Answer:

$29.41

Step-by-step explanation:

You know the discount price is 25 and the original is unknown so call it x. The sale is 15% off and that means that the jeans are 85% of what they used to be since 100-15 is 85. Then you plug it into a formula of 25/x = 85/100 then you cross multiply to get 2500=85x and when you solve for x and round you get $29.41

What is the slope of the line

cupoosta [38]

Answer:

I believe the slope would be -2

Step-by-step explanation:

The line goes <u>down 2</u> boxes and <u>over 1</u> box before it intersects with another point. Knowing slope = $\frac{rise}{run}$ , we know that slope = $\frac{-2}{1}$ which is equal to -2.
