Answer: a = -7.68
<u>STEPS:</u>
- Subtract 13.61 from both sides
- Simplify
- Divide both sides by 3
To find the slope you have to use this formula:
First chose any 2 random points from the graph, im gonna chose (0,1) and (-4,4). It doesn't matter which one is the x1 or x2, what matter is they have to be in the same order, you can't have (-4,4) as a (x1,y2), That's wrong.
= -3/4
1.053, 1.305, 1.350, 1.53
Let, the original amount = x
First discount = x * 0.20 = 0.20x
Amount after first discount = x - 0.20x = 0.80x
Second discount = 0.80x * 0.15 = 0.12x
Amount after second discount = 0.80x - 0.12x = 0.68x
Difference would be: x-0.68x = 0.32x
So, Your Answer would be 32%
Hope this helps!
Well, since they are different degrees, there aren’t much similarities.
But both can have y-intercepts, x-intercepts, and can be graphed on a 2-dimensional plane. However, other than that, there may not be a lot of similarities.
A standard quadratic function is of the form ()=2++
f
(
x
)
=
a
x
2
+
b
x
+
c
and has the shape of a parabola, while a linear function is of the form ()=+
f
(
x
)
=
a
x
+
b
and is just a line.
