Because if you know where the line crosses the y axis (the y intercept) you can plot a point there. Then with slope you can count to your next plotted point. With the 2 points you can now draw your line.
It depends on the given information.
McKenzie's work is correct if the two short sides are given as 5 and 13.
Cara's work is correct is almost correct if 5 is one leg, and 13 is the hypotenuse. The exact answer is 12, but she wrote it as approximately equal. That's her only problem.
By the way, Ddssaa122: when posting questions, the power of a number is written as 5^2 and not 52. If you copy and paste, please make sure you add the caret sign to indicate a power, or else you will suffer by getting a wrong answer. 5^2=5*5, 52=4*13, so they are not the same.
The answer is $48.60.
The hoodie by itself has a price of $45. If the sales tax if 8% of the price you’d have to calculate the sales tax and add it to the net amount.
(45)(.08) = 3.60
(45) + 3.60 = 48.60
X/58 (is roughly) 30
x/58 = 30
Multiply 58 on both sides.
x = 1,740
So it has to be c. 1,843
