Answer:

n=-8.86

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope will determine the direction and the steepness of a function. It could be either increasing/decreasing depend on minus or plus. The formula for slope is

m= (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

If you add (n,-6) and (-9,-4)  to the equation, it will be:

m= (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

-15= (-6--4)/ (n--9)

-15= (-2)/ (n+9)

-15(n+9) = -2

-15n - 135=-2

-15n= -2 + 135

n= -133/15

n= -8 13/15= -8.86

12 is 30% of ____ <br> (Please explain)
natka813 [3]

Answer:

40

Step-by-step explanation:

In word problems, the word "of" usually means multiply.  Thus, for example, 10% of $50 is $5.  This is because we can write 10% as 0.10 or as 10/100 (which is 1/10) and then multiply:    (1/10)(50) = 5

So, we often see equations like:

    R = (1/2)D        meaning R is 50% of D, or R is half of D

Let x = the number we want to find

This problem says:

 "12 is 30%       of    what number?"

  12 = (30/100) *        x

12 = (3/10)x

(10/3)12 = x             [multiply both sides by (10/3)]

    40 = x        

Checking (very important):      

 Is   12 = (3/10)(40)    ?

       12 = (3)(4)    ?

       12 = 12     ? yes
