Answer: -5

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for calculating the slope of a line is given as :

m=\frac{y_{2} }{x_{2}} - \frac{y_{1}}{x_{1}}

x_{1} = 8

x_{2} = 6

y_{1} = 5

y_{2} = 15

substituting into the formula , we have

m = \frac{15-5}{6-8}

m = \frac{10}{-2}

m = -5

Therefore the slope is -5

The original price is $60.The sales price is $45. What is the percent of discount?
MariettaO [177]
Hey there!

To start, first subtract 45 from 60 to find the amount of money taken off from the discount:
60-45
=15

Because 15 dollars have been taken off the original price, you can find the percent of discount by setting up this proportion where x represents the percent of discount:
15/60=x/100

Now, cross multiply and solve for x:
1500=60x
x=25

Therefore, your discount would be 25%.

Hope this helps and have a marvelous day! :)

The perimeter of a rectangle is 72 in. The base is 3 times the height. Find the area of the rectangle
Dovator [93]

Answer:

243 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1. Calculate the<em> base and height </em>of the rectangle

We have two conditions:

(1)   2b+ 2h = 72 in

(2)           b = 3h               Substitute in (1)

2(3h) + 2h = 72               Remove parentheses

   6h + 2h = 72               Combine like terms

           8h = 72               Divide by 6

             h = 9 in             Substitute in(2)

             b = 3 × 9

             b = 27 in

Step 2. Calculate the area of the rectangle

A = bh

A = 27 × 9

A = 243 in²

The area of the rectangle is 243 in².
