Nonlinear is correct the points are scattered across the graph :)
10.77(0.07) + 10.77 = $11.52
2.09(0.07) + 2.09 = $2.24
0.75(0.07) + 0.75 = $0.80
Add all of these up, and you get your total of A.) $14.56

Answer: Slope = -3/4</h3>
slope = rise/run
rise = -3 ... move down 3 units
run = 4 .... move to the right 4 units
============================================
Work Shown:
m = slope
m = rise/run
m = (change in y)/(change in x)
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (-17-(-2))/(24-4)
m = (-17+2)/(24-4)
m = -15/20
m = -3/4 is the slope
----------------
It basically means "move down 3 units, and move to the right 4 units"
So, slope = rise/run = -3/4
rise = -3 = move down 3 units
run = 4 = move to the right 4
You could express the slope as a decimal, and that would be -3/4 = -0.75, but you lose the rise and run values. So I recommend you keep the fraction.
Another problem with decimals is that sometimes we could have approximations that aren't exact. For example, if the slope was 2/3, then that approximates to 0.667 which may cause rounding errors down the line. Though I should point out that decimals do have their advantages in some cases.
13. x= 27/4 or 6 and 3/4
14. x= 27
15. x= 191/7 or 27 and 2/7
16. x= 83/15 or 5 8/15
the key to solving these is cross-multiplying and finding a common denominator, you can use photomath if you want to see the solving steps, hope this helps!
Answer:
7x - 1/9
Step-by-step explanation:
2/3 (6x - 1/6) + 3x
12x/3 - 2/18 + 3x
4x - 1/9 + 3x
7x - 1/9
