Fred's sporting goods is providing a $5 discount on a bicycle that costs $80. What is the percentage of the discount?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Sonja [21]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

6.25%

Step-by-step explanation:

discount/ normal price

5/80

And we are trying to find out the percentage, so

x/100

Set the 2 equations equal to each other

5/80=x/100

Cross multiply

80x=500

Divide by 80 on both sides

x= 6.25

There is $500 in Holly's bank account. She takes out $50 from her account each month but doesn't put money back in. What is the
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

The rate of change or slope m  = -50

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of the line equation

y = mx+b

where

  • m is the rate of change or slope
  • b is the y-intercept

Given that there is $500 in Holly's bank account.

Thus, the y-intercept b = 500

It is stated that she takes out $50 from her account each month but doesn't put money back in.

It means the rate of change or slope is decreasing.

Thus, the rate of change or slope m  = -50

<u>EXTRA BONUS!</u>

We can also determine the line equation by substituting m = -50 and b = 500 in the slope-intercept form

y = mx+b

y = -50x + 500

Here:

The slope m = -50

The y-intercept = 500

Which point is Not on a circle with a center of (0,0) and a radius of 10?
Burka [1]
It is A because the radius is 10 which means that if x=0 then y must equal 10. (0,5) would be inside of the circle. If this doesn't make sense graph the circle and the points and you'll see what I mean.

Write an equation of the line that passes through each points (5,6) (3.4)
ioda

Answer:

y = x + 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by finding the slope of this line.

If a slanting line goes through (x_{0},\, y_{0}) and (x_{1},\, y_{1}), where x_{0} \ne x_{1}, the slope of this line would be:

\begin{aligned}m &= \frac{y_{1} - y_{0}}{x_{1} - x_{0}}\end{aligned}.

The line in this question goes through (5,\, 6) and (3,\, 4). Hence, the slope of this line would be:

\begin{aligned}m &= \frac{y_{1} - y_{0}}{x_{1} - x_{0}} \\ &= \frac{6 - 4}{5 - 3} \\ &= 1\end{aligned}.

If a slanting line with a slope of m and goes through the point (x_{0},\, y_{0}), the equation of this line in the point-slope form would be:

y - y_{0} = m,\, (x - x_{0}).

For the line in this question, the slope is m = 1. Take (5,\, 6) as the chosen point on this line. The point-slope form equation of this line would be:

y - 6 = (x - 5).

Rewrite to obtain the equation of this line in the slope-intercept form:

y = x + 1.
