Answer:

Total discount = $39.50

                  or 46.47 %

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to figure out what she will pay for the shoes.  She is getting 30 percent off the 65 dollars.

Discount = price * percent off

                = 65*.3

                = 19.50

The cost of her shoes is the price minus the discount.

Cost = 65- 19.5

        = 45.50


To find the total discount, take the original price and subtract the final cost.

Total discount = 85-45.50

                        = 39.50

To find the total percent discount, we use the formula

      total percent discount = (original - final)/original * 100

                                             = (85- 45.50)/85 * 100

                                             = 39.5/85*100

                                              = 46.47%

the slope goes by several names

• Δy over Δx

• rise over run

• gradient

• constant of proportionality

however, is the same cat wearing different costumes.

to get the slope of any straight line, we simply need two points off of it, so let's use the ones provided in that

\begin{array}{|cc|ll} \cline{1-2} \stackrel{years}{x}&\stackrel{population}{y}\\ \cline{1-2} 1990&1027974\\ 2013&688701\\ \cline{1-2} \end{array}\hspace{5em} (\stackrel{x_1}{1990}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{1027974})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{2013}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{688701}) \\\\\\ \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise} {\stackrel{y_2}{688701}-\stackrel{y1}{1027974}}}{\underset{run} {\underset{x_2}{2013}-\underset{x_1}{1990}}} \implies \cfrac{-339273}{23}\implies -14751\qquad \stackrel{rate~of}{change}

let's notice, is negative since the population decreased.
