Answer:

The percent decrease was 20%

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this, use the percent change equation.

(New - Old)/(Old) * 100 = % Change

Now input 48 for the New price and 60 for the Old price.

(48 - 60)/(60) * 100 = % Change

12/60 * 100 = % Change

.2 * 100 = % Change

20 = % Change

Setler [38]

Answer:

The answere is (9,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

first equation

x - 2y = 3

9 - 2(3) = 3

9-6 = 3

3 = 3

second equations

2x - 3y = 9

2(9) - 3(3) = 9

18 - 9 =9

9 = 9

x - 2y = 3

x = 2y + 3

2(2y + 3 ) - 3y = 9

4y +6 - 3y = 9

y + 6 = 9

y =3

x - 2(3) = 3

x - 6 =3

x = 9

so (9,3)

Use an equation to find the value of k

Delvig [45]

$\boxed{k=4}$

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

We know that the slope of a line is given by:

$m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}} \\ \\ Where: \\ \\ (x_{1},y_{1}) \ and \ (x_{2},y_{2}) \ are \ points \ that \ lie \ on \ the \ line \\ \\ \\ Here: \\ \\ (x_{1},y_{1})=(-2,k) \\ \\ (x_{2},y_{2})=(2,0) \\ \\ m=-1 \\ \\ \\ -1=\frac{0-k}{2-(-2)} \\ \\ -1=\frac{-k}{4} \\ \\ -k=4(-1) \\ \\ \boxed{k=4}$
