Answer: Amount of change : $30

percent increase : 200%

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to analyze the information given:

  • <em>Wholesale price: $15 </em>
  • <em>Retail price: $45 </em>

To obtain the amount of change we have to subtract the wholesale price to the retail price:

Mathematically speaking:

45 -15 = $30

For the percent increase, the amount of change (30) is some percent of the original price (15). So:

30 / 15 =2 (decimal form)

If we multiply it by 100, the percentage is:

200%

Select the ordered pairs that satisfy the equation y=1/5x.Check all that apply.
vovikov84 [41]

Answer: C, E, F

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. Plug in the "x" and "y" values from the ordered pairs into the equation.
  2. For A: 3 = \frac{1(5)}{5} → 3 ≠ 1 → A is eliminated.
  3. For B: 5 = \frac{1(1)}{5} → 5 ≠ \frac{1}{5} → B is eliminated.
  4. For C: 2 = \frac{1(10)}{5} → 2 = 2 → C satisfies the equation.
  5. For D: 10 = \frac{1(4)}{5}→ 10 ≠ \frac{4}{5} → D is eliminated.
  6. For E: -1 = \frac{1(-5)}{5}→ -1 = -1 → E satisfies the equation.
  7. For F: 3 = \frac{1(15)}{5}→ 3 = 3 → F satisfies the equation.
  8. Therefore, C, E, and F are the answers.

Answer:

slope = \frac{5}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, - 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (2, 4) ← 2 points on the line

m = \frac{4+1}{2-0} = \frac{5}{2}
