Answer:
C) 7
===========================================
Work Shown:
Use the slope formula
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
Plug in the given slope we want m = -5/3 and also the coordinates of the points. Then isolate r
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
-5/3 = (2-r)/(r-4)
-5(r-4) = 3(2-r) .... cross multiplying
-5r+20 = 6-3r
-5r+20+5r = 6-3r+5r .... adding 5 to both sides
20 = 6+2r
20-6 = 6+2r-6 ....subtracting 6 from both sides
14 = 2r
2r = 14
2r/2 = 14/2 .... dividing both sides by 2
r = 7
The slope of the line through (4,7) and (7,2) should be -5/3, let's check that
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (2-7)/(7-4)
m = -5/3
The answer is confirmed
The price charged for the batch of cookies is $8.925
Step-by-step explanation:
Marked price refers to the price at which an establishment offers to sale a product. For-profits to occur, marked price is always more than cost price (cost of producing the item)
Here the local bakery has marked up the price by 155%. This means that the local bakery has increased the marked price by 155% above the cost price accrued to them.
The cost price of the cookies= $ 3.5
Hence the increased marked price= (155/100) *3.5
Increased marked price= $ 5.425
Hence the charge customers need to pay for the cookies= increased marked price + cost price
Charge = $5.425+ $3.5= $8.925
the price charged for the batch of cookies is $8.925
Answer:
because a positive is over zero and a negative is below zero so from that you can tell that the opposite of any positive will be a negative.
