In case a speeding ticket is received, or an accident is mentioned in the driving history, it is maintained there in for a period of three to five years. Thus, the premium increases substantially. A change of insurer is advised in such situations, where a major search for an insurer, who does not pay that much importance to these details, is to be carried on.

Again, having a teenager driver in the family calls for a caution as the insurance premium increases drastically in such occasion. Having clean driving record of the parents, or kids commuting to far away schools without cars help in such situation.

A line includes the points 2, 10 and 0, 2 what is its equation in slope intercept form ​
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

y = -4x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx + b ( slope-intercept)

1. Find Slope:

\frac{y^2 - y^1}{x^2 - x^1}

Lets name 2 as y2 and 10 as y1. And 0 as x2 and 2 as x1.

\frac{2-10}{0-2}  =  \frac{-8}{2} = -4

m/slope = -4

2. Find y-intercept:

y = mx +b

2 = -4(0) + b

= 2 = b

Y-intercept/b = 2

3. Put into slope-intercept form:

y = mx + b

= y = -4x + 2

Hope that helps! :D
