The decrease was 27%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Old value = $980

New value = $720

Decrease = Old value - New value

Decrease=980-720=\$260

Percent decrease = \frac{Decreased/ amount}{Old value}*100

Percent\ decrease=\frac{260}{980}*100\\Percent\ decrease=0.265*100\\Percent\ decrease= 26.5\%

Rounding off to near whole percent

Percent decrease = 27%

The decrease was 27%.

Write the equation of the line that contains the given point and has the given slope.
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Hey there!!

What is slope-intercept form :

... y = mx + b

( a ) Given :

... ( 2 , -2 ) and slope=1.4

... y = mx + b

... -2 = 2×1.4 + b

... -2 = 2.8 + b

... -4.8 = b

The slope-intercept form :

... y = 1.4x - 4.8

( b ) Given :

... ( -1 , 4 ) and slope = -3.

y = mx + b

... 4 = -3×-1 + b

... 4 = 3 + b

... 1 = b

The slope-intercept form :

... y = -3x + 1

Note :

( m = slope and b = y-intercept )

Hope my answer helps!!
