I believe you would calculate this like so;

We want 18% less than 100% of that amount therefore the single multiplier we would use is as follows:

(100% - 18%) = 82% 

Which alternatively = 0.82

Does that make sense? If not I can explain it a bit more. Please let me know.

Answer:

0.82

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to find the single multiplier used to show an amount decreased by 18%.

Since amount is decreasing by 18%, this means that 82% (100-18) of the amount is remaining.

The multiplier will be in decimal form, so we will convert 82% to decimal as:

\frac{82}{100}=0.82

Therefore, our required single multiplier is 0.82.

The equation of line f is y − 9 = -5(x + 7) . Line g is parallel to line f and passes through (3, -8) . What is the equation of
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

The slope intercept form: y = - 5x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of line f is y − 9 = -5(x + 7)

You need to find the slope of line f

y - 9 =  -5(x + 7)

In point slope form: y - y1 = m(x - x1) where m = slope

In the line f, slope m = -5

Parallel lines, slope is the same so slope of line g is also equal - 5

Line g passes through (3, - 8) so equation in point slope form:

y + 8 = -5(x - 3)

y + 8 = -5x + 15

y = -5x + 7    <-----this is slope intercept form
