<u>y = 3x - 2</u>
-- The ' 3 ' is the slope. If you double it to ' 6 ', the line is steeper.
-- The ' -2 ' is the y-intercept. If you double it to ' -4 ', the line crosses the y-axis lower.
Choice <u>(a)</u> says that . . . "... steeper, and lower y-intercept".
Answer:
$161.28288 or $161.28 if rounded
Step-by-step explanation:
first find 10% of the original cost
186.67/10 =18.667
18.667 x 2 = 37.334 (20%)
186.67 - 37.334 = 149.336
to find the tax, mulitple 149.336 x 1.08
1.08 because, 100% of the cost, plus 8% of the cost for tax
= 161.28288
X = jane, y = jasmine, z = jocelyn
x + y + z = 56
x = 3z
y = 2z + 2
3z + 2z + 2 + z = 56
6z + 2 = 56
6z = 56 - 2
6z = 54
z = 54/6
z = 9 <==== jocelyn
x = 3z
x = 3(9)
x = 27 <=== jane
y = 2z + 2
y = 2(9) + 2
y = 18 + 2
y = 20 <=== jasmine
20 x 18 = 360
