Answer:

<u>40</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's use the Rule of Three Simple to answer the question this way:

Stock price    Percentage

$ 15                    100%

$ 9                       x

15 * x = 9 * 100

15x = 900

x = 900/15

x = 60

Percentage decreased = 100 - 60

Percentage decreased = 40

<u>The company's stock decreased 40 percent</u>

A line passes through the point (-1,-5) and has a slope of -5.
Anna71 [15]
<h3>hello!</h3>

We're given a point that the line intersects and its slope.

Let's use Point-slope:-

\boxed{y-y1=m(x-x1)}

y1 = -5

m=-5

x1=-1

\boxed{y-(-5)=-5(x-(-1)}

\boxed{y+5=-5(x+1)}

Convert to slope-intercept:-

\boxed{y+5=-5x-5}

\boxed{y=-5x-5-5}

Finally,

\bigstar{\boxed{\pmb{y=-5x-10}}

<h3>note:-</h3>

Hope everything is clear; if you need any clarification/explanation, kindly let me know, and I will comment and/or edit my answer :)
